About Hunterdon Somerset Animal Rescue Center
The Hunterdon Somerset ARC (Animal Rescue Center) is a foster based rescue program that aids in reducing the number of domestic animals put to sleep in high kill shelters. Through a series of foster homes set up to pull urgent animals from shelters, these foster homes open up kennel space in over-crowded shelters, therefore saving the lives of those we pull, and making room for other lives to be saved at the shelters. Adopting from our foster homes saves three lives- the one you adopt, the one who takes the adopted dog's place in the foster home, and the new animal who takes the foster animal's place at the shelter.
We are a not-for-profit charity animal rescue organization- we do what we do for one reason: to save their lives! Your adoption makes it all possible <3

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
