The Best Friends Pet Resource Center is more than just a place to adopt a pet. It is a first-of-its-kind, fully reimagined shelter that offers resources and services for both people and pets and breaks the mold of the antiquated facilities that have been the norm for almost 150 years. Designed without cages and kennels, the center is a community destination that connects people with adoptable pets, offers support for families to keep pets in homes and opportunities for animal lovers to help make the state of Arkansas and the entire country no-kill by 2025.
The Best Friends Pet Resource Center is located at 1312 Melissa Drive in Bentonville, and will be open beginning March 11: Monday-Thursday from 10 a.m.- 6 p.m., Friday 10 a.m.- 7 p.m., and Saturday-Sunday 10 a.m.- 4 p.m.
