Welcome to Atlantic Region Central Border Collie Rescue

Donations Needed!

Please Donate to Braxton Braxton has a rare condition that makes it hard for him to swallow. The vet tells us it's Achalasia. Which basically means that his esophagus is not opening to allow food to pass to his stomach. The cause is unknown. Braxton recently had a stomach peg inserted to try to fix the condition. He finally has been able to eat some food by mouth, though he still has difficulty with water. His foster mom is working with him towards eventually being able to have the stomach peg removed. How you can help Braxton's Veterinary bills have gotten very expensive and more bills are likely on the way as Braxton's condition is healed. Please consider donating even a small amount towards his medical expenses. Remember your donations are tax deductible. If you would like to mail your donation please mail to: ARCBCR 12927 Church Court Richmond, VA 23233

	Please help us find Leo! Leo got away from his foster home soon after arriving. Leo was last sighted on Friday in Douglas Park, Arlington, VA. A feeding station has been set up so hopefully he will stay in the area. We are using the service www.findtoto.com to help locate Leo. Please consider making a donation as it cost around $100 an hour to use the service. To view Leo's blog, click here.

Atlantic Region Central Border Collie Rescue, Inc., (ARCBCR) of Richmond, Virginia is a dream come true for a passionate group of Border Collie lovers who had the good fortune of meeting and befriending each other through past rescue work.

The purpose of ARCBCR is to rescue Border Collies and Border Collie mixes from situations that are neglectful, abusive, and endangering. We take in dogs from shelters, dogs found as strays, and dogs that can no longer be kept by their current families.

ARCBCR provides the following for each and every one of our dogs: a loving and caring foster home, all necessary veterinary care, and any rehabilitation a dog might need enabling it to acclimate into its loving, forever home.  

You can be assured that each and every penny goes back into the next dog we take in.

Our adoption fee is $225.00. If you adopt a dog from ARCBCR, your dog will come to you spayed or neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested and current on heartworm preventative.

The reality is, while you are making arrangements to take home your new family member, one of us is making arrangements to evaluate and rescue the next ARCBCR dog in need.

ARCBCR members know that it’s ALWAYS all about the dogs.

Therefore, we are committed to evaluating every dog and every applicant to ensure that we adopt and place every dog into the hands of the best possible family for that dog.

We’re glad you’re here. Spend some time with us. Have fun learning about each of our dogs, and please feel free to contact us regarding adoption, volunteering, or donations. We look forward to hearing from you!

ARCBCR is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit rescue making your donations tax deductible.
