Sumter Disaster Animal Response Team has helped the ASPCA, Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International over the years to move many animals to safety.

We have transported dogs from puppy mills, and dogs and cats from natural disaster stricken areas. And, we have helped MANY animal shelters with moving animals either to increase chances of adoption or ahead of an imminent danger, such as a hurricane.

After the devastating earthquake in Japan we were there to assist Humane Society International's efforts on the ground and we were instrumental in the relief efforts after the BP oil spill in 2011
