My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Just like the mighty Mount Kilimanjaro, this little boy carries the spirit of adventure in every tiny paw. His black and white coat is as striking as snow-capped peaks against the vast African sky. Kilamanjaro is a bold explorer, ready to conquer every corner of his world, one playful pounce at a time. He's a lover of life's grandest moments, from gentle snuggles in your lap to chasing after his favorite toys. Full of charm and kisses, he's the perfect companion for anyone seeking a small yet powerful pup with a heart full of love and joy.

HISTORY
Mount Kilimanjaro and his three siblings were born in IAR's care to a sweet black Chihuahua who was found in a rural community.

HEALTH
Mount Kilimanjaro is receiving his rounds of puppy vaccinations. He will be microchipped and neutered when age appropriate.

PHYSICAL
Mount Kilimanjaro has a soft white and black coat with a symmetrical black face mask, a black button nose and little tortilla chip ears.

Adoption Requirements

  • You must be prepared to make a lifetime commitment to the animal.

  • You may not be an undergraduate student.

Adoption Process

  • Fill out an adoption interest application HERE.

  • Our goal is finding lifelong, loving homes for our animals, so we try to find the best match between animal and adopter. We can help advise you on which animals to meet based on your situation.

  • You can meet some of our animals at our weekend adoption events, or we can arrange for a meeting in the foster home. If it’s a good match, the foster parent will come to visit your home in person. This is to make sure your home is safe and secure for a new companion animal.

  • Note: IAR makes every effort to please our adopters, but our first concern must be for the animal’s welfare. We reserve the right to deny any application.

More about this rescue

IAR started with one woman's big dreams, a bigger heart, and a very distinctive purple pickup truck that helped her rescue countless of unwanted, abused, and homeless Triangle pets. Originally founded in 1994, IAR earned an official 501(c)(3) status in 1995. We are governed by a Board of Directors, managed by elected officers, and introduced IAR’s first paid position, General Manager, in June 2021. This role will assist with elevating our collective compassion to new heights and strengthening IAR’s impact as a whole.

Our mission is to rescue and provide safe and responsible care for homeless, abandoned, and abused animals. We shall strive to help all animals in need through our service programs. We will serve our communities through promotion of spay/neuter for all companion animals, and the education of children and adults in humane care, respect and responsibility for animals on this earth.
