Our Alliance
National research demonstrates
that only when very high volumes of sterilizations are performed is
there a significant enough impact on the overall pet overpopulation
problem to create change.
As the first ever high-volume, low-cost clinic in the region, SNAC will
bring to the area what is needed to make a difference.
Fundamental to the success of SNAC will be the development and
maintenance of a strong, closely knit alliance of animal welfare
organizations in South Carolina and Georgia.
By offering its services to the alliance of animal welfare
organizations, SNAC will enable the organizations to free up much needed
resources and time to focus more exclusively on animal rescue,
rehabilitation, and re-homing services.
The animal shelters and rescue groups that participate in the alliance
will send homeless animals from their organizations as well as direct
the public's animals to SNAC. Shelters and groups will find a dramatic
rise in numbers of sterilizations by linking up with SNAC.
Shelters and groups that sign onto the SNAC alliance will coordinate
with SNAC on a regular basis to set up surgery days. How will this
work? A shelter might sign up to send 25 animals one Monday, 30 the
next, and 20 the following. The shelter will send some of its own
shelter animals as well as some belonging to the public.
SNAC will send its transport vehicle to that shelter to pick up the
animals belonging to the shelter and the public, and will return the
animals the following morning. The animals belonging to the public will
be dropped off and picked up at that shelter in that county.
Despite current efforts by shelters and rescue groups to offer low-cost
programs and even low-volume clinics to the public, the Humane Alliance
model used by SNAC will allow for much greater volumes of surgeries to
be performed-providing a proven solution to pet homelessness.
Shelters and rescue groups will be able to advertise and promote
low-cost surgeries offered by SNAC without having to spend the time and
resources on offering those services themselves. The shelters and
rescue groups, as alliance members, will essentially act as facilitators
to the public by pointing pet owners and their animals to SNAC.
Another major advantage for shelters and rescue groups will be the
ability to have all animals spayed and neutered prior to adoption, which
for some shelters and rescue groups is still not the case due to limited
time and resources.
SNAC encourages all shelters and groups interested in ending pet
overpopulation in the region to contact SNAC to sign onto the alliance.
Ongoing communication from SNAC will help create and maintain a strong
alliance whereby shelter intake will ultimately be reduced and
euthanizations decreased.
SNAC invites shelters and groups to set up meetings with SNAC by
telephone or in person to learn more about the alliance and clinic.
Informational sessions can be set up for individual or multiple
organizations to learn more about SNAC.
