Our Animal Rescue Work

animal-rescue At the Animal Welfare League of Arlington we not only shelter animals, we rescue pets from many adverse situations. Animal control officers and shelter staff work to help both pets and people.

Animal Control & Animal Rescue

Animal control officers respond to calls in Arlington, Virginia, of dogs running loose and often rescue dogs from busy streets and other dangerous situations.

Animal control officers also rescue cats and other animals from neglect, particularly in cases of animal hoarding.

Animal Care Staff & Animal Rescue

The animal shelter staff rescue animals every day from unwanted homes simply by allowing owners to surrender their unwanted pets without judgement or delay.

The Animal Welfare League of Arlington rescues pets by helping owners who need financial assistance by providing veterinary cost assistance for pet guardians in Arlington, Virginia; low-cost spay and neuter programs for pet guardians in the Virginia and Washington, DC area; and low-cost rabies clinics for pets in the Virginia and Washington, DC area.

The animal shelter staff rescue animals and their owners from difficult situations by offering free pet care advice and a wealth of pet training and pet care resources.

The Animal Welfare League of Arlington is not just an animal shelter, the Animal Welfare League of Arlington is an animal rescue organization serving Arlington, Virginia, and the Washington, DC area.
