Agents for the Charleston County Sheriff’s Department are trying to identify the person who abandoned 11 dogs near the Ravenel Game Preserve. The facility director informed her CCSO of the discovery, and an animal control agent transferred the dog to the Charleston Animal Society. The dog is a mixed breed and there are also puppies. Authorities say it’s illegal to abandon pets. Those who cannot care for animals must ensure water, food and shelter. Leaving them outside of an animal shelter will not accomplish this. If you have information about who is responsible, please call the CCSO at 843-202-1700 and ask Caroline Her Sewell, Deputy Director of Animal Control.
