Rescue FAQs

We are a non profit totally run by volunteers. We are presently focusing on the low income mining towns of Grant County, NM. where there is a huge need. We have saved over 130 dogs and a several cats from being euthanized in the shelters here by finding homes and transferring them to non-kill shelters in the last 8 years. We have recently organized and gotten our non-profit status. We also assist with spay and neuter, vaccinations, home shelters, kennels and food for our community. We depend on donations and appreciate any when an animal is adopted. We work with the ACO's of each village, and have donated needed items for the animals for their comfort. We also hope to start an education program in schools to bring more compassion in that setting.
