    From the moment I walked in, the team was welcoming and genuinely focused on helping me find the right fit. Erica was especially great and she took the time to understand what I was looking for and made sure Bosco and I were a great match.She also helped me get all the supplies I needed so I could start off on the right foot as a new dog owner. The whole process felt supportive, thoughtful and stress-free.Iโ€™m grateful for their help and highly recommend them to anyone looking to adopt! Read More

    This is a wonderful & well organized rescue. The staff is professional and caring. They all truly love the animals so much. Caring for a pet is a serious commitment and they try their best to find the most loving and most appropriate home for that dog or cat. I have supported this rescue for many years. After my own pet crossed the rainbow bridge it took me some time before I was ready. When i was I knew i wanted to rescue a dog from APR. I rescued a wonderful dog and he has made a wonderful addition to my family. Please do not hesitate to rescue from APR. Read More

    Recently I drove a couple of hours to adopt the most beautiful and loving cat, Mia, aka Wonder Woman, from APR. This is my second adoption from APR and I could not have been happier with either. Luna was amazing in ensuring we were a good fit and things could not have worked out better. I have no hesitation in recommending APR with Luna and the team to anyone. Thank you Guys! Read More

    The BEST place to adopt a pet! They walk you through every step and give you a great take-home care package for your new family member. Luna was fantastic throughout the adoption of our cat Cheeto, and she has stayed in touch and answered many of my questions as a first-time cat mom. I have since adopted from other shelters, and the experience I had here was leaps and bounds better than the experience I had at the different places. Read More

    Such an amazing experience. Erica truly took the time to understand my lifestyle and matched me perfectly with Ruger; she knew Ruger was the one โ€” and she was absolutely right! He is my laugh machine, my shelf duster with the wagging tail, my goofball, and my "Little Man".Huge thanks to Erica, the staff, and Rugerโ€™s foster family. I found my FURever dog and couldnโ€™t be happier. Read More

    The staff and adoption process at APR is amazing. You can tell right away they love and take very good care of all the animals. From setting up the first meeting with our 2 kitties Lexi & Lily, to the adoption process has been flawless. Luna, who attended us was very nice and a wealth of knowledge. This is our first time ever having a pet and her advice and ongoing support is priceless and very much appreciated. 10/10 recommend APR! Best decision ever! Read More
