Who we are:
ARC is a group of concerned citizens working to improve the welfare of domestic
animals in the Carroll area.
Want to help?
We would love as much or as little
help as you wish to provide, from joining the group and helping with a strategy, to stuffing envelopes or donating items for
a bake sale. Please contact us at animalrescueofcarroll@yahoo.com.

animals in. When wanting to meet animals, please call or email to line up a time w/ a volunteer.

Why "Free to Good Home" is NOT a good deal for your pet:
Over the years, many Class B dealers have been caught receiving stolen animals or fraudulently
obtaining animals, including pets, and falsifying records to make the transactions stick. Working alongside the Class
B dealer in such transactions is the "buncher," typically a shadowy, unlicensed individual who gathers animals from various
sources, like "free to a good home" advertisements, or by engaging in outright theft. The falsification of
names, addresses, and sources isn't hard to accomplish if you're serious enough about obscuring the means of acquisition and
disposition of animals.
