Palmetto Animal League (PAL) is a private, non-profit, no kill animal rescue organization and so much more.
PAL’s unique approach to animal rescue creates a powerful resource for animals and their people. Saving animals in need is at the heart of everything PAL does and that includes providing pet owners with the support they need to love and grow with their animals.
“When we opened the Palmetto Animal League Adoption Center 10 years ago, many loving families wanted to add another pet to their family, but expensive veterinary care was a roadblock,” says PAL President Amy Campanini.
PAL quickly realized a compelling need for economical veterinary care in the community. After much planning and consideration, the Palmetto Animal League Veterinary Clinic officially opened its doors in 2012. Setting quality, affordable care as the priority, PAL’s clinic focuses on wellness and prevention.
“Far too often, folks are forced to give up a pet due to inability to pay,” says Campanini. “We help animals and their families by providing routine care so they avoid costly veterinary bills for conditions that can be prevented like heartworms, fleas, dermatitis and many others.”
Thanks to PAL supporters, including donors and clinic patrons, thousands of hardworking Lowcountry families now have access to affordable, loving veterinary care at the PAL Veterinary Clinic.
“For many animals, it is their first visit to a vet,” says Campanini. “Accessible care helps keep pets in a caring home for their lifetime, decreasing the number of animals surrendered to shelters.”
Each year, PAL rescues hundreds of cats and dogs, many with costly needs. Proceeds from PAL’s veterinary clinic help make this possible.
“As a no kill rescue, we vow to establish compassionate, life-saving programs,” explains Campanini. “When you bring your pet to our clinic, you are helping PAL save homeless animals.”
The PAL Veterinary Clinic is a resource for every pet and every family, offering wellness exams, vaccines, microchipping, nail trims and more at affordable prices.
“Our customers are a combination of people who need the affordability of our services and those who support our mission,” explains Campanini. “Folks with multiple animals and people who rescue on their own find our clinic essential. At PAL, we see access to high quality, affordable health care for pets as a vital part of lifesaving.”
