Mission: The Alliance for Responsible Pet Ownership was conceived in 1998 by a group of Indianapolis citizens concerned about the continuing high rate of euthanasia in our city. ARPO seeks to unite animal-related businesses and organizations in central Indiana for the purpose of promoting responsible pet ownership and decreasing the number of companion animals surrendered to shelters. ARPO is funded solely by donations and is staffed entirely by volunteers.

Target demographics: stray, abandoned, neglected, abused and surrendered cats and dogs

Direct beneficiaries per year: about 375 dogs and cats in 2015

Geographic areas served: Central Indiana

Programs: Temporary shelter with a loving foster family, medical care, promote pet ownership as a lifetime commitment, and cooperate with other animal-related organizations for the purpose of reducing the population of unwanted cats and dogs through adoption, spay/neuter and other educational programs.
