Helping Haiti
ARF wants to help those cats and dogs in Haiti that
have been left abandoned, injured and hungry in Haiti after the recent
earthquake. ARFwill donate $5 of every adoption
fee for our animals in the month of February to the Humane
Society of the United States. It's the least we can do to help our
friends in Haiti.
Dogs of the Week
Casper
Casper
is a 44 pound, 2 year old or less, severely
underweight purebred Boxer boy. He is as tall and long as he will ever
be, but he should put on 10-15 pounds as
he gets care and good nutrition. He is eating well and being fed four
times a day. He has one blue and one brown eye, and is deaf. He is
neutered. He seems fairly indifferent to other dogs, though he does show
some signs of wanting to play with them. He seems people focused and he
likes to cuddle. More info forthcoming as we get to know him better.
To learn more about Casper, please complete our
Online
Adoption Application.
Henry
Henry
was abandoned by his owner at a high-kill shelter which is
unimaginable with any animal, but wait until you meet this guy, it will
break your heart. Henry is a sweet, loving beagle and what a
tail wagger. Like all the ARF animals, he deserves a second chance
home and one with lots of love! He will do great in a single dog
home, a multi-dog home and he even likes cats. Get your application
in soon as we hope Henry will find his new home very soon. For more information about
Cupcake, please complete our

Adoption Application.
Cupcake
Cupcake is a gorgeous little female/spayed Doxie mix. She is blk/tan
in color and 6-8 mos. old. She has a nice, friendly disposition and
would make a great family pet.
This
poor guy has obviously not had the luxury of enjoying a home
type environment and was more than likely left outside a lot. He
is as sweet as they come but will need obedience training to
learn basic commands and how to walk nicely on a leash. He gets
along with all dogs, cats and loves to play with his foster
brother and sisters. With a lot of love and patience, he will
thrive in a family type environment. He is around 2yrs old and
70lbs.
Seems
very sweet. This sweet girl loves to be close to her
people, she would do better in a home with a calm older dog or
no other dogs at all. Appears to be a retriever X--quiet
girl. This girl is completely housebroken and a joy to be
around. She needs some TLC...could stand to gain 4-8 LBS. If you
are looking for a baby to love and spoil....Fill out
Online
Adoption Application today...and make your home her
fur-ever home.

Porchie
Hi ! My name is "Porchie".
I know my name is unusual but I have come to love it and you will see
why when you read my story. I am a tiger stripe tabby with the
most beautiful green eyes you ever did see! I was rescued thankfully ,
by and ARF volunteer. After spending a harsh winter and a hot summer
eating on her porch, I finally decided life on the inside looked really
comfortable and decided to come in. I am very accepting of other cats,
dogs, and kids ! All I want to be is LOVED. I will be your most loyal
and loving companion. The only thing I want is lots of hugs and kisses
and I love a good belly rub too!
