My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Darby is soon to be `paw-roled` from our Paws in the Pen program in partnership with the New Mexico Corrections Department! Each dog is paired with inmate trainers and enrolled in an 8-week training program that is designed to equip the dog with a nice foundation of training that will help them succeed in their new home. Each of these dogs will go home potty and crate trained with a whole list of cues and basic behaviors; to ensure a successful adoption, we are providing four training sessions to adopters, so you can learn what your dog knows, and an invitation to weekly discounted drop-in classes. These dogs also go home with a biothane leash and collar, 6 months of heartworm prevention, are fully up-to-date on all vaccines and medications, and are spayed and neutered.

Darby is a one-year-old true beauty—with the brains to match. This happy girl has been picking up on her training quickly and has already made impressive strides in the program. She’s eager to learn, eager to please, and eager to be part of whatever adventure comes next.

Darby’s joy is impossible to miss. When she’s excited to say hello, her signature butt wiggles take over, and the tips of her ears tell their own adorable story. She’s the kind of dog who brings instant smiles and a whole lot of warmth wherever she goes.

She does well with other dogs and would love canine friends, but she’d prefer a home without feline roommates. Most of all, Darby is ready to share her happiness, loyalty, and zest for life with her forever people.
