AHABR rescues animals who are homeless and unwanted, rehabilitates them, trains them, and finds for them the best “forever home. Promotes animal welfare.

To rescue homeless or mistreated companion animals in the Virginia Alleghany Highlands and find them forever, loving homes wherever we can.

To educate the public in the humane treatment of companion animals (i.e., dogs and cats), including spaying/neutering and other animal health and welfare issues.

We are an all-volunteer, non-profit, tax-exempt organization. We are a No Kill rescue and we keep our rescues in Foster Homes. We primarily get dogs and cats from the community and we also pull animals from the Alleghany Humane Society, in an effort to save dogs that need extra medical services. Once the body is healed, we begin rehabilitation, socialization, and obedience training. We are dedicated to the spaying and neutering of dogs and cats and work to educate the community about humane treatment of companion animals.
