Border Animal Rescue

Border Animal Rescue (BAR) is committed to improving the welfare of dogs and cats in Cochise County, Arizona. We seek to rescue and rehabilitate abused and abandoned animals and find them loving, responsible homes. We also seek to encourage the members of our community to sterilize their pets so that the animal population is reduced to only those that are wanted and loved. We seek to promote the health and humane treatment of all animals in the county. We cooperate with county and city animal control offices as well as other animal welfare organizations. We are supported solely by contributions and by the labor of volunteers. We channel all our funding efforts to the benefit of the dogs and cats of the community.
