MEET OUR ADOPTABLE PETS & READ THEIR STORIES

ALL OUR ADOPTABLE PETS ARE LISTED AT THE ABOVE LINK




We are an organization here to help pets, the public, and other rescue organizations. We are a No-Kill foster home rescue with 501(c)3 non-profit status.

For pets taken in by ARC, we provide a safe haven and adoption availability to a well-matched home. For those pets that are not adopted, we provide sanctuary status for their lifetime.
We also have a strong emphasis on owner education. Knowing why a pet behaves aS it does helps you understand how to re-shape an unwanted behavior - or encourage those that are wanted. Most pets are turned in to rescues because of behavior "problems" which can be changed when the owner knows what to do. It may take some time, but we hope to help.
To the public, we offer assistance with pet behavior issues (in-depth for felines) and questions, selection of which pet and/or breed would be suitable for your lifestyle, and contacts with appropriate rescue groups.

Rescue organizations may call us to get a pet on TV and let people know who and where you are. Our goal is for all pets to find a good home, not just the ones directly under ARC's care.

ARC pets live in foster homes. As most of the foster "parents" work (to support these pets), visiting the pets is typically on weeknights and weekends. Times to visit are based on what is convenient for you and possible for the foster home and can be set up when we return your call or e-mail. Foster homes allow the pets to live in a stress-free and cage-free environment while waiting for you.
