Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  

Say hello to Harold, the happy and playful terrier! He is handsome and friendly, approximately 3-5 years old, weighs about 17 pounds, and is full of pure sweetness and fun! This smart boy loves cuddly squeaky toys and can always be found with one or two, even while sleeping…and although he is brand new to ARF, he already fetches and does little tricks! He also has the cutest underbite and tilts his head inquisitively when you speak to him.

Harold is a well-behaved fella who loves other dogs and all people—and he probably would like cats, although he hasn’t met any yet while with ARF.  Harold is also crate-trained, however, he is left loose in his foster family’s home along with their other dogs during the day as well as at night. He also likes to sleep on a cuddly blanket or on a small dog bed nearby the family at night. Harold is almost fully housebroken and has only had one accident in the house.

Harold also enjoys playing in the yard, going for walks and he is good in the car. But, he especially loves a good belly rub and just hanging out with the family. He will make a great football-watching buddy or little pal to keep the cook company while making dinner.

If you are looking for a sweet, affectionate and playful—yet calm--young dog, then Harold is the boy for you! Just give him a chance and he will warm his way into your heart before the second quarter of the game and before dinner is on the table!

Harold is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and neutered.  His new family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.  Harold's adoption fee is $300. A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting Harold fill out an online application today! http://arf-il.org/application.html Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will contact you to arrange a meeting.

Thank you for considering a rescue pet from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation! We are  based in Wheaton, IL and conduct adoption events in the DuPage County area. If you are interested in adopting one of our pets, please submit an adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ 

Adoption appointments are scheduled based on the order of applications received, so submit your application early! Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions or schedule meetings until your application has been approved. More information about our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/

As an all-volunteer, foster home-based organization, A.R.F. Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. Please visit https://www.arf-il.org/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events. 

Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop!
