Hoarding Situation-URGENT RESCUE NEEDED

I am putting out this plea for a fellow animal lover who doesn’t want to see this dog put down. Here is the information I have. If you could help or point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. I am in NJ, but the dog is in South Carolina


This is a long shot but I thought I'd try anyway. I'm dealing with a pet hoarding situation near Clemson, SC (40+ cats and 12 dogs). There is a very large black lab female who was hit by a car last year. She's a young dog, so the owner opted for surgery rather than euthanasia. The vet was optimistic but it turns out the dogs back legs are paralyzed. She'll never walk again, and she doesn't have any bladder control.

The pet hoarder abandoned all these animals leaving a roommate there to take care of them in a rental house. The landlord is wanting most of the animals removed by the end of the month. I pretty much figured this one will have to be euthanized, but a volunteer that went out to the property said the dog is beautiful and even though she drags her back legs, she acts happy and friendly. Do you know of any rescues for a disabled dog like this?
