Atlantic Rottweiler Rescue Foundation (ARRF) is based in Mooresville, NC and was created to help rescue and rehabilitate Rottweilers in need. Due to the need in our area, we now accept dogs of any breed into our program. In addition, we are helping to educate the public on spaying/neutering, and general responsible dog ownership.
We want everyone to know how wonderful life with a Rottweiler is! We are dedicated to rescuing all dogs and finding them a wonderful new family to share their lives with.
Create an alert, and we'll notify you every time a new pet comes in who meets your criteria.

Additional adoption info
Adopting any dog is a long term commitment. We want our applicants to be prepared for that commitment and dedicated to a high level of care for their new companion pet. To ensure this, ARRF has a 5 step adoption process:
Step 1 : Complete an application at http://www.arrfnc.com/info/adoption
Step 2 : ARRF will contact you and confirm we have received your application (please email us at arrf@arrfnc.com if you have not gotten a response within 72 hours)
Step 3 : ARRF will review your application and confirm the information provided. This can take a week or longer depending on how quickly we receive responses.
Step 4 : ARRF will contact you to schedule a home visit. Home visits allow us to get to know you, prepare you for your new pet and answer any questions you may have.
Step 5 : ARRF will complete a review of all findings and contact you with a final decision. Upon approval, ARRF will arrange for your new family member to come home.
We are dedicated to saving as many lives as we can and understand that the faster this process is completed, the faster we can take in another dog. Please be sure to provide us complete, detailed information and all contact information to minimize delays.
