Scheduled Adoption Events

To see all events, visit our EVENT CALENDAR Page.

To make the most out of your time, we suggest you SUBMIT an adoption APPLICATION BEFORE an adoption event.

Check the animal attendance the morning before the event to confirm attendance of a particular rescue. In addition, please check the up-to-date animals attendance list 1 HOUR BEFORE an event to know if the dog or cat you want to meet is still attending.

Also remember to review important event information BEFORE attending.

Donate

Not ready to adopt a dog or cat? Have no time to volunteer or foster?

You can still help: a donation is a great way to help ARWOB! Any amount - large or small - is appreciated.

Find out other ways you can donate to ARWOB by visiting our donation page.

Foster a Rescue

Fostering is
FREE and FUN!

We not only provide you with everything you need to take care of one of our rescues, but the experience is SO fulfilling. By placing one animal into a foster home, you allow us to save another. We are always in need of foster parents.

Our Mission

Animal Rescuers Without Borders, Inc. is all-volunteer non-profit 501(c)(3) organization which consists of a group of dedicated people who donate their time, resources, skills and energy toward the battle against the overpopulation of homeless pets and improving the lives of companion animals through rescue, fostering programs, adoption, pet care, educational programs and, of course, spaying and neutering.

UPDATE - 06/07/2020

At this time, Dog and Cat adoptions are continuing while following social distancing and federal/state safety recommendations. In order to do so, meet and greets are by appointment ONLY.**

Note: Due to the large number of adoption applications that we are receiving at this time, priority will be given to applicants living in the San Diego area. We are also giving priority to adopters versus "foster-to-adopt" trials, as we are receiving multiple applications for our rescue animals during this time.

The first step in the adoption process is to submit an adoption application.

** Until further notice the Cat Adoption Center is temporarily CLOSED **

Please, submit adoption applications online for review. If approved, we will contact you to schedule a meet and greet following Covid-19 social distancing and safety protocols.

Foster: For those of you not looking to adopt, who always travel, or whatever your reason may be, fostering is a wonderful and FREE alternative to adoption. We give you all the supplies you need to take care of one (or more!) of our dogs or cats. We usually ask you foster for a minimum of 2 weeks.
