Sometimes the best dogs wag their tails so hard, they fall right off 🫢 Archer may be missing part of his, but he still knows how to wiggle his b***y like a disco queen 🕺 A natural born trickster, Archer will present you with a toy just to sn**ch it away. Are you a trail runner? Then Archer is the boy for you... Just don't blink because this pooch is FAST👁️ Archer's adoption fee is paid through 5/18 by New Mexico Mutual, so you can save a life TODAY and not break the bank.

One year... 12 Months... 365 Days. A full trip around the sun. That's how long our friend Pedro has been in the Shelter 🥺 He's a highly affectionate goodboy, and very considerate of his human. He loves to pick out a favorite stick just to share with you. He's not afraid to stretch out his legs and show you how fast he really is⚡Blue Chip Insurance is covering Pedro's adoption fee from now through 5/17 so you can take him home at no cost. Seasons change, but Pedro's waitin' on YOU 🫵

Too dumb for New York City, too ugly for LA... it's a good thing our boy Waylen is right here in Santa Fe. Despite what the country music legend sings 🤠 this handsome and intelligent dog WILL hunt. He loves searching for treats almost as much as he loves people 💕 Don't let his stoic gaze fool you, Waylen is a serious goofball. You don't have to spend anything to bring this ramblin' man home all thanks to Pacifico Beer 🍻 He's gentle, he's affectionate, he wants to go home with you.

The shelter ran an operational deficit this year, but in 2023 did receive a large donation that has bolstered its reserves.
