About AHRNE

 
Afghan Hound Rescue of New England, Inc. is a non-profit, tax-exempt group of volunteers dedicated to intervening on behalf of abandoned, abused, neglected or lost Afghan Hounds.  We also offer help to owners who can no longer keep their Afghans and need to place them.  AHRNE receives its funding from individual contributors, fund-raising events and donations from Afghan Hound Breed Clubs.  Our ultimate goal is to match the right dog with the right home, for the enduring happiness of both dog and owner.  All dogs are placed in the Northeast.  AHRNE, Inc. will not ship dogs.

To reach our goal, we:

  • house homeless Afghan Hounds in temporary foster homes or kennels while looking for the right permanent home.
     

  • provide veterinary care, including all shots, heartworm testing and preventative (and treatment if found heartworm positive), and spaying and neutering.
     

  • evaluate temperaments while dogs are in foster care, to make the proper match with a new owner.
     

  • screen potential homes through applications, telephone interviews, reference checks and home visits.
     

  • provide post-adoption support and advice.
     

  • provide breed information and education.
