D.A.R.T. - Duplin Animal Rescue Team
Our Goal:
We rescue puppies & adoptable animals that are scheduled to be euthanized. Animals that just haven't had enough time to find thier place in this world. We are their resting place until they fly off into thier new home.
Who We Are:
In April of 2004, a group of concerned citizens exposed the practices at the Duplin County Animal Control facility in Kenansville, N.C. of killing 25-plus animals in a small concrete gas chamber at one time.
Due to public outcry - this facility has ceased this barbaric & inhumane torture and over the past year, the animal control facility in Kenansville has made major improvements.Each week countless companion animals are still dying by euthanasia, not only in this county but many.... Our goal is to rescue as many animals as we can in an effort to find loving homes for these abandoned animals. Please contact. D.A.R.T. to adopt your new best friend!
In Dedication:
We dedicate this website as a memorial to Avis, a little black dachshund mix who was the beloved companion of a former Duplin-County resident. Avis was found wandering the streets of Wallace, NC (in Duplin County) fifteen years ago.... lost and alone. What started out as a chance meeting - wound up to be the beginning of an inseparable bond between a special person and a special dog. We salute Avis for finding her 'human' ....and showering her with love and devotion each day for fifteen years. We appreciate them watching over D.A.R.T. and supporting our vision - that NO dog or puppy should die alone in a cold, dark jail cell.
With help of our generous fosters and donations we are able to keep on doing a service to those who cannot speak for themselves...up to date we are SO happy to say that we have rescued 3400 animals and have made many,many happy forever homes!!!
Thanks to those who believe with thier eyes and hearts; those who have been with us from begining until end...you are the reason we are able to keep up our mission.br>
