Story
Here comes princess Peaches! At 11lbs, this sweet little lady is in desperate need of home, more so than others. She just wants to be loved and held all the time, but her biggest issue is that she is people selective, and once she loves you, she`s fiercely loyal and lovable. Clever Peaches will let you know right away if she trusts you. Upon initial meeting her and picking her up, she may be very vocal before finally getting picked up. We think she may have had a traumatic past that causes her to react selectively to people. But once she`s comfortable with you, she`s an absolute love. Peaches just knows what works best for her, and we cannot wait until she finds her forever person who will give her that and more!(Peaches has what appears to be a heart arrhythmia that comes and goes with stress, as she is a Parvo survivor! Because of this, a medical wavier must be signed for adoption.)Peaches is at our Cottonwood Mall location!Going to the Dogs (& Cats)Resale Shop & Adoption CenterCottonwood Mall(2nd Level next to MOR Furniture)10000 Coors Bypass NWABQ NM 87114505-867-5347Mon-Sat 11-5pm.

Story
Sweetheart most definitely lives up to his name! At 9.5lbs, Sweetheart is a scruffy, smart, sweet little boy who can be a little shy when he first meets someone. And when he DOES feel comfortable with you, he sometimes speaks with his mouth, with playful nibbles, so we think a home without any young children would be best for him. He does like to be with the other dogs here, because he loves to be playful, so if you have another dog, we recommend bringing them along to meet! He`s slowly learned to trust humans, because when we first got him, it was clear that he was terrified of people at too young of an age. But all Sweetheart needed was time, patience and understanding, and now he`s a playful, loving boy. And if you give him the time and love he needs, Sweetheart will make the greatest little companion in his forever home. Sweetheart is in a fantastic foster home!Email dogswmr@gmail.com to set up a meet and greet with them!

Story
I am a very sweet girl. I was hit by a car and have permanent nerve damage in my left rear leg. It will be amputated soon. The vet thinks I had distemper as a youngster because I tend to have "tics". None of that stops me! I still need love and a furever home. Will you be willing to love me always??

I was adopted as a little puppy but it did not work out. I am now a bit bigger but still loving and friendly. Believe or not, I really am a Chihuahua - I have 44% Chihuahua in me!! I am just a bit shy at first - it takes me a little bit to get to know you and new surroundings, but I get used to you pretty fast and love to be loved!! Can I find my furever home this time? A $75 non-refundable deposit is required to hold a puppy.

Story
I came to ACR very thin and sad - thus the name Triste. I came to ACR very thin and sad - thus the name Triste. My foster mom says that I am aloof at first but once I get to know you I am loving. My bestest thing to do is to sit on your lap. My second bestest thing is to play with a ball - I love to chase it and bring it back to you to chase again. I get along with my foster sibs. I am putting on weight and really look good! I am working on potty training - but I will learn!
