Story
Olivia was a great dog, but last year, during my wife’s pregnancy she became difficult when it came to staying in our yard and also became extremely anxious. She does not like loud noises and needs open space to get all her energy out. She is house trained and kennel trained, she is very energetic, and will play a lot. We have a big mancoon cat and she has no issue with her. She needs someone to give her a lots of attention. It’s hard for us to be there for her constantly like she needs or work in some behavioral training for her due to our scheduling with the baby and our other animals.

Story
This handsome boy is looking for some fun and entertainment! He loves to play with toys, and will pick his favorite and let you know that you are welcome to share in the game! He enjoys going for a long walk, and would love to be invited to go for a hike in the foothills! Even though he is not sure about the pool in the play yard, he is willing to get his front paws a little wet! Maybe you could show him how much fun a wading pool or stream can be! This boy is a delight, and has so much potential to be the very best forever member of your family!

Story
Meet Flash — Tiny Baby Cow Disguised as a Pit Bull Flash is a 7-month-old neutered Pit Bull mix who currently weighs less than 30 pounds and seems genuinely surprised every time someone tells him he’s adorable. Despite his superhero name, Flash is less “high-speed action movie” and more “sweet little shadow who wants to stay close to his people at all times.”This affectionate young guy is easy to walk, easy to handle, and happiest when he’s near humans he trusts. The shelter environment can feel a little overwhelming for him, so he may be shy at first, but once he settles in, his loving personality quickly starts to shine. He already knows “sit,” takes treats gently, and has some very respectable manners for such a young pup.Flash enjoys playing with toys and is one of those magical dogs who actually brings them back and politely drops them at your feet like a tiny gentleman trying to pay rent. He also loves wading in the pool to cool off and has perfected the art of tiny splashy zoomies. According to his previous owner, Flash is housebroken, crate trained, walks well on leash, and has already had some training. They also reported he is friendly with adults and kids. He’s also apparently been studying advanced escape artist techniques and knows how to open gates, so he’ll need a secure yard and supervision while outside. Tiny body. Big criminal mastermind energy.He seems friendly with dogs at the fence and came in with another dog, though slower introductions and a meet-and-greet are recommended while he continues building confidence.Underneath the shy puppy moments is a sweet, loyal companion who just wants reassurance, affection, a pool to splash in, and someone to stick close to while he figures out this whole growing-up thing.

Story
Ember is a very sweet, loyal girl.She adores her family and does well with children. She's super smart, very polite to us, listens pretty well, and has a calm, very quiet personality. She likes car rides, hikes, naps, belly-rubs. She walks on a leash well, and has great house-manners.She gets along fine with our other dogs, and enjoys keeping an eye on our housecat.When people visit she will do best if she's on a leash or in her kennel/dog run. She is not friendly to strangers, but loves and is loyal to her own people and wants to protect them.She's basically an oversized sheltie.She might love a job on a farm/ranch, or watching over a large yard,but she is also flexible enough to be a nice companion indoors provided she gets daily exercise, some good outdoor time and has an experienced owner.

Story
Penny is seemingly a dachshund/border collie mix who is very friendly and adaptable. Penny likes some active time but also enjoys snuggling/chilling inside. She walks well on a leash but will occasionally stop to look at something or sniff. She was quick to adapt to apartment living and has done well with meeting so many people and dogs in the building. She really likes kids and other dogs. She also plays with a kitten that lives down the hall, so she seems to enjoy other animals in general. She follows the "sit" command all the time and is often able to perform "stay" and "come". She has done well walking down to busy areas and greeting people and other dogs. She can be left alone in a crate for a few hours but can get frustrated if crated often. She sheds like a Border Collie. She has occasional accidents in the apartment but this may be due to the difficulty of getting her to the bathroom area of the apartment complex. She is learning to ring a bell to be let out and is getting it.

Story
Meet Henry! Henry was born around April 1st, 2025, and he lives life at full speed. From the moment he wakes up, Henry is on the move and ready for whatever comes next. He is outgoing, high-energy, and experiences the world with a level of enthusiasm that is honestly impressive. Henry is silly, playful, and very social. He loves his toys, loves to play with other dogs, and wants to be involved in absolutely everything happening around him. He is dog friendly and cat friendly, and would do his best in a home where he has plenty of opportunities to stay active and keep his brain busy. Henry is happiest when he’s running, wrestling, exploring, or bouncing from one activity to the next. Henry is a mix of heeler, pit/staffordshire terrier, and chihuahua. His constant motion comes from a place of very high anxiety, and because of that, Henry would really benefit from an adopter who understands anxious dogs and knows how important structure, routine, and appropriate outlets can be. An active home that enjoys training, enrichment, and consistency will help Henry thrive. Another playful dog in the home would be a great bonus for him. Henry is potty trained and crate trained, though like any dog, we expect there may be a few accidents as he adjusts to a new home and routine. He is up to date on all vaccinations and heartworm prevention, neutered, and microchipped. If you have experience with anxious dogs and are looking for a fun, high-energy companion, then our sweet Henry may be the right fit for your family. If you'd like to meet Henry, please fill out our adoption application at www.bbanimalrescue.org/adopt.

Female, Adult
Bernalillo, NM
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story
Meet Charlotte! Miss Charlotte came to us emaciated, sick, and trying to feed five two-and-a-half week old puppies. Charlotte is a survivor if we ever saw one! Charlotte is likely about 2-3 years old. She loves to play and wrestle, and is actually getting pretty good at catch! She does a great job on leash and loves to go for walks - she can't wait to get out there and explore the world. Charlotte has loved every person she has met so far, and would make a wonderful companion for anyone who likes to socialize. Charlotte is potty trained, crate trained, and is definitely smart enough to learn any and all new skills you'd like to teach her! Charlotte was recently diagnosed with acquired Myasthenia Gravis. As a result, she does have megaesophagus and needs to eat her meals upright in a Bailey chair. Her condition is being managed with pyridostigmine - one pill morning and evening with her breakfast and dinner. At her current dose of medication, she isn’t exhibiting any symptoms (as long as she gets her upright meal times) and is otherwise incredibly healthy and strong. However, with this condition, adopters do need to be aware that symptoms can improve or worsen throughout a dog’s life and medication may need to be adjusted accordingly. For this reason, we are seeking adopters who have a good relationship with their vet and are either experienced with MG, or are willing to learn about this autoimmune condition. There's no limit to what we think this girl can do if given a chance. She loves to cuddle, and honestly just enjoys being the center of attention. We think Charlotte would thrive either as the only dog in the house or with a couple of other canine siblings. As long as there are people around, this beautiful lady is happy. If you enjoy frequent trips to Wiggle-town, this may be the perfect match for you and your family! Charlotte is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and heartworm prevention, and microchipped. If you'd like to meet Charlotte or if you have any questions about her, our adoption process, or anything else, please feel free to email us at contact@bbnimalrescue.org or call/text us anytime at 505-333-8980.
