Petey is located in a foster home. To meet Petey please text Rachael at +14407730270.
Meet Petey, the lovable bundle of strength and charm! This adorable boy is a fan of outdoor adventures, whether it's strolling around the neighborhood with his favorite harness or enjoying car rides with the wind in his fur. Petey's playful spirit shines through when he's gazing out windows, engaging in tug of war, fetching his beloved Kong Ball, or joyfully splashing around during bath time. He's a smart cookie too, already mastering commands like sit and eagerly learning more. While he's working on his manners around food, his affectionate nature shines as he snuggles on laps during telework or politely asks for playtime during TV sessions. Petey's also a pro at bathroom breaks, using pads by the door, and he's a peaceful sleeper through the night in his cozy kitchen area. Although he hasn't met kids or other furry friends yet, his sweet demeanor suggests he'll make a great companion. Just beware the vacuum-Petey prefers to keep his distance from that noisy contraption! If you're ready for a loyal and playful companion who's eager to learn and shower you with love, Petey is waiting to bring joy into your home!

More about this rescue
Berea Animal Rescue Fund “ARF” began in 1987 as a small group of animal lovers started a ‘grassroots’ movement, recognizing the desperate housing and healthcare needs of homeless animals. Their efforts began in the southwest suburban Cleveland area, transforming a family’s garage into an animal "shelter."
The ARF movement grew when the city of Berea provided us a small building, utility costs included. In return, ARF would always have a cage open for the city’s stray animals. Now, after 20 years of service and thousands of success stories later ARF continues to save lives and make friends. ARF is operated in large part by a group of very dedicated volunteers who give their time and endless love to the shelter's furry residents.
Our next big goal is to position ourselves into a roomier facility…a more spacious home to the area's unwanted and abandoned animals. We believe no pet should be euthanized or left behind because lack of such a place. Our facility is overcrowded and outdated by today’s animal welfare standards. ONLY, through the generous support of the community and the dedication of our volunteers, can we make this dream a reality.
2007 was record breaking for ARF with both animals served and operating costs. Much help is needed!
The Berea Animal Rescue Fund “ARF” operates as a No Time Limit Shelter.
We are a 501(c) 3 Non Profit.
ARF's mission statement.... For the betterment of the lives of stray and abandoned animals, Berea’s Animal Rescue Fund, Inc. promises to:
Give loving care and companionship for as long as needed;
Provide shelter, food and medical necessities;
Seek quality homes through adoption programs;
Create public interest and awareness of animal rights and issues; and
Promote action and advocacy for all of the above.
