AARCS proudly participates in Hills Food Shelter and Love program. Our animals are fed Science Diet and Prescription foods, where our veterinarians have deemed it necessary. Adopters will be provided with an adoption kit, including a sample bag of food and coupon, at the time of adoption. 

 We’re so excited to be a PetSmart Charities grantee! Grant funds will go directly toward helping more pets find their forever homes through our adoption program! Thanks to your donations in PetSmart stores, we’re able to make an even bigger positive impact for pets in our community.
