Animal Rescue Foundation of Louisiana, Inc.

ARF-LA is 501-c non-profit organization whose mission is to provide veterinary care, shelter, and adoption services for stray, abandoned, and surrendered companion animals then placed for in Lafayette Parish and the surrounding area. All animals in our care are altered (spay/neutered) and current on vaccinations. Dogs are screened for heartworm and other diseases and put on heartworm prevention. We DO NOT euthanize adoptable animals. Over the last few years we have placed more than 2,000 dogs and cats into loving homes. ARF-LA exists on donations from generous people who believe in our mission and give to us financially and otherwise so that we may continue.

Meet Jackson

Hello, my name’s Jackson!  My #1 wish is to find a forever family!  I was saying to myself just this morning, "Jackson, I said, you know what you need?  You need a person/family all your own.”   I'm an easy going, laid back boy on a mission to find someone who loves sloppy kisses, adoring eyes, hugs, a wagging tail and unlimited devotion.  I am an eye-catching 5-year-old Boxer – Terrier mix and a gentle 70 lbs teddy bear.  My friends say I am obedient, playful, affectionate, eager to please and, most importantly, very intelligent.  I am crate trained and housebroken, and love to play outside.  You will love me, I guarantee it!  And if not, don’t you have friends or family who need some BIG DOG LOVE?  I would love a home with a secured fenced in yard for us to run and play safely in or a committed owner to take me on walks.  Let me tell you a little secret, I need adequate exercise to help me with my waist line (chuckle) and to be on my best behavior.  My hobbies are playing with you - like playing fetch, and snuggling on your lap or right next to you.  I promise to always keep you warm.  I also like riding in the car looking for Jackson fans!!  I prefer to be your one and only fur baby or with laid back, respectful medium to large sized dogs.  Will you be my servant – oops I meant best friend, little chuckle. Please complete the online Adoption Application today if you have room in your heart and family for a loyal companion. https://www.arfla.org/info/adoption Updated 07/28/2023
