Derrick's Story

Derrick is a gentle soul with a sweet heart. He can be **a little shy at first**, but once he feels safe and comfortable, his loving personality begins to shine through. He is currently **heartworm positive**, but with proper treatment and care he has every chance to recover and go on to live a happy, healthy life. He just needs a family willing to give him the time and support he deserves. He would do best in a home where he can be the **only dog**, allowing him to feel secure and form a strong bond with his people. With patience, kindness, and a calm environment, he will reward his new family with quiet loyalty and affection. This sweet boy is looking for someone willing to see the gentle companion he truly is and give him the loving forever home he's been waiting for.

Animal Rescue Alliance, Inc's Adoption Policy

We encourage potential adopters who see our animals online to reach out to us with any questions and if possible, come in to visit the animal in person. We ask them to fill out a short written questionnaire to aid with "matchmaking" and complete a short oral interview. If we feel the adopter and animal are the right fit for one another, we then move forward to filling out adoption paperwork and receiving adoption fees. If the animal is not yet altered due to age or other underlying condition, the potential adopter must foster-to-adopt, with adoption completed after time of surgery. We welcome rescues to assist, please inquire about any animals of interest, transport may be found.

Our Mission

ARA's mission is to create a safe place where unwanted animals in Miller and Seminole counties can be brought, and readied for adoption or transport. We support a strong spay/neuter program, and will not euthanize for space.
