My story

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

Meet Tex!

This handsome pitty mix is newer to us so we are still getting to know him. So far we have learned that Tex can be a bit people selective, but when he decides he likes you he is the biggest cuddle bug! Tex can be dog selective, we believe he would do best in a home with no small animals and with another dog who is playful but still knows when to be calm. Because Tex has a pure white coat, he requires limited outdoor time and sunscreen when he goes outside. Tex is going through training to learn how to coexist with people and other pets and is doing very well so far.

Tex is at our main ranch location!

More about this shelter

Our shelter had it's beginnings in the mid 90's and formally became a nonprofit organization in 2001. The dream of Lee and Sophia DiClemente has grown to be the largest no-kill animal shelter in New Mexico. Lee passed in 2010, but Sophia carries on with the support of a small staff, a large number of volunteers, and numerous donors - large and small.
