EBARR was founded by Cynthia DeRita and Ray Gonzales in 2008. It was born out of our belief that there was a need in the community for a high quality rescue group that accepts cats and dogs (under certain conditions) from the community. Since our inception we have had over 350 adoptions of homeless animals, many community surrenders and cats and dogs that were at risk of being euthanized at the local animal shelters.

EBARR has lofty goals in the future to open an animal sanctuary and full service animal care compound; that will have boarding, vet care, education center, adoption center, training and grooming facilities.
