President's message

Dear Members and Friends,

Welcome to the ARF Website! We are thrilled that you have looked us up and hope you will enjoy your visit and send others to www.arfhamptons.org soon. ARF’s cats, kittens, dogs and puppies are pictured here, waiting for adopters like you. The website is updated frequently, so if you don’t see what you’re looking for, please come back in a few days, or you can call the Adoption Center at 631-537-0400 for the latest updates and more details.

ARF works diligently to run a state-of-the-art Adoption Center in Wainscott, New York. We’re located next door to the East Hampton Airport on the beautiful East End of Long Island.  See local map.

The Adoption Center is located on 22 acres of Pine Barrens forest. There’s plenty of room for our dogs and puppies to go for long walks and enjoy the outdoors, and the cats and kittens love to bask in the sun in their catteries, complete with sun porches. We’re open every day from 11-4.

The many community programs that ARF sponsors are described on the website and include Operation Cat—our feral cat trap/neuter/return program, PUP (People United with Pets), pet food drops at the Shinnecock Indian Reservation, local food pantries and visits by local schools.

ARF is funded completely by private donations from people like you. There are lots of ways you can help ARF, including patronizing the fabulous ARF Thrift & Treasure Shop in Sagaponack and attending one of our fun events such as the annual Stroll to the Sea Dog Walk. Check the website frequently for upcoming events, and give online—it’s easy and secure.

We love hearing from the extended ARF family so please send us an email and let us know if you’d like to get more involved.

Best Wishes,

Polly Bruckmann                         Sara Davison
