ROAR operates and maintains a beautiful shelter at 45 South Street, Ridgefield CT. Since the shelter opened 11 yrs ago they have found homes for over 4000 homeless dogs and cats. They have a kennel that can hold up to 12 dogs and 11 cats with a kitten room that can hold 4 -6 litters of kittens. ROAR works with local veterinarians who give discounted rates including low cost spay and neuter clinics. Mary-Jo Duffy, a dog trainer, donates her time at the shelter to help the dogs make a successful transition into their new homes. Blue Buffalo generously donates the food, not only for the in house animals but enough food to be distributed to the local pet food bank via ROAR volunteers.
There are adoption fees ranging from $200-$400.

All adopted dogs are micro chipped and registered by the volunteers at the time of adoption. The AKC has waived the registration fee for the microchips we purchased.
Roar has a Therapy Dog Program where trained handlers and dogs work their magic at hospices, eldercare/ extended care facilities, and at elementary schools acting as "assistants" to young readers.

ROAR has a Pets For Vets program and has placed 3 dogs this year, helping the emotional wounds of military veterans. You can visit the web site at www.roar-ridgefield.org
