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/  

Bandit is a 16-week-old black lab and border collie mix who weighs in at 19 pounds. . He is still a little underweight, but we are working on that.  After being treated for Alopecia, Bandit’s coat is growing in perfectly. He is such a cute, sweet boy.  Bandit is cheerful and affectionate, playful and well-behaved.  Bandit is working on house training and keeps his crate dry at night without needing to go out.  This little Bandit will steal your heart, because he is a genuine lap dog. When he is full grown you won’t need a blanket while binge watching, he will keep you warm. He enjoys walks, snacks, and fetching tennis balls. He has played with all the kids in the neighborhood and likes to greet the dog through the fence next door. He loves his foster-mate, see Dina under adoptable dogs, and would do well in a home with another dog. While Bandit is quiet, he is not timid. If he hears a loud noise (think coffee grinder), he comes to investigate. Despite his rough start, this little boy is going to be a wonderful addition to his new family. 

This pup is micro-chipped and up to date on all vaccinations.  The new family will be required to have the pup altered by 6 months of age and complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.  The pup's adoption fee is $300.  Please note ARF does not approve applications for any animal that has not been altered to families that live outside of Illinois and/or beyond 100 miles of Wheaton or Glen Ellyn, IL.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting this pup 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.  ARF is an all volunteer organization.  Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions until your application has been approved.  Thank you for your patience! 

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.
