DID YOU KNOW we have a spay/neuter return program?
Shadow is one of the hundreds of animals that have come to ARF to receive medical attention before being reunited with their families! 🐶 Once she's microchipped, dewormed, vaccinated and recovered from her surgery she will be heading back home!

Meet Chestnut 🐾
This spirited 7‑month‑old pup is looking for her forever home (or a loving foster home in the meantime!).
I had the chance to spend the day with her, and here’s what I learned:
🌟 Travels like a champ—she’s amazing in her crate
🌟 Always ready for an adventure (especially if water is involved, then excitement hits a whole new level!)
🌟 She’s got that fun puppy energy and is an expert at sporadic zoomies
🌟 Working hard on basic commands and eager to learn
🌟 Enjoys a good play session—especially with her new bigger dog friend
🌟 Super friendly, sweet, and full of love
Chestnut is still a puppy, which means she has lots of life, learning, and fun ahead. She’d thrive in an active home that can help her grow, keep her engaged, and continue her training.
If you’re looking for a playful, loving companion, Chestnut might just be your girl ❤ apply online to meet her @arfalberta (arf.ab.ca)️

#adoptable Choose your own adventure!
Four puppies. Four personalities. One very dangerous amount of cuteness!
All four came in enthusiastic for food, you know how I feel about food motivated dogs! They’re simply the best.
Meet the girls:
✨Eve The tiniest sibling with the biggest “main character” energy. Calm, sweet, silly, and fully convinced every toy belongs to her.
⚡Ari Smart, playful, energetic, and always plotting her next adventure. Chaos level? Moderate to enthusiastic.
👀Bella Super smart, super playful, and wins every staring contest. A little shy at first, but once she warms up? Velcro dog activated.
🎾Stella Bold, cuddly, and permanently ready for a game. Equal parts sweetheart and tiny WWE wrestler.
All 4 girls are around 3 months old, crate trained, and doing great with other dogs so far! Like any quality puppy package, they’re still working on house training, manners, and understanding the difference between humans items and their toys.
Basically: tiny DIY best friends ready for their forever homes.
Find them with @arfalberta

Ruby brought so much joy, personality, and love to everyone here at ARF, and while we are going to miss her so much, we couldn’t be happier knowing she found her forever family.
Happy tails sweet girl, you were so loved here, and now you’ll be loved forever 🐾
