 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.

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 an all-volunteer animal rescue 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.

Adoption Event 3-14-26 


Looking To Adopt a Dog or Cat?

The first step is to submit an adoption application online.  If you are interested in our foster to adopt trial, select the adoption application. We are not able to schedule meet and greets without the prior submission of an application. If you are attending an adoption events to meet our rescues, we highly recommend you also submit the application a couple of days ahead of time to allow enough time to process (especially if looking to adopt the same day of adoption events)

Join our Foster Program!


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.
