🐾 TEMPORARY FOSTER NEEDED FOR SHADOW! 🐾

We are occasionally looking for temporary foster homes for some of our ARC residents, and this gorgeous boy, Shadow, in particular needs your help! ❤️

Shadow is heartworm positive and is looking for a temporary foster home for approximately one month while he waits for his medical treatment to begin.

We believe Shadow would do best as the only pet in the home, so if you don’t have any other animals, we urge you to submit an application!

Fostering gives a shelter pet the opportunity to enjoy a quiet, loving home and a little break from shelter life while they wait for their medical treatment to begin. 🐶❤️

If you’re interested in helping Shadow, please submit a foster application here:

Foster Application

Please consider opening your home for just one month and giving Shadow the break he deserves! 🏡🐾

🐾❤️ NOVEMBER IS ADOPT A SENIOR PET MONTH! ❤️🐾

Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? And who says an older cat can’t bring endless joy into your life? 🐶🐱

November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month, and it’s the perfect time to open your heart and home to a furry friend in their golden years.

Senior pets often have so much love left to give! They can be:
🐾 Calm, loving, and wonderful companions
🐾 Past the puppy and kitten stage
🐾 Grateful for a cozy bed and a safe place to call home
🐾 Ready to fill your days with unconditional love and companionship

Sadly, senior pets are often overlooked in shelters simply because of their age. But they deserve love, comfort, and a family just as much as the little ones do.

❤️ Don’t let age be the reason someone misses out on their happily ever after.

This November, consider adopting a senior pet. You might just discover that the sweetest chapters of life begin later in years.

Adopt a senior. Save a life. Gain a best friend. 🐾

**Pick a dog, any dog… as long as it’s Zinnia! 💛🐾**

Meet **Zinnia**, one of ARC’s very special long-term residents — and quite possibly 120 pounds of pure love.

Zinnia came to ARC thin and malnourished, and shortly after arriving, surprised everyone by giving birth to four puppies. She was an incredible mom, and all four of her babies have since found their forever homes.

Now, it’s Zinnia’s turn. ❤️

This gentle giant is ready to trade shelter life for a home of her own — preferably one with some room to stretch those very long Great Dane legs, plenty of snuggles, and people who appreciate that sometimes the best things really do come in extra-large packages.

She’s been patient. She’s raised her family. She’s watched her puppies get their happy endings.

Now we’d really love to see hers.

Could Zinnia be your dog?

Learn more about Zinnia and apply to meet her through ARC. 🐶✨. https://animalrefugecenter.com/dogs/zinnia

Meet Sunshine – The Beautiful, Gentle Kitty!

Sunshine came to ARC when her guardian could no longer care for her. Being moved away from her home and adjusting to ARC has not been easy, but she is settling in more each day,

Recently, Sunshine has become comfortable being held and petted by staff.

She is also spending more time out on the screened area, soaking up the fresh air, and enjoying watching everything going on outside with the other kitties.

We are sure she will soon be welcoming attention and petting from everyone.

Why not fill out an application today and schedule a visit to meet Sunshine?

Spend a little time with her and see for yourself what a great kitty she is!

Sunshine is 6 years old.
