Welcome to SoCo Rescue!

Rescue Knows No State Lines - Georgia Roots, New Jersey Homes

Southern Comfort Animal Rescue, Inc. (SoCo Rescue) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to saving the lives of abused, abandoned, and unwanted companion animals in rural Georgia. As the only resource for homeless dogs in our county, we provide critical medical care, rehabilitation, and love until they are ready for their journey north. From our rescue in Georgia to our foster network in Central New Jersey, SoCo serves as the bridge to forever homes.  While dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes are our primary focus, we also occasionally offer cats for adoption.  Read more about us and see our list of available animals.

Adoption Process

SoCo Rescue: From Georgia to New Jersey 

Every month, our President & CEO Scott Bennett drives 850 miles from Tarrytown, GA to NJ with a bus full of rescued dogs and pups searching for forever homes. Eager volunteers welcome the bus upon arrival, help place the pups in foster care, and prepare them for adoption.  You can visit our facebook page or Instagram feed to see countless stories of our dogs finding their way to loving families.  All potential adopters are required to complete an adoption application  prior to  adopting any of our animals  Read more about the adoption process.
