RCAR is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, retirement and adoption of at-risk, injured and geriatric animals. The rescue is located on a beautiful 67 acre farm in the foothills of the Appalachian and Blue Ridge Mountains of SW Virginia. We work closely with several surrounding counties in NC & VA on neglect and sever cases with animal control. We also have a great network that has been very successful in helping owners place horses that need a new home. Many animals receive rehabilitiation in our care here at the farm and we are very happy to say we adopt many each year! Some animals find themselves residents at the farm for differing reasons and live out their life in peace. We are reaching out to you to open your heart and help support our rescue so that we can in turn help animals in need.
