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/  

Farley is a 5-7 year old male Chihuahua mix.  Farley came from a hoarding situation and when he arrived was a basket case and didn’t want anything to do with us mean old humans. Well, that lasted about 24 hours!! Now he has discovered that us humans give pets AND treats and it turns out we are not bad after all!!  Farley was quick to warm up to all the activity and the humans in the house and more eager than Finley to come up and engage with people.  He is friendly but unsure with children and is good with other dogs.  He loves playing with his foster siblings and running around like a banshee.  Overal he seems ok with cats despite having some instinct to chase.  After the initial freak out period he is figuring out that we want him to do his potty and his marking OUTSIDE and he is improving every day on this front.  He has also discovered toys can be fun too!  If you are looking for a couch potato or a fun playmate, we think Farley may fit the bill! 

Farley is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and neutered as of 6/30/21.  His new family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.

Farley's adoption fee is $300.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting Farley 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!
