Annie Blue Eyes
Date: 07/24/2007
Annie is a beautiful Lynx Point Siamese cross with blue eyes. She is a spayed female, DSH, 4.5 years old. Annie needs a foster home!
Personality
Annie has a sweet and affectionate disposition. She loves to play with a feathered wand or feline flyer, and enjoys being brushed and petted. She's a little on the anxious side and is looking for just the right home -- a calm family who will love her and be patient with her feline eccentricities and work through them with her. For instance, she has a history of wanting to hide in a cozy cupboard in the daytime and come out to play and socialize with her humans at the stroke of nightfall! (We were thinking that the Addams Family would be a perfect match!)
Social Profile
Her best animal-friend in her former home was a nice dog, and she's also very sweet with gentle young children. But we think she will do best in a quiet home with maybe one mature or gentle dog as a friend, but no children and probably no other cats (she likes some cats, usually young males). She tends to be on the nervous side, and needs her quiet space, which is sometimes hard for kids or playful cats to understand.
Medical History
She's on prescription diet because of a history of urinary tract sensitivity. She loves her canned C.D.!

Antares
Antares
Date: 08/31/2008
F-713 Antares - Antares is an adorable 4-month old Maine Coon-mix kitten with a tail almost as big as the rest of him. He was trapped from a feral colony, and was going to be neutered and returned to his colony (that's why he has a missing ear tip), but a couple of NMAF volunteers thought he seemed pretty friendly, and could be tamed even though he was older than usual for taming kittens. They were right. He spent a few weeks in a cage getting used to being handled and petted, and is now the sweetest, most affectionate little guy imaginable. He can still be skittish, especially with strangers, but will probably lose that as he gets older and spends more time with people. Extremely playful and loves to chase feather toys. He likes other cats and gets along well with his buddy Dexter. Don't know how he would react to dogs or kids, but he's generally outgoing and good-natured. Excellent litter box and other habits. The other Maine Coon-mix cats taken from this colony are all large, fluffy and beautiful. I expect this little guy will be too.
Archie
Dachsund
Date: 05/29/2008
Archies is a neutered, male Dachshund who is approximately one and a half years old. Archie is delightful and funny, playful and loving, obedient and handsome! He loves walks, riding in the car, playtime, toys, and chasing a ball. He LOVES, LOVES, LOVES his people and is good company. He will bark when he is put into a crate, but settles down; he is not a barking nuisance. Archie is housetrained and occasionally marks. Without a doubt, this little guy has the sweetest personality and aims to please! He is a very social boy. Another compatible dog is essential or lots of dog parks and doggy “dates" would be needed. He is housetrained and uses doggy door. He will benefit from dog obedience training. Unsure about children.
Baby Sadie
Bloodhound mix
Date: 07/05/2008
Baby Sadie is a spayed, female Hound who is 1 year old. She is 55 pounds. She is friendly with people and with other dogs, energetic and loves to play in the water! Baby Sadie is athletic and agile, playful and fun-loving. She is good at playing keep-away and fetch with rope toys and balls. She is an affectionate girl who loves to haver her tummy and ears rubbed. She can hang gout with you on the could and watch TV too. She loves treats, soft toys and chew flips. Baby Sadie is smart and responsive. She is crate trained, but needs more attention to her housetraining and house manners (e.g., jumpin up on things and people). Sensitive Sadie may pee submissively if she things you are upset with her. A home without cats is probably bst as she seems a little too interested in them. Very patient and careful training would be needed otherwise.
Bailey
** ADOPTION PENDING **
Date: 09/04/2008
Bailey is a 4-year old neutered male English Mastiff-Chow Chow mix. He is an extra large dog at 125 pounds and a pure "teddy bear" who is extremely affectionate and will drown you in kisses!! Bailey's breed mixes lend him to being naturally protective and loyal to his family--he displays an initial appropriate defensive stance around strangers, but with acquaintances he is very friendly and affectionate.
Bailey's foster has observed that he can enjoy playing with non-dominant, but not timid, medium-size dogs. However he has demonstrated spotty, but significant aggression when around large dogs (male and female). Cats, small, and timid dogs are not recommended as companions. If you are not experienced in dog-to-dog behavior management, it would be best that he is the only dog.
Bailey is a couch potato and prefers to be in the house (and we prefer he go to a family that will ensure that he is). He is well-behaved in the house, doesn't touch a thing, and can use a doggy door. He loves to sleep on a bed but will use the floor if told.
Bailey has a calm and jovial temperment and daily long, leisurely walks are recommended to keep this couch potato from putting on weight. It is EASY EASY to fall in love with this big guy! Bailey needs a family or person without small children (his size is daunting) and an experienced large-breed dog owner.

Bandit
Pomeranian mix
Date: 02/02/2008
I'm adopted!!
Little Bandit is a friendly 9-year old Pomeranian mix who is always kind, but occasionally shy. Speaking of shy - don't shy away because of his age. Poms can live up to 16 years! Bandit would thrive in a calm home. His unfortunate past included being injured by large dogs resulting in a fused vertebrae in his spine. He is amiable with children but gets a tad nervous with all their excitement and energy. Bandit is looking for a gentle soul who wants a perfect lap dog to cuddle and love. Bandit is good with cats and other small dogs. He is so deserving of a second chance in a loving, nurturing home.

Bayleigh
Aussie-Lab mix
Date: 07/30/2008
Bayleigh is a one year+, spayed female Border Collie and Labrador mix "teenager" with a loving Labby personality. Somewhat of a free spirit, she does need someone who will be lovingly firm with her. She's smart and knows how to train her owner although she herself is very trainable. She loves being a house dog and is well behaved in the house. She's over eager with cats, so recommended for a no-cat home, although she might be able, over time, to adjust. She knows sit, down, come (when it's worth it to her), shakes paws, and can ring bells on the door to ask to go out. She loves to play against your legs curling around and through while being petted. She enjoys her ropes, sticks, balls, tug of war, and would love to have someone teach her the game of fetch. A dog who never stops smiling, she is good with kids. She can be a little in-your-face when playing with other dogs and needs a dog to be firm with her about laying down the rules. Probably needs a same size or bigger doggie companion..may be too much for a smaller dog. Bayleigh is a perfect dog for the Labrador lover in you. She is not a full breed, her tail curls and some white sneaked on to her chest and toes, but her coat is shiny and silky like a lab should be. This girl is outgoing with a very willing disposition!

There is no mistaking when she needs attention, but otherwise is quiet and retiring. Belle loves to be with you wherever you go and rides happily in the car. Her greetings are with intense appreciation and friendly overtures for affection. Any available lap is hers for as long as possible if the person is willing. Housetraining not reliable; direction and practice needed. Seniors, stay-at-home resident, older children would be the best famiy match. A nice, playful dog pal would be nice, too. She likes lots of attention.

Brady and his brother, Bob, are littermates from a puppy mill and either will worm their way in to your heart. Both Bob and Brady are real keepers. They can go together or separate and have been fostered separately to let them develop their own personalities. Brady will bark if left in a yard during the day, so he needs to have a home where his family can give him a doggie door or be home with him. Both of these dogs are very special boys and deserve nothing less than the best forever homes where they will never suffer from a lack of love again.

Chai is a sweet and sensitive little guy who is so lovey and cuddly! He is a 2-year old neutered male Peek-a-Poo. He seems to like older men in particular and attaches himself to one person. Chai is mostly a calm and quiet guy, who will cry and whine a little if you leave the house; but he does not act out – will not chew and leaves everything untouched. He is well potty-trained and has not had any accidents with his fosters. Chai chooses when he will listen to you, but he is getting a little better at trying to pay attention (or at least faking it really good!)
Best adopters would be an ADULTS ONLY household that is frequently at home, or stay-at-home. He loves his daily, short walks; but don't even think about the dog park for him! Chai gets along with other lap dogs, and cats. Chai is wary of strangers and gets especially upset with kids and teenagers.

He loves outings, hiking, swimming, etc. Charlie’s most relaxed and happiest when he’s with someone who is able to be firm and consistent leader for him.

Crystal
Schnauzer
Date: 06/27/2008
Crystal is one of our recent adoptions, and was one of the puppy mill dogs, She had a dull coat, no zip in her walk, and she was unsocialized, sad, and in need of some enormous love and attention -- which she never knew in her life. Not only was she unable to breathe fresh air and run outside with green grass under her feet, poor Crystal had no socialization, no human or dog companions, and no love in her life. She had been used as a breeding female, and spent her days and nights cooped up in a wire crate, not even able to stand, sit or lie down on anything but the hard wire base of the crate.
Just look at Crystal now!

Daisy

She bonds very easily. Daisy is a great dog with a loving personality and a yearning for a companion with time to teach her to play with a ball. She will reward you with many kisses and cuddles as well as loyalty! Daisy has been a stray for an unknown amount of time and has many small bite wounds to show for it--she needs a loving family with ample time to play and love on her, take her to obedience classes, and finally give her a 'real' home. She is house and crate-trained, and uses a doggy door. Daisy is good around kids who are respectful and gentle with dogs. She would really enjoy having a doggy friend to play with when adopted into her forever family!

F-702 Dexter - Mr. Personality in a tuxedo! Dexter is a sleek, muscular young dude around 1 year old. He'll be a big, solid boy when he finishes filling out. He was a stray rescued off the street by NMAF volunteers, and turned out to be very friendly and affectionate. He may not do well with some other adult cats - he really wants to be the boss. He seems to get along great with kittens, though. He is not afraid of dogs or anything else, he likes kids, and his personality could be summed up as "cool as a cucumber", or perhaps "Bond, James Bond". Dexter is harness-trained and would enjoy taking you for a walk. Energetic and playful, loves to be petted, curls up in bed with you, and chirps and chats a lot.

Gabby
She's a diva!
Date: 10/13/2007
I'M ADOPTED!! Only one-year old and already a diva! Gabby is a beautiful Sight Hound-Pit Bull mix who has to-die-for green eyes! She hasn't met a human she doesn't like. Got tennis ball and doggy toys to play with? She's your gal. But, she is also good at relaxing too....she makes an excellent sunbathing companion in the summer! Gabby spoons warmly when sleeping with her foster mom in bed--what a honey! She is very obedient and understands sit, stay, and come. She is house and crate-trained. She is smart and will benefit from additional training - the Canine Good Citizen Award is on her list of things to accomplish! Her energy level is high--long walks, runs and playtime daily. She is an athletic, active girl who is looking for the same in a human. A commited and experienced large-breed dog owner who will love her forever is needed. Gabby is looking for the much-needed attention and security she deserves in her life. She promises to be affectionate and loyal to you forever if you promise to make her your only spoiled, love-dog in the family.
Gidget
Choodle
Date: 07/23/2008
Gidget is a 13-week old male Choodle. He is very playful with other dogs but a little shy at first with people he doesn't know - until he warms up to them. He is quiet and does not bark much at all. He knows how to use the doggie door but still has some accidents in the house (he needs work in this area). He loves company and playtime. He is very small so would need to be with adults preferably.
Ginger
Chihuahua
Date: 03/27/2008
Ginger is a female Chihuahua approximately 1-2 years old. She is puppy-playful! Ginger loves to play with other dogs and loves chewing on everything. If you do not have a lot of toys around she will find something to chew on! She loves to play tug-o-war and Nylabones. Her favorite past time though is playing with her humans. She is content to nap on the couch while her human is on the computer or watching TV. She is OK in the crate, but vocal when you leave the house, but very excited upon your return. She is a sly little girl - stealing other dogs food or bones if they aren't paying attention! She is still working on her house-training; a bit stubborn, but her fosters are sure she'll get it eventually.
Gizmo
Brussels Griffon - Schnauzer
Date: 03/27/2008
Gizmo is a male Brussels Griffon/Schnauzer mix who is approximately 1 year old and just happens to be the CUTEST DOG EVER according to his fosters. He has a great personality and is a very smart boy. He loves other dogs and lots of toys. His house-training is going very well. Gizmo was a breeding dog at a puppy mill and due to that awful past, is scared of loud or unfamiliar noises. If you move too fast, he'll run away scared and hide in his crate (which is his sanctuary and he must have one). He is needy and forms strong bonds with loving humans. Gizmo's adopters must be willing to work at HIS pace for confidence building and gaining trust. A calm, quiet home environment will be needed for him and people that are patient, very loving, and frequently at-home or stay-at-home.
Graykitty
Date: 10/08/2005
Graykitty is a large, super-sweet cat. He is 10 years old. He is very good with other cats. In fact, he and Starshine seem to consider themselves brothers, eating together and often walking in tandem. He loves people and is fine with even multiple dogs. He even likes the 3-year-old child in his foster home, especially when she moves a feather toy for him. He is on medication for asthma and does well on it. He will need to continue it for life, but he seems to know it helps and actually comes running for it! He will spit out a pill that is not given properly, but never bites or scratches. The only thing that really unnerves him is a vacuum cleaner, which he hides from!

Best to have a chew toy or pull toy of her own to have around otherwise she'll go for your shoes! She is great on a leash and behaves very well for car rides. A family with older children would probably be the best bet, because she would probably knock down a little child because she always wants to paly. She likes to interact with other dogs.

Isabella is a 1-year old Chihuahua mix who is beautiful – both in looks and in her generous, loving heart. She is delightful when snuggling and will reward your gentle hand with licks and hugs.

She is not shy and will greet all newcomers, both canine and human with a gracious sniff. If you are looking for a gentle, loving, attentive lap dog and walking companion, Isabella will fill the bill. Best family match is a couple or family with time for attention and play; children should be older than 8 years and respectful of animals. A "sister or brother" doggy of same size and playfulness is desired!

Jet
Husky-Corgi mix
Date: 04/30/2008
Jet is a short-legged Shepherd, probably Corgi mix who is between 3-6 months old. He approaches everyone open-heartedly, shyly and politely with tail wagging! He is the dearest young lad, naturally well-mannered. Jet is a good car traveler – take him everywhere with you. And you’ll want to, because he will steal your heart as soon as you meet him! He gets along w/other dogs and they all really take to him. He is crate and doggy-door trained; about 99% housetrained too.
Joey
Date: 03/27/2008
What a sweet and handsome young man with his blue coat and tan spots above his eyes! He reminded us of the fragile and delightful baby Kangaroos just out of the mother’s pouch – hence JOEY.
Joey, a two-year-old blue Chihuahua, is gentle, loving and VERY affectionate. He’s always ready for a cuddle and is never shy to be the first into your lap when you sit down with your coffee. He will assume the position of “protector of the lap.” Playful as a baby otter, Joey will romp, chase and growl in play with a companion and then crash for a snooze in a sunny spot in the garden or window sill…until he catches his breath for the next play session. Of course, he will gladly accept your offer of a soft lap or space next to you on the couch. Joey is generous with his attention to his humans.
Joey is a beautiful Chihuahua – perhaps THE most beautiful Chihuahua New Mexico Animal Friends has ever seen. These are his good qualities: walks well on leash; is the perfect passenger in the car; is not a barker, but does alert his humans to visitors or surprises; gentle and loving requests gain his trust and he responds positively if asked in a firm but gentle voice; uses a doggie door if available; is good with other dogs, both male and female; would benefit from other canine companions of comparable energy level since Joey likes to play so well. Other things to be aware of: Joey does not like to be badgered, teased, or forced to comply, and we, therefore, recommend no children under the age of 10; Joey can be assertive with other canine companions, but he is really not an alpha; When he first meets a stranger, Joey can act like Napoleon, but he calms when introductions are made.

Levi is very sweet-natured, a little shy at first, cuddly and has a calmness belying his 7 months of age. He if friendly and playful with all dogs, loves to chase, plays with chew toys and stuffed animals, particularly the squeaky kind which he disassembles! He can be assertive and does not enjoy being bossed around--he will use his best canine instructions--anxious to please and is always ready to receive that tummy scratch or ear rub from his human companions. Levi needs leash/harness training, but rides happily in a car and loves outings. Levi comes when called by his name and he knows the basics of house training, but will not always make it outside on time. He will use a doggy door. Levi and cats are an unknown. Levi's preferred home is one with a family that has time to train and give him direction with his manners (but he learns fast). No young children <10 years old or children that may be that age but play rough, or are disrespectful/tease dogs, because of his shyness and dislike of sudden movements. He will make a great companion and would like to learn new tricks and games.

Liyah
Pug - Cattle Dog mix
Date: 05/23/2008
Liyah, or "Leah" is a spayed, female 3-year old Pug and Cattle Dog mix. Leah is a fun, personable, and clever little dog with a big dog personality. She is attentive, quiet, and when inside, lies obediently by your side, watching ou constantly and sticking close. But don't be fooled--she is ready to go when you are, loves to go for car rides, hikes, and walks. Leah is a great little dog but gets bored if left by herself day after day while her person is at work. We are looking for a home where someone is around a good part f the day or has a friednly playmate to keep Leah company. Leah has been well-loved and cared for and is happy and well-adjusted. She was regretfully surrendered by her owner who had changes in her life keeping her from spending time with Leah. She felt is was best to help Leah find a home where she could have the attention she loves and deserves. Leah is wonderful with kids. She is great with other dogs, cats and livestock. If you are normally a person who likes medium to alrger dogs, give this girl a second look. We think you will fall in love with her just as we have.

Lucky's is a big dog and not size-appropriate for tiny tots. He would love to be your shadow and feel your hands rubbing his shiny, soft fur often.

Mack is assertive and confident even with large dogs, but prefers friendly interactions. Mack's preferred home is a mature family with children over 10 years of age. He would thrive where someone is home most of the day and is happy and relaxed in a crate when that is needed. He sleeps well at night and rests lots during the day. He does not enjoy being a solo dog, although will do well if he can be by his humans a lot.

Maggie
Golden Retriever mix
Date: 04/30/2008
I have found my forever family at last! I'm adopted!!
Maggie is intelligent, regal, and has the typical outgoing, cheerful and devoted Golden personality. She is such a loving girl that she needs a human that wants to dote on her, have her as their best and constant companion. Gorgeous Maggie needs a family or person that will enjoy her being their shadow, take her with them most everywhere, and make her a major part of their daily lives. Maggie’s previous owner is in financial distress and could not keep her. Poor sweet Maggie has had three owners and a foster in her young life, and is a bit fragile. She will need a big investment of your heart and time to feel secure that she has found, finally, a permanent home. (This may take up to 6 months.) Fantastic w/kids! A stay-at-home person or frequently-at-home family would be an ideal match. Maggie prefers and needs human love and companionship, but gets along fine with other dogs. She is completely housetrained and an inside, "velcro" dog. Maggie must go to a home that will make a commitment to loving and caring for her for her lifetime.

Maggie
Yellow Labrador Retriever
Date: 07/23/2008
Oh, my! What a character this gal is! Maggie loves the sprinkler and getting into water the most. She loves chew and pull toys. You get a real good work-out from throwing the ball or chew toy for her to chase or by playing pull with her. She does very well during walks and morning jogs; it would be especially cool if her adopted human was a runner and would take her running with them. Or, if they were hunters in the family and they took time to put her through training to field retrieve—she likes to chase the birds in the yard—maybe a natural. Maggie has that lovable personality no one can resist.
She is a 2-year old Golden Lab Retriever.

Neville
Date: 09/16/2007
Neville is a sweet, playful, and very loving one-year-old neutered male with medium-length gray fur. He has a silky, medium-length coat that is a gorgeous solid gray color with a lion’s mane and a beautiful tail. He has been in his foster home since December 15, 2007 and has adjusted to living with 2 dogs (male & female) and 2 cats (both female). He is an energetic blend of playful kitten and mature adult cat who loves all toys. He loves people, is affectionate, very social, and is extremely playful and acrobatic. He is generally a quiet cat, but has an adorable meow. He likes to sleep on the bed with his foster parents at night. He would be happy in a forever home with another cat for a playmate who can keep up with him and appreciates his playful nature. He would also be happy as an only pet if he has lots of love, play time and attention from his humans. Since he is still a young cat and figuring out the world, he needs a loving home that will provide discipline. He enjoys using the scratching post and turbo scratcher. He is not too sure how he feels about dogs. He was afraid of them at first, but now is a little more comfortable around them and even plays with their tails and feet when he thinks they are not watching. Neville is a gorgeous cat with a fun and energetic kitten-like personality who makes us laugh with his antics. Come see him at our adoption clinic and he will purr non-stop when you hold him!
Nicholas
Papillion
Date: 05/19/2008
Nicholas is a neutered male, Papillion 1 1/2 years old. He is very charming and smart. He loves everyone that he meets and wants to be greeted by all. He is very energetic and loves to play. He is crate and house trained, but prefers to have more play time than crate time that's for sure. He loves to go for walks, but needs a little more training on how to stay with the person walking him. He hasn't been walked on a leash much, but it appears he is learning more about it daily and picks it up quickly. The best home for Nicholas would be one that has another small dog and no children under the age of 12 (due to his size), and someone at home much of the day to engage him with frequent play and exercise to release some of his high energy.

I will need a kitty condo with sisal rope scratching post in my new home. Please consider becoming my forever family.

Oliver
Chihuahua-Pug mix
Date: 04/30/2008
Oliver is a male approximately one and a half years old. He is a confident guy who can handle rowdy play even with a 75-lb. shepherd mix. He can quickly rise to the pack leader if he is left to making that decision. Oliver can climb and jump so he needs to be an inside dog when his humans are away. He is completely housetrained and is comfortable in his crate when needed. His energy level is pretty high and he loves long walks. He cuddles up nicely too when he is ready for a nap. Oliver loves his tummy rubs and kisses. He would prefer being adopted into a home where there are other dogs so he could play a lot. He has basic manners down pat, but needs a little training to polish him up. He will bark to greet visitors or to let the other dogs know his intentions. Older family would be ideal and with time to spend on a walk, playtime and cuddling. Because of his small size, older children preferred in the family.
Oscar
Chihuahua
Date: 04/30/2008
Oscar is a neutered, male Chihuahua about 1 year old. OSCAR – exactly! A statuesque little body and the most intriguing eyes – a winner indeed! His soft and beautiful brown coat is delicious to stroke and he loves it. He is young and friendly and this little guy will keep you laughing with his cute gestures and bouncy personality. He is definitely the most loving of lap dogs, and his willingness to please will keep him engaged in play and interested in what you have to teach him. Oscar loves daily outings, playtime, Kongs filled w/peanut butter; and chewing on rawhides. He is NOT a dog for apartment living as he needs yard/garden to romp in. He is almost housetrained, but is reliable using a dog-door. He will need instruction in his new home. Best family match is one that is actively engaged with him and children older than 10. He likes dogs of all sizes and dogs in groups; he loves to run and chase.

Please consider adopting me today.
Peanut
Chihuahua mix
Date: 02/28/2008
Peanut is a neutered male Chihuahua mix who is four years old. Peanut is loving to a fault, sweet temperament, and seeks affection at every turn. He takes every pause in your activity to be an invitation to cuddle, will jump onto your lap, snuggle down and immediately take a power nap! He is focused on his humans, but will play happily with his doggy friends. Much of his day is for relaxing, but he will run outside at the very hint of a chase around the garden. The best home environment for him is one that is calm and routine. Good family match is adults (with teens OK). He is good around other dogs and does not recognize his small size; but is not shy. Joins in the fun. Peanut is almost completely housetrained; uses a doggy-door well. Peanut is a very picky eater and sometimes does not eat (consulting with foster about his food is advised).

Pokey
Pekingese mix
Date: 02/02/2008
I'm adopted!!
Pokey is a quiet dog who loves siestas, naps, snoozing, and sleeping! When he is awake, he loves to take long walks and trots along nicely on a leash. He likes dogs of all sizes and plays chase with them. But, if he’s having a bad day, he may decide they annoy him. Pokey is used to things going his way and unaccustomed to a daily routine. The foster believes this may be due to lack of interaction and human attention in his prior living situation. He needs routine and structure. Pokey is a five-year old neutered male Pekingese mix.

Romeo
Terrier mix
Date: 08/02/2008
Romeo is a delightful, playful, fun-loving 2-year old neutered, male Terrier-of-some-kind! He is fairly energetic, curious and watchful of his environment. Romeo is pretty much housetrained and will “ask” to go out. He does not routinely mark indoors, but has on occasion. He is mindful when asked to stop or come, but would not say he is obedience-trained. Romeo does well on a leash and loves to walk. He will often stretch out and lounge by your feet, be quiet and calm until you change the activity. He would not do well as an only dog or for long periods by himself; his good behaviors would deteriorate if so. He does not like to be grabbed suddenly or surprised; he has snapped but not bitten down. He is fairly submissive, but can exhibit a strong, self-assured position.

Suki
German Shepherd-Lab cross
Date: 03/21/2008
Suki is a spayed, female 3-4 year old white German Shepherd Lab mix. She would make the right family an outstanding house dog. Suki was severely abused and starved before coming to rescue and after a year has recovered emotionally enough to now be ready for her forever home. Her home should be quiet, no raised voices, low key activity only, with not a lot of people coming and going. She is very good with people but because of her history, needs patience and gentle, slow non-threatening handling. She is extremely loving, good with cats and would thrive as an only dog whose guardian would dote on her. Suki does jump high fences with a single bound so will do best as an inside dog, walked on a leash or contained with a 6' fence with no opportunities for her to scale it. Would love an owner/couple who is retired with well behaved grandchildren to dote on her.

He is friendly, very playful, extremely smart, and is exactly the kind of kitten you will love adding to your family.

If you would like to meet Sundance, come to the NM Animal Friends’ Cat Adoption Clinic on Saturday at the PetsMart on Mercantile. He’ll be the adorable, wide-eyed, orange and white kitten, smiling, purring, and hoping to win your heart. Sundance will make a wonderful companion pet and will be your forever friend for years to come!

Thomas is a 14-week old male Miniature Schnauzer who is very easy-going and very gentle with kids. He is housetrained (very well, thank you) and walks great on a leash. Thomas is always ready for treats! And this little happy-go-lucky guy does't care where he sleeps, when he's tired he just plops down and takes a nap (too cute). He loves to tumble and play with the other dogs and to have his toys available to chew on. He is happy to cuddle and to be handled. Thomas is also watchful and responsive and will come to his name. Thomas' preferred home is with canine companionship, a family with time to train and dote on him adequately, and children >10 years of age. An active retired person would be fantastic! He would not be a happy camper if left alone for a long part of the day - he has too much love to give!
