Our Adoptables
How's that again?
  • EVERYONE must complete an adoption application in order to start the process!
  • Our phone number is a New Mexico number, in the Albuquerque area.    (505-934-2202)
  • Be courteous about calling! Don't call us earlier than 9am or later than 6pm.
  • We are not a shelter. We are a group of foster homes all over the Albuquerque metropolitan area. You cannot "come to see" the animals. We bring them to you! It may take a few days to schedule this!
  • We are ALL volunteers.
  • When we say crate-trained, we mean they sleep there overnight! Animals should NEVER be left in crates for long periods of time!

What they would like most is to have a home where they could stay together. They are very bonded!
