Animal Responsibility for Fayette Missouri (ARFF MO) was created in 2009 by Kathryn Ward and her daughter Janis Bultemeier when their hometown of Fayette MO passed a Pit Bull ban. Being compassionate about the breed and knowing the discrimination that they were about to face in Fayette, ARFF MO was created. ARFF MO is a 501 c3 Non-Profit organization saving one pit bull at a time. ARFF MO is based out of Fayette, MO. Our mission is to promote public safety through education about responsible pet care as an alternative to banning breeds of dogs. Our organization focuses on education, legislation, and rescuing to accomplish our mission. We envision a community with fewer dog bites and attacks, fewer unwanted pets, and a place were citizens are allowed to own whatever breed of dog they wish within the city limits of their hometowns.
The first step is to fill out an application. You will be contacted by an ARFF MO representative if your application is complete and checks out. If you have another dog, we will require a meet and greet take place on neutral turf so it can be determined if the dogs are a "fit" for each other. The last step is a home check. If everything is good, you will adopt one of our dogs. ARFF MO strives to place dogs into homes where they will happily live out the remainder of their lives
