ABARC is a dedicated group of long time friends that share their love for animals and animal rescue. We are a new rescue and have filed for our NC non profit status and hope to have our federal paperwork filed in the coming months. We rescue mainly from high kill shelters in NC and surrounding states and sometimes even beyond. Even though we are a new rescue we have 30+ years of combined experience in animal related fields.
