Story
Jack Jack is a medium sized super high energy doggo that loves to run and play! He is people selective and loves to protect his family. Because he tends to get very attached, he would need a home where someone is there for me 24/7. He prefers females as he is more comfortable with them, so he would need to go slow when meeting males. He is great with other dogs and would love to have a playmate. He also loves to play in water, so a small dog pool is preferred!! He is definitely still a puppy at heart and gets incredibly fast zoomies! He would do best in a home where he can be very active and play as long as he wants! He would also do best in a home with older children and adults since he is very high energy. If you are looking for a hiking buddy, a running buddy or just a very active playmate he would be the perfect fit for you!He can be found at the main ranch location. For more information you can email dogswmr@gmail.com

Story
Where have you “Bean” all my life! I’m a happy, handsome young lad with a heart as big as my smile. I was house and crate trained in my previous home. When you take me home, please give me a few days to learn the ropes at your house. I get along well with kids (ages 10-18) and dogs. I love walks and playtime. I’m also learning my manners—I sometimes can’t resist a little counter surfing—so I’ll thrive best with a family who can provide some training, patience, and plenty of positive reinforcement. I will most importantly thrive in a home where I can be a cherished companion, get regular exercise, and be part of a family that truly loves me. A team member says, "Bean is a sweet, playful boy. He's always happy to see you and gets the cutest wiggles. He's a smart guy - he picked up on some of the agility equipment in our park immediately, and he can sit at thresholds (doors, gates) on command, sometimes proactively without you asking. He's very treat-motivated and eager to please and seems highly trainable in addition to being a lovebug."

Story
Kipper is an exceptionally friendly young dog who has been described as "gentle, funny, cuddly and very playful". He has lived successfully with dogs, cats, and children (ages 1–10), and he is crate trained. This sweet boy enjoys toys, fetch and going on walks. He is attentive and obedient, and he already knows several commands, including sit, stay, down, speak and roll over. He can sometimes be a little cautious around other animals but warms up quickly and does well once comfortable. If you have a home that can match his playful energy, then he's waiting patiently for you to come meet him!

Story
Meet Pez — yes, like the dispenser, and just as fun to have around This 10-month-old neutered Australian Kelpie mix is basically a pocket-sized bundle of softness and wiggles. Seriously, he’s so soft you might forget what you were doing mid-pet. It happens. Pez is a playful guy who loves his toys. He’s affectionate, sweet, and enjoys being close to his people once he warms up. New places can make him a little shy at first, but give him a minute (and maybe a snack), and you’ll start to see his personality pop. Speaking of snacks—Pez is very treat motivated… maybe too enthusiastic. He’s still learning that fingers are not part of the reward system, so gentle reminders to take treats nicely will go a long way.Pez seems very interested in other dogs through the fence and, thanks to his manageable size, he’s easy to handle—perfect for someone looking for a fun, trainable companion without being dragged down the street like a kite. Pez is still a young guy and will need continued training, but he’s smart, eager, and ready to learn—especially if snacks are involved (see above). If you’re looking for a soft, silly, slightly snack-obsessed sidekick, Pez is ready to dispense some love into your life.

Meet Tapanga!This girl has the sweetest personality, she can be a little shy on first meetings but she warms up quickly. Tapanga loves to play fetch but she also loves to snuggle and get belly rubs. Tapanga had issues with another dog her size in her previous home, we think she may do best in a home with dogs smaller than her or as an only dog.Tapanga is at our Main Ranch location!Watermelon Mountain Ranch(Across from Cleveland High School)3251 Westphalia Blvd. NERio Rancho, NM 87144505-221-2359Wed-Sun 11am-4pm(adoptions and tours until 3pm)

Story
Meet Lilly! This beautiful 60 pound girl has such a beautiful story. Miss Lilly was an emotional support doggie to her owner who suddenly passed away. Right after, she was taken to the Bernalillo Shelter where she was soon put on their Euthanasia list. A friend of the lady who previously owned Lilly contacted us in hopes that we could save her as she knew what an amazing and sweet girl she was. Currently she is working with a trainer, who is helping her overcome her need to guard people. She is doing fantastic with her training and it letting all people come and love on her. The trainer is also willing to work with her in the home with whoever is interested in adopting her. She would need a mandatory trial adoption during this training period, to ensure everything goes smoothly.Lilly does need to be a single dog in the home.If you would like to meet Lilly, she is at our main ranch location, or you can email dogswmr@gmail.com.
