Overcrowded, understaffed, and without enough resources is the unfortunate reality for the North Port Animal Rescue Garage.

If they can’t take in more dogs, the people at the North Port Animal Rescue Garage know they’ll likely be put down.

The Rescue Garage is issuing an urgent cry for help. They need money, and volunteers, but most of all, homes for the dogs currently there, that deserve better.

President and Founder of Rescue Garage, Silvia McCoy said, “every rescue right now is 100% full. Every shelter out there is at capacity.”

Until that changes the rescue simply cannot go on.

McCoy said, “we can’t take on any more dogs. We can’t We can’t go out to these shelters that are having to perform mass euthanasia is because of space. We can’t go out there and mitigate that.”

All this devastates McCoy to her core. If she can’t take in more, she knows they’ll likely be put down. So now, her rescue garage is issuing an urgent cry for help.

That’s because she just can’t fail the dogs that were failed by many other people.

McCoy said, “everything we can do for these dogs we’re doing. But we can’t do it without help. And we’re asking for help.”

This is a developing story and we will give you more details when we get them.
