Animal Rescue, Inc.
Funded in 2017, 2019, 2021-2024
Since 1976, Animal Rescue, Inc. (ARI) has been a refuge for homeless dogs and cats. No animal is euthanized due to medical expense or the inconvenience of care. ARI strives to find loving homes for its residents and offers crisis intervention services to pet caregivers in times of hardship to keep pets and families together, low-cost spay/neuter surgeries, and Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) clinics for free-roaming cats.
A grant from Grey Muzzle helps ARI's Senior Dog Rescue Program, which aids the most vulnerable, at-risk populations of dogs – elderly strays, puppy mill victims, and older dogs slated for euthanasia. The Senior Dog Rescue Program protects and rehabilitates these dogs physically and emotionally. ARI provides routine and emergency veterinary care and then finds these dogs safe adoptive homes, places them with nurturing foster families, or cares for them in their Sanctuary for Life. Grant funds will aid senior dogs like Snickers, a little female Chihuahua mix, who was found abandoned at a power plant. An ARI volunteer gained Snicker’s trust and transported her to safety. Thanks to the Grey Muzzle grant, Snickers got the medical care she needed and a second chance at life!
