Open Arms ResQ & Refurral
Our Featured Pet...
Jeff was found in an abandoned house along with his brother Mutt and a cat. They were all emaciated and he was originally thought to be a very young pup when the shelter in VA found him. In fact he was about 7 months old. Since arriving at our rescue he has been tested for heartworms (negative) put on preventative, given his vaccines for distemper and rabies, and he has been neutered. He has gained quite a few pounds since he has been here with us. He is very sweet and loving. However he is also independent and is not an in your face dog. We are not really sure of his breed. The vet believes he is about as large as he will get and thinks he is from the terrier family with some possible cattle dog mixed in.
News
We are attempting another fundraiser. This time its a car wash! If you have a dirty car that needs washed and want to help homeless animals here is a way to do both. Come visit us at the Shell station in Trooper at the intersection of Ridge Rd and Park Ave......we will be there from 9am until 2 pm. All proceeds go right to our vet, Runaway Farm.
Who We Are
Open Arms ResQ & Refurral is a home based rescue that deals with all types of animals. While we mainly deal with cats and dogs we are open to take in birds and exotics, including reptiles. We also have many referrals that we will gladly pass along if we can not take the animal in ourselves. All of our rescues stay in the house with us and live as part of the family. We have no kennels and none of our animals are segregated within the house. We are always happy to answer any questions on specific breeds, nutrition or just general education.
Adopting a friend
Adopting a new friend is a process that is quick and painless. We require that a home visit be done prior to adoption to meet the new family and to see the new home. Vet references and/or personal references are required. All of our dogs are up to date on shots, wormed, spayed/neutered and microchipped. Adoption fees vary depending on the animal. To begin the adoption process please email us and let us know who you are interested in and please include a little information about yourself/family. We receive different kinds of dogs all the time so if we don't not have one for you now please check back later or we can refer you to another rescue or shelter that may have the one for you.
Volunteers and Foster Homes Needed
Open Arms ResQ & Refurral is a small organization and as much as we would like to expand and help more animals we need volunteers to do so. We need foster homes more than anything but welcome any kind of volunteer work. We rely solely on donations, adoption fees and volunteers to keep us running. If you ever have any animal supplies (i.e. bowls, leashes, blankets, crates) that you can spare please email us. All donations are very much appreciated!
