Ferguson Subaru Makes Donation to the Broken Arrow Animal Shelter

Broken Arrow, OK., December 5, 2018 –


In an effort to support animal welfare and work to make a positive impact, Ferguson Subaru supported the Broken Arrow Animal Shelter by providing pet supplies that will keep shelter animals happy, healthy and ready for a safe and loving home. The donation was made as part of a larger Subaru of America, Inc. (SOA) initiative called “Subaru Loves Pets.” 

Throughout the month of October, Ferguson Subaru asked our team-members, our Subaru customers, and the Greater Tulsa-Metro public to help collect much needed pet supplies. Items asked for included pet food, collars, leashes, towels, blankets, grooming supplies, and water bowls. Ferguson Subaru also provided “Shelter Supply Kits,” which included items such as toys, reusable water and food bowls, wipes, etc. 

Since 2015, Subaru retailers across the country, including Ferguson Subaru, have partnered with local animal welfare organizations through the Subaru Loves Pets initiative to impact over 109,000 animals in need. 

At Ferguson Subaru, we are committed to keeping all animals—including those in shelters—safe and healthy. The Subaru Loves Pets initiative reflects our goals to improve animal welfare and the lives of those in our community.

2015 BARK WALK

in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma
sponsored by Ferguson Subaru

Ferguson Subaru was proud to sponsor the Boxer Rescue of Oklahoma's 6th annual "Bark Walk." For 2015, the Boxer Rescue of Oklahoma held the Bark Walk at Chisholm in Broken Arrow.

The Boxer Rescue of Oklahoma is a 501(c)3 non-profit, volunteer ran organization committed to rescuing unwanted and abandoned purebred Boxers in the state of Oklahoma and surrounding areas and place them in a safe, responsible, loving, and permanent home.

Bark Walk is a fund-raising event that features a 1 mile walk through one of Green Country's local parks. All breeds are welcome - not just boxers. There's pet adoptions, $20 microchipping, pet contests, raffles, training tips and more!

Ferguson Subaru is committed to helping animal rescue and pet adoptions, making the Bark Walk a perfect event for us to be a part of.

Ferguson Subaru was at Chisholm Trail for the 2015 Bark Walk. We had our booth set up with our usual bowls of free dog treats. We also brought a new 2015 Subaru Forester. The 2015 Subaru Forester is an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ with Subaru's innovated advanced safety feature - Subaru EyeSight (optional).

Subaru's are dog tested and dog approved!

5th Annual Bark Walk

According to The Humane Society of the United States, "An estimated 2.7 million healthy shelter pets are not adopted each year, and only about 30 percent of pets in homes come from shelters or rescues." [1]

We love our pets here at Ferguson Subaru. Both our Subaru showroom and Subaru service department are pet-friendly facilities. Being the animal lovers we are, it hurts to hear statistics such as the one above. We believe in fighting for those without a voice. Animal rescue and animal cruelty awareness are two major pillars in our company's identity. Lucky for us, our dealership has a brand that is equally committed to animal rescue. Subaru of America has been a long time partner of the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals). The ASPCA is the leading animal welfare organization in the North America. That's why we are proud to work with local organizations like the Boxer Rescue of Oklahoma.

The Boxer Rescue of Oklahoma is a 501(c)3 non-profit, volunteer ran organization committed to rescuing unwanted and abandoned purebred Boxers in the state of Oklahoma (and surrounding areas) and placing them in a safe, responsible, loving, and permanent home. For the past five years The Boxer Rescue of Oklahoma has held their annual Bark Walk. Ferguson Subaru has be a proud sponsor of the Bark Walk for 4 years.

The 5th Annual Bark Walk was held this past weekend! This fun-filled family fundraiser features a 1 mile walk through the beautiful Washington Irving Park in Bixby. Funds raised during the Bark Walk help save the lives of homeless animals and help promote animal welfare in your community. Every year, dozens of homeless animals are adopted during the Bark Walk as well. Shelters from across Green Country bring loving animals available for adoption.

We had a blast at this year's 2014 Bark Walk. Check out photos from the event:

Today is National Animal Advocacy Day. Help support animal rescue in Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Sapulpa, and the surrounding area. We encourage you to adopt your next four-legged companion. Two great animal welfare organizations Ferguson Subaru has worked with include the Boxer Rescue of Oklahoma and the Tulsa SPCA.
