Foot Warmer Anyone?

Everyone needs a foot warmer to help them through the latest winter storm to hit Oklahoma. Tootsie is the perfect lady for the job. She was a loyal companion to a senior citizen and still has lots of love to give. Is this sweet little Schnoodle meant for you? Not your style? ARF has a huge selection of friendly foot warmers in a wide range of colors, styles and temperaments. You can take a look at our adoptable pets on-line without even braving the slick Tulsa roads.

How are you keeping yourselves and your pets warm, cozy and protected during these chilly months?

Happy New Year Koehler!

This dog's chance at ringing in the New Year were slim. He had been brought into the Sand Spring's shelter after being hit by a car. Koehler had a broken pelvis and required a very expensive and specialized procedure to survive. Dr. Huckaby from Bent Arrow Vet. and Tulsa Plastic Surgeon Dr. Koehler from Tulsa Surgical Arts joined forces. They donated their services and plated his hip. Darren Swiggett from Stryker-Leibinger donated the plates and screws! Amazing things happen when phenomenal people work together! Thank you all so much for saving Koehler. Sending you fuzzy lovin' and puppy kisses!

Koehler is getting a second chance at life. He is already putting some weight on his hip. Will you help keep him off the streets and headed in a pawsitive direction?
You can visit puppy Koehler and Dr. Huckaby at Bent Arrow Vet. Call 459-9100 for an appointment. He will be available for adoption after a few weeks of recovery time.

You visit the Dr. Koehler at Tulsa Surgical Arts or sniff him out on Facebook!

Tulsa Black Friday

You could spend this coming Black Friday saving instead of shopping. Avoid the long lines and curl up with a loving new foster pet. Foster pets make great lap warmers during the cold Oklahoma winters.

Free snuggles and no lines!! If that isn't the perfect doorbuster we don't know what is. If you are interested in fostering or adopting a pet this holiday season please visit www.arftulsa.org

Small, Dark and Handsome

I'm a loyal male seeking a lifetime commitment. I'm fearless, loyal and full of energy. If you are in the Tulsa area looking for love then I'm the guy for you. If interested please visit http://www.arftulsa.org/. You better hurry! A hunk like me won't be homeless for long!

You must come see me. My ears are even bigger in person.

Love, Scrappy

Tulsa's Going to the Dogs

Tulsa animal lovers are raiding their attics and buried treasure to donate to ARF Tulsa. The items will be auctioned of at Southside Auctions to raise money for animal rescue. Have something worth drooling over that you would like to donate?

We are never too proud to beg. So meet Bugsy. Begging happens to be his speciality..

and meet these three little wild things. I think their the cutest babies in Tulsa paws down...

Please take a peak in your garage, attic or basement. It could help save Tulsa's furry friends. Some items that could go into the auction would be antique or collectible dolls, hand-sewn quilts, collectible pottery (McCoy, Rosewood, Weller, etc.), collectible porcelain or glass (Limoges, Nippon, Royal Worchester, Spode, Occupied Japan, etc.), doll houses or doll house furniture, jewelry, collectible kitchenware (Depression era or before), tools, fishing gear, sports memorabilia, old toys and games (1970s and before), and fine art.
Wishing you a day full of tummy rubs and puppy kisses!!!

Have you fallen for Bugsy or the furry trio? They are available for adoption. www.arftulsa.org

EXCITING BIRTH ANNNOUNCEMENTS!

We are proud foster parents to a litter of toy poodle puppies!
Their mommy is one of fifteen toy poodles rescued. We also got our paws on several Brussel Griffons.

A sweet little Chihuahua just gave birth too. Their Daddy is a mystery and Mommy won't kiss and tell. We suspect Pug or Boston Terrier.

Having the time and resources to take in dogs from breeders closing their doors means very much to us. ARF Tulsa spays or neuters every pet that we adopt out. This means that we do so much more than save one pet at a time. We help decrease pet overpopulation for generations to come with every rescue. We also see that they receive proper medical attention, a tattoo, vaccines and a loving home. Bringing in so many dogs and moving so quickly can take a toll on our volunteers and funds. Being forced to turn away a pet would take an even greater toll on our hearts. Thank you for supporting a lifetime of rescue and love.

Spanky is Famous

Spanky is showing off his superior restraint! He's famous. Just proof of the amazing things that are possible with an amazing foster mom and a sweet rescue pup. Check it out....

Furry Fourth of July

All the festivities can have Rover's hair on end. Here is a Fourth of July checklist for your furry friend:

1. Make sure identification tags are secure and all information is current.

2. Be certain that your pet is safe and secure. A frightened pet becomes an instant Houdini. Shelters become flooded with runaway pets over the weekend.

3. If your pet is exceptionally anxious consider contacting your veterinary for a mild sedative to calm your animal down during the big boom.

The safest place for your pet is in your home home with access to a place of comfort. Most pets prefer to hide under beds, tables and couches when frightened. It is tempting to bring your pet with you to celebrate but it can be overwhelming for animals. The noise, activity and strange new smells is too much for most pets.

Enjoy your weekend!!!
