Hello! My name is Burnt Marshmallow and I'm a little girl who was born on March 24.

Story
Dream dog alert!  Meet Babe  She’s pretty, very affectionate, attentive, learns best with petsies and praise, and is highly engaged with her humans. If Babe were able to crawl inside you to be closer she would, but she’ll suffice with snuggling in your lap every time you slow down and sit down. When you’re on the move she’s your shadow: helping you with the gardening, assisting with making supper, entertaining the kids while you take a bubble bath. Whatever you need her to do, Babe is your girl! She’s gentle, kind, eager, and loving. She’s just turned one year old, walks nice on the leash, is house trained, and loves getting brushed. Babe is great with dogs and friendly with all ages of people. She’s an Aussie mix, perfectly sized at around 45 pounds, and she’s fixed and up to date on shots. Babe also has a microchip and she’s current on flea and tick prevention. Her adoption fee is $75. What Babe loves most is being close, connecting, loving and being loved. If you’re looking for your shadow, you’ve found her  To meet this beautiful Babe any day of the week reach out to us at 575-740-0643 or message here on Facebook.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 21, 2026, 5:04 pm

Story
Hello folks! I'm Nutmeg and I'm everything you're looking for in a dog. Need housetrained? I wouldn't dream of making a mess. Need a girl who excels at agility and is active but also loves lounging with you on the sofa with you watching Netflix? Righty-oh! Thats me. Want a pup who pays close attention to everything her owners says? I'm your girl! I know my commands, look and listen, and focus well on my people. But more than that, I've lived in a family with children and was the apple of my family's eye. They could not keep me but can attest to the love in my heart, the goodness of my soul, the gentleness and kindness I bring to my home. I'm an absolute gem and I aim to show you that on our very first meeting. I am five years old, maybe a beagle/terrier mix, and 40 pounds. I am friendly, happy, and sweet. I've lived well with a dog my size and my family said I am good with cats too. I would be happy to have a family where there is usually someone around like a parent or another pet, as I am used to a lot of togetherness. I enjoy being in a loving home so much and I cannot wait until I have that again. Until then, I'll keep making everyone here at Desert Haven smile. I have a big beautiful one of my own too and I like to use it often. I'm a happy girl even though I have a medical condition. I have diabetes. This is a condition which requires me to have a shot of insulin after I eat breakfast and another shot of insulin after supper. I'll need these insulin injections for the rest of my life. My insulin helps me stay healthy and I know that so guess what I do? I sit perfectly well for my shot. My caretaker is able to give my shot lickety split and then we hug and it's like it didn't even happen! I'm such a good girl. I wonder if there is a human diabetic out there that would love me as a companion? But really, the shots are pretty simple so anyone who is awesome could make me part of their family and the folks at Desert Haven will teach you all about my healthcare plan and how to do my injections and meal timings. My health condition is a blip in my day really. The rest of the time we spend hanging out and snuggling together. I have a big soft cushy doggie bed and I love to jump into it then I get cozy. I love going for walks too. I'll also be spending a lot of time snoozing lots of the day away because you know how us dogs like to snoozeatooze. But don't forget play time because that's on of my favorite times of the day. Chase chase chase the toys! Squeak squeak squeak. Most of all though, I crave love. I am love! So if I'm your girl, there will be big love in store for all of us. I am a bestie of all besties. Are you in need of a companion? I am yours. To meet me: Drop in at Desert Haven on Tuesdays 9-4 or call/text 575-740-0643 to schedule an appointment any day of the week because guess what Greta does, she drops everything to do intros!

Story
Hello there! My name is Lucky and it's really a misnomer because you're going to be the lucky one to have me in your life. And I'm not blowing smoke up your butt. I'm that awesome.    By all accounts I'm sweet, snuggly, and so very loving. I double dog dare you to find anyone at Desert Haven that says otherwise. They all love me because I'm so lovable. Well, truth be told, every dog here is lovable and the volunteers here love every dog. But if you pressed I know there are a few of them that would point to me and whisper, "He's My Favorite!" No one here wants any dog to feel like they're not the favorite but here's why I rise to the top of the heap of Darling Dogs of Desert Haven.    First off: I meet people in a friendly and happy way, from young to old. No one has to concern themselves with, "How should we do this introduction?" because I am just easy. I keep four on the floor, have a mega-watt smile, and wag my tail in delight. I'm big at 75 pounds but I'm gentle and very friendly.    Secondly: I love dogs and have had many dog friends in my three years of life on this Earth. I've lived well with small dogs and big dogs. I love to play and am a congenial fellow. If there were a pageant I would be a shoe-in for Mr. Congeniality.   Third: I am so very loving. I will snuggle right into your lap if you'll have me. If you think I'm too big for that, I will lay right next to you. I like some part of me touching some part of you. I love spooning and all things affection. Activity-wise, I am up for a walk, going to the dog park or the brewery for a cold one, playtime in the yard or doggie play dates -- but at the end of the day there simply must be snuggle time. I'm a world class snuggler and it's part of my charm!   Lastly, here are some more nuggets about me: I'm housetrained, crate trained, a perfect car traveler, a great eater, neat and tidy (I wouldn't dare mess anything up in the house), love long naps, and will not settle for anything less than being treated beautifully and with great care. I am up to date on shots, neutered, and microchipped. I'm healthy, happy, and full of life. My adoption fee is $75.   To sum it up: I am one of the best dogs you'll ever meet. I've got an enormous head and an even bigger heart. I love and attach and make the house a home. I came into rescue because my person passed away but I'm no longer grieving. I'm ready! I'm ready for my next great love. Is it you?   Love, Lucky  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 21, 2026, 5:04 pm

Story
I am Guppy! Hello! I am a beautiful fawn colored girl who maybe has some pittie mixed with everything else. I am a blend of everything good and right. My birthday is 3-7-26 which means I'm on the young side so I am still living in foster care. My foster mama thinks I'm the prettiest puppy ever and there are so many oohs and ahhs when everyone meets me that I bet she's right on the money. When you adopt me, you are adopting a gorgeous puppy who will grow into a smashingly beautiful little lady of a dog.    I love playing with my pup friends. We horse around, play toys, wrestle with each other. Lots of fun! I also sometimes enjoy a peaceful rest all by myself. I like to be part of the group and I know how to be independent. Best of both worlds you get in me!    I have puppy shots but the rest of my procedures will come later and Desert Haven will help my adopter get them done (spay, rabies vaccination, more puppy shots, and my microchip). They believe in making sure we are healthy as well as happy! My happiness overflows all over my foster home and I'm ready for it to flow into your home!    Love, Guppy  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 21, 2026, 5:04 pm
