 Afghan Hound Rescue of
California
, located 20 min. South of
San Francisco, is a volunteer organization
dedicated to saving Afghan Hounds from homelessness and
euthanasia.
Afghan Hound Rescue Of California is an indepen-
dent rescue group. We operate under
the approved guidelines of, and in cooperation with
the
Afghan
Hound Club of America
Rescue
.
Afghan
Hounds are as susceptible to impoundment as any
dog. They are picked up off the streets as strays or
relinquished by their owners because of a move, illness
or death, financial crisis, or other troubled
circumstances. Adoption assistance is also available to
those owners who can no longer care for
their Afghan and must give them up for adoption.
Through the compassionate efforts and commitments to
help,
AHCA's volunteer
members have successfully placed many Afghan
Hounds in new loving homes.
Prior to
adoption, all of our rescues are evaluated by a
veterinarian and treated for any medical conditions
which are detrimental to the health of the dog.
Additionally, all rescues are spayed/netured, up to date
on shots, micro-chipped and groomed by Heather Ford who graciously donates her time to help Afghan Hounds in need.

specific characteristics and
