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/  

Daffy is a 5 to 6 year old miniature black schnauzer weighing 12 pounds. She has had a few litters of puppies and is now hoping to find her perfect forever home where she can learn the joys of being a pet. Daffy’s perfect family would be one that is up for the challenge and has patience to let Daffy slowly experience and get comfortable with love and attention. Daffy lived with several canine housemates and would love it if her new home had a canine friend. She has super soft and silky fur. Daffy does not currently like to be picked up or pet, however, when held in a tight embrace her tension slowly fades. She is cautious and gets startled by quick movements. She likes to be hand fed chicken which has been a good bonding time. She is not housebroken but is crate trained. So, having a set routine will be very important for her housebreaking success. She does appear to use piddle pads. She likes to be around people not separated or penned off. She is learning to walk on a leash and gets a chance to practice each day. This sweetie just needs someone to take a chance on her and give her the opportunity to love in a loving home.

Daffy is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and spayed.  Her new family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.

Daffy's adoption fee is $350.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting Daffy fill out an Online Application today!

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!
