October 1st is National Black Dog Day - a day to raise awareness for “black dog syndrome,” a phenomenon where black dogs are disproportionately overlooked for adoption in shelters and rescues and to encourage people to adopt them. If you are ready to welcome a dog into your life, make a point to meet the black dogs! AFH has two adoption events this weekend. Follow us for more info.

Our Story

AFH was founded in 2002 by a small group of experienced rescuers. Our goal was to change the idea of rescue from just finding and placing dogs in homes to finding A Forever Home for every dog and pup in need.

We started our rescue with a single foster home, a yard sale, and a personal credit card. We spent countless hours transporting and caring for our dogs; running adoption events and our website. We conducted home checks, vet checks and interviewed adopters for each and every dog. Our rescue takes pride in ensuring that each of our pets receives all medical care needed regardless of costs. We also focus on educating adopters about the needs of their dogs, including medical care, socialization and training.

We have now matured to over 2,000 volunteers who do a variety of jobs - conduct home-checks and interviews, drive transports, run adoption events, hold fundraisers, do community outreach, run our social media and website, foster dogs, and manage our finances and paperwork. Yet, our dedication to "Forever" has never changed. We remain a foster home only rescue and have placed over 17,000 needy pets into loving, forever homes! In addition, over the years we have helped countless rural shelters, transported thousands of homeless pets to safety, provided assistance during major disasters such as Hurricanes Katrina and Sandy, helped reform shelters, and assisted in shutting down puppy mills and hoarding situations.

We are grateful for volunteers, adopters, donors, collaborators and supporters - and welcome you to join our organization! If you have a love of animals and a place in your heart for dogs - come enhance the lives of those left behind and help them find their forever homes. It will enrich your life, too!
