Support this rescue by sharing your story

Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF) of Bartlesville began with two individuals who were rescuing abandoned animals in need. They provided care for them until new homes could be found. Others soon joined their efforts and ARF was officially formed in 1999 with a mission to help animals in need. In the beginning a few of our rescued cats and dogs were cared for in a local pet shop and we showed dogs on a street corner on Saturdays. Our next two rented spaces housed only cats/kittens. Since these locations could not accomodate dogs we were required to recruit foster homes. ARF had a dream of building our own rescue/adoption sanctuary for abandoned animals. With tremendous hard work from our board, village of volunteers and supporters our dream has become reality! We were able to purchase 18 acres and build an 8,000 sq ft facility that is now home to an average 60-70 dogs/puppies, cats and kittens as they wait to be adopted. Those rescued who are never adopted can live out a happy life with others of their own kind with food, water, shelter and love. ARF exists by donations from the public and private foundations. We do not receive assistance from the City, State or Federal Government. ARF is staffed by volunteers except for a small cleaning staff. ARF also offers low-cost spay/neuter clinics 4-5 times annually. Dr. Caroyn Hinkle of Rafter Veterinary Services is currently performing surgeries. Call ARF at 918-766-0991 for details or see Events for scheduled upcoming clinics.

If approved, you will be contacted for an appointment to meet our rescues. You will be required to sign an adoption agreement, pay the adoption fee and you can take your new pet home! We do accept multiple applications per pet and strive to make the best selection for the pet and lifestyle of the potential adopter. We make every effort to make sure the rescue is a good fit for the individual or family applying for adoption to make sure our rescue is going to their FOREVER home. As stated in the adoption agreement, if for any reason the adopted animal does not work out after a reasonable adjustment period, the animal should be returned to ARF. For dogs/puppies you will need a dog bed, food/water dishes, food, treats, collar, ID tag and leash. You will also need outside shelter or a dog house if the dog will be kept outside for any extended amounts of time. For cats/kittens you will need a litter box, litter, food/water dishes, food, treats, collar and ID tag. If adopting a cat or kitten, you will also need an appropriate size pet carrier to transport your new family member home. This carrier will also be needed for future vet visits or emergencies.
