About Humane Society of Lincoln County, New Mexico
HSLC is a non-profit organization, and we are the only shelter in the Lincoln County area. We are always accepting donations, and supplies. We are a small shelter and are working towards building a new, bigger facility to accommodate and house more animals and give them the care and attention they need. We have full time and part time staff who are dedicated to caring for and finding suitable homes for all our animals. We work with Foster homes, transfer facilities and run countless advertisements to get our pets out there. We take time to socialize our pets, and do some basic training. We have a wonderful group of volunteers who come every week, and we are always accepting new volunteers. We hold Off-Site Adoptions, and work with our community to advertise our shelter and hold fundraisers to help us reach our goal of a new facility. We recently opened a Resale Shop which also helps us financially support our shelter.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
