This is a compilation of photos taken recently showing the conditions of the county run facility, in Bennettsville, South Carolina. A photographer was asked to come take photos of the dogs and cats to help promote them online for adoptions and instead it has turned into an expose'.

Many rescues and an adoption have occured as a result, but they have a long way to go.

Support the efforts of the newly formed Humane Society of Marlboro County, to help them acquire the funds to take over the city AND county run "shelters" and have it put in the hands of people who put the needs of the animals first.

  • This is heartbreaking! Completely unacceptable... I would have liked to have seen a plea at the end of the video asking for rescue for the poor kitties stuck in that rat hole too. It seems as though everyone always forgets the cats....I've shared this video on my FB! I pray that something gets done about this!

  • @jennanicole Hi Jenna, I'm sorry I didn't do a great job of editing text, but just know that this was the first time I've used MovieMaker software, after having visited the hell hole shelter & I was proud to have figured out how to caption at that point. I'm a very amateur photographer, volunteering for the Scotland Co. Humane Society in NC, who as a favor to the Hum.Soc. of Marlboro Co,came to photography their available animals,& instead turned it into an expose' into the attrocities there.

  • Animal abuse at it's finest, legal because it's a county shelter? They should all be charged with neglect and cruelty and the shelter closed until a new one is constructed.

  • The video says that the "newly formed" Humane Society is now taking care of the county animals. With donations and volunteers, the Humane Society WILL slowly improve that shelter. What the average tax payer does not always know is the county "animal pound" is run with our county tax dollars. What we can do as citizens is to flood the Marlboro County office with letters telling them to give more county tax dollars to the dog shelter because this inhumane treatment will not be tolerated.

  • This is disgusting. Those poor animals :(

  • I'm about to post this video on "Discover South Carolina" Facebook page. Wonder how long it'll stay there?

  • You know I have been telling anyone I know, that owns a animal, to get it spayed/neutered. I hate people that breed animals for profit. They don't care who the animal ends up with, which is wrong in so many ways because not everyone is kind hearted. There are a lot of people that say, "well they're just animals" or "they have no feelings." All I have to say to the first part is, well you're just you, what makes you so special? Its been proven that animals have the same pain receptors as humans.

  • who can tell us what to do? how can we help? this is HORROR! unbelievable horror!

  • @ScotlandHumane....I have seen this posted on fb as well and have some rescue friends and kind citizens all over who want to get involved in getting this huge exposure and getting down to the bottom of this! Please contact me by email so we can get this going!! this has to stop! the County is greedy and that's why this is taking place!! thanks! naveah1970@yahoo.com

  • What can we do to help you with this situation. The conditions at this facility are absolutely deplorable and heartbreaking. This video is being shared on FB, people are asking to help. Tell us what the best course of action is for you and these poor animals.

    Our hearts are breaking for them and this is totally unacceptable!!

  • THIS IS DISGUSTING ~ THE OTHER VIDEO IS EVEN WORSE THAT THIS ONE!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THOSE PEOPLE? HOW CAN THEY LET ANIMALS LIVE LIKE THIS? WHERE IS THE SPCA? WHERE IS THE HSUS? THIS IS DEPLORABLE!!!

  • I keep trying to post?
