North Shore will put the dogs up for adoption here.
Later Thursday, another 21 pups will arrive from Orangeburg, South Carolina.
Additionally, North Shore is requesting donations for water and dog supplies because they will be also heading south to do more work in the coming days.

They are asking for everything from unused bottled water to dog bowls, as well as paper towels, new or unused towels, new treats, litter boxes, wee wee pads and wire crates.
Drop off begins Thursday at their pet store on Lewyt Street in Port Washington.
