Adopting from GAAR saves the day!  Over four million animals are euthanized per year because of pet overpopulation.  Adopting our cats and dogs prevent more from dying because of many reasons.

• Our animals are spayed and neutered.  This stops unwanted litters from happening.  
• Our animals are ready to go!  They have all their vaccines, heartworm preventative, and   microchip.  
• Save the life of a stray and do something good for your community.
• Most of our animals are housetrained.  The cats are used to the litter box and the dogs are used to going outside.  
• It is so easy to go to the local pet supply store, meet an animal, and fill out an application. 
• Crazy baby or relaxed adult, take your pick.
• It’s a lot less expensive than going to a reputable AKC breeder.  We save purebreds and mixed breeds.  Mixed breeds also have less medical problems than an animal from a non-AKC registered breeder.  
• We are not a puppy mill, nor a pet shop.  We do not breed any animals.
• ALL of our funds go directly to care of the animals.  Our volunteers are not paid.
• We take pride in our foster animals.  They are all well-cared for and we would love to help you choose the right one for your lifestyle.
• Make a stand against animal cruelty and neglect.
• Join the people that refuse to throw innocent pets away.
• The buck stops here: be the final step and give a pet a permanent home. 
• Responsibility comes with reward: take care of a homeless pet, gain a devoted friend for life.
