Humane Society SPCA of Sumpter County, Inc.: KONG Toys Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

The Kong toys were used within the shelter to keep the dogs entertained.

How many pets did this grant help?

All dogs while sheltered were helped, approximately 50.

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.
