About
Description
The Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF) in Walnut Creek, CA is an award-winning and nationally recognized brand that is dedicated to its unique dual mission of People Rescuing Animals. Animals Rescuing People®. With over 47,000 adoptions and counting, ARF not only saves lives but also strengthens the human-animal bond through life-changing programs for children, seniors, veterans, and community members in need.
ARF's journey began in 1991, in a donated office space, with a small group of dedicated volunteers who worked tirelessly to save 157 dogs and cats in their first year. Recognizing the remarkable impact animals have on people's lives, ARF's board of directors established their dual mission. They introduced humane education programs for children and therapy animals for seniors, veterans, and more individuals in need.
In addition, ARF developed programs to help low-income pet guardians keep their pets in homes. Despite humble beginnings, ARF's dreams became reality with the construction of a 37,700-square-foot animal care facility and community center in Walnut Creek. This facility, completed in 2003, sets the standard for animal sheltering by providing homely condos for their shelter guests.
ARF's efforts have continued to expand with the inclusion of a Pets and Vets Training Center and an animal care wing and veterinary clinic for veterans in 2021. Thanks to the support of their dedicated supporters, ARF has found loving families for over 47,000 dogs and cats, performed over 56,000 spay and neuter surgeries to combat pet overpopulation, and graduated 59 rescue-turned-service dogs with their veteran handlers. ARF's innovative programs bring animals and people together, enriching each other's lives.
Their vision is to serve as a local and national model, ensuring every pet has a stable and loving home to complete their natural lifespan. You can get involved with ARF by making a donation to support their lifesaving work, signing up for email updates and inspiring stories, volunteering your time, or adopting a furry friend. With adoption and business hours available, ARF welcomes your support as they continue to rescue animals and make a positive impact on people's lives
