The Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons isn’t just your regular adoption center…
ARF is about two hours away from New York City in the Eastern Hamptons, and although the Hamptons are known for being luxurious, fancy, and fabulous, everything is not what it seems. Plenty of precious pups still need a loving home. For the past 4 years, ARF has been trying to find a solution to this problem. Over 1,000 animals are placed in loving homes each year: animals that would have spent their (shortened) lives at puppy mills or high-kill shelters. So many animals have been saved since the Animal Rescue Fund put their paws to the cause!

No animal should be left in the cold, without a place to go, and, thanks to ARF, they don’t have to be. Compawssion is a driving force within the no-kill shelter, and animals will be cared for and loved, for as long as it takes to find them the perfect forever home! The loving team of ARF rescues an astonishing number of pooches from puppy mills, and they are so lucky to have found a temporary place to stay with this loving team! These folks aren’t kitten around when they say they’re dedicated to the cause!

“Now in its seventh year, the ARF Designer Show House is a great kick-off to the summer season! We salute the designers who have brought such creativity to their assignment, and look forward to seeing everyone. Please bring your friends; it is a fun way to support the animals” said Lisa McCarthy, ARF Board President.
The lineup of designers who will design the nine rooms for the Show House includes: Rachael Ray Home, Irving & Fine for John Rosselli, Tamara Fraser of Worth Interiors, Cathy Kincaid of Cathy Kincaid Interiors, Inc., Richard Keith Langham, Jeff Lincoln of Jeff Lincoln Interiors, Inc., Kathryn’s Flower Gardens, Ann Pyne of McMillen, Inc., and Iris Zonlight of Blue Ocean Design. Each room will feature Thrift Shop items and pieces donated from the designers’ own collections. Unlike traditional show houses, every item in the ARF designer show house will be for sale!

The evening will also include a selection of ARF cats and dogs that will be available for adoption and looking to find a loving new home.
All proceeds from the Show House will benefit the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons, Inc. (ARF), the leading no-kill animal shelter on eastern Long Island. The ARF Adoption Center is located in Wainscott, NY and open every day from 11 am to 4 pm. Since its founding in 1974, ARF has found loving homes for over 21,000 cats, kittens, dogs and puppies.
