| Many people ask for directions to our facility so that they can view our
available animals. Lap Dog Rescue of New Mexico is NOT a shelter. We have a
network of foster homes where our animals are temporarily 'homed.'
Our animals do not live in kennels. They are treated as family pets so that
they can socialize and become well-mannered. They will only be placed in homes
where they will be accepted as part of the adopting family. If you are looking
for a gift or a guard dog
, you don't want to talk to us.
Our critters come from many sources: animal shelters state-wide; private homes
where the animal's companion has become hospitalized, institutionalized, or has
died; owner releases for every unbelievable excuse; and actual rescues from
dangerous or abusive situations.
Please contact us by email us at lapdogrescue_newmexico@yahoo.com
or by phone (505-934-2202) and we will schedule an appointment for an interview
and a home visit.
Please note
that we have full-time outside jobs and that our volunteers may not be able to
answer phone calls immediately. We will make every attempt to contact you
within a day or two!
Our adoption terms and conditions
are on the web. Our mission statement is here.
