We started this organization because there were an incredible number of wonderful pets being impounded in Rice County without any hope of finding a new home. We are a 501(c)(3) public charity relying solely on donations and fundraisers to get the necessary care for these lovable pets to be adopted. All fundraising efforts are volunteer. No members, officers, or board members are compensated for the generous hours spent helping animals in need. More volunteers are always welcome! The pets rescued are at Ark Veterinary Clinic, 329 E. Garfield Avenue, Sterling, Kansas. Please contact Ark Veterinary Clinic at 620-257-3623 before going to meet a pet to be sure it hasn’t already been adopted.
We require an Adoption Contract be signed after receiving a positive veterinary and/or personal reference. Adoption fees help defray some of the veterinary costs of age-appropriate vaccinations, spay/neuter, canine heartworm test, feline leukemia test, deworming, and microchip.
