Hey ABQ folks, We foster on occasion for Bernalillo County Animal Care and Resource Center. I just got an email from the foster coordinator …
“To our wonderful foster community,
I want you all to know we love every animal we care for and sometimes just don’t have the capacity to care for them all. We try our best and want to be honest with you to let you know how you can help.
Since the beginning of the month, we have taken in 66 animals. That is an average of 7 animals a day. Our shelter is equipped to hold 111 healthy dogs, this includes the kennels of puppies, small breed dogs and larger breed dogs. Every single kennel that holds larger breed dogs is full and some kennels have more than one dogs due to limited space. “
Fostering is a great way to get that animal fix, without any long term commitment. The shelter will provide food and any additional necessities, it’s no cost out of pocket aside from time and space. If you’ve never considered it, they could use the help.
