NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - On Thursday morning the Charleston Animal Society helped several Lowcountry pets in a unique way. Staff drove around to several houses in North Charleston, picked up pets in the Pets for Life program and brought them to a mobile clinic.
Those pets were then given an exam, vaccines and tested for heartworms. Once the treatment is done, staff take the pets back to their owners.
The goal of the program is to help underserved areas in North Charleston that don’t have nearby veterinary clinics. It works like a door-to-door program where staff go around to neighbors and ask if they need help.
