We are a non-profit animal shelter, located in Roswell, NM--the UFO Capital of the World! We take in thousands of animals every year. We house stray animals and re-home pets given up by owners, that are placed in our care. We are NOT a no-kill shelter, but we keep our pets as long as humanly possible. We are a limited entry shelter. We have to adopt pets befo

re we bring in any new pets. We vaccinate all pets for basic vaccines, although we do not vaccinate for Rabies. Our adoptions fees are:

All pet adoption fees are $50 (which helps to reimburse us for vaccinations and medical care, while in our care)

ADOPTERS ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO PRE-PAY FOR THE PET'S SPAY/NEUTER AT A ROSWELL VET (to be performed before being released to the adopter's home-no exceptions). Make sure to mention that you are adopting a pet from us, so you may receive a discount on the surgery! We take the adopted pet to your vet for the surgery, and you may pick up your new pet from the vet, after the surgery is completed. ADOPTION GUIDELINES:

All dogs must have fenced yards(appropriate for that size dog), and we DO check. All cats adopted must be strickly indoor cats. All pets (even young pups/kits) are spayed or neutered before going into their new home, no exceptions. If you have other dogs, you must bring your other pets to have a meet & greet here at the kennels. We are not funded by any city, county, state, or federal entity. We are totally funded by donations
only. We are always in desperate need of donations to keep us afloat. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP, PLEASE DONATE THROUGH OUR FUNDRZR APP THROUGH FACEBOOK OR ON OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.ROSWELLHUMANE.ORG

We are in need of more Kuranda beds for our resident dogs! These are raised beds that are very sturdy and get the dogs off the cold, hard floor. Please visit this link to purchase one! They will be sent to us to assemble! www.kuranda.com/donate/4406/wishlist

Thanks to the generosity of people near and far, we are very close to achieving our fund raising goals that will enable us to purchase a transport vehicle. We’ve been utilizing a pickup truck with a shell, but its limitations, including lack of heat or air conditioning, have restricted our travel range and schedule. With space for only a few dogs and cats at a time, we’ve made do, but our vehicle’s increasing mileage is becoming a concern, and we worry about its
reliability. Every donation, regardless of its amount, propels us forward in our mission to provide a secure and trustworthy vehicle for the transportation of our animals.

To her credit, Jaqueline continues to patiently wait for a home of her own. We can’t believe she continues to be overlooked because she is absolutely the sweetest, most laid-back girl you’ll ever meet. Her photos don’t do justice to just how beautiful she is. Jaqueline is about three years old now, loves to go for walks and would love to just hang out with her special person or family. Please come meet her - we promise you’ll love her like we do!

Noah is a five month old chihuahua mix that is an absolute delight! He came to us in April and has been a staff favorite. He is a fast learner, very loving and playful. We think Noah would be a great addition to a family that wants a smaller dog with a big personality!

Blue eyed, eight month old Holly has been with us since March. She is what we refer to as a “Supermutt” but she could have some Husky in there with those gorgeous eyes. Not only is she breathtakingly beautiful but she is incredibly intelligent and will be a joy to work with and train. Holly would thrive in a home with an active person or family as she would love to take long walks and play. Come meet Holly if you would love to have a loyal companion.
