ARF saves dogs and cats who have run out of time at public shelters and brings people and animals together to enrich each others lives. ARF strives to create a world where every loving dog and cat has a home, where every lonely person has a companion animal, and where children learn to care.
ARF's 37,700-square-foot headquarters in Walnut Creek opened in June 2003 and has become a community center where we are able to rescue, treat and adopt more animals who would otherwise have been put to death. Dogs and cats live in cozy, glass-enclosed "condos," where they are free to frolic with each other and meet potential adopters in the Maddie's Animal Care Center. The Dog Training Pavilion is the home of ARF U and the site for training classes at all levels open to ARF adopters and the public.
