Adopted

🤎 FEBE 🤎

Her World Changed Overnight… But Her Heart Is Still Full of Love.

🆔 61430453
🐶 Breed: Boxer Mix
🎂 Age: 2 Years
♀️ Gender: Female
🎨 Color: Brown/Brindle

Life at the shelter is still very new for Febe. She’s a little unsure, a little scared, and still trying to understand why everything changed so suddenly. Even through the uncertainty, she’ll gently wag her tail for the kind people who stop to say hello, showing that her sweet heart is still very much there.

She was recently surrendered by her owner, and it’s clear she’s still trying to understand why everything she knew suddenly disappeared. The home she was familiar with, the routine she counted on, and the people she loved are all gone.

Even with all of that uncertainty, Febe is incredibly sweet. Her kind heart is still there, quietly waiting for someone to help her feel safe again. The shelter is a big adjustment, so her wonderful personality hasn’t had the chance to fully shine just yet, but you can already see the loving girl she truly is.

And just look at her… her gorgeous brindle coat is absolutely breathtaking. Every swirl and stripe in her beautiful coat makes her one of a kind, but it’s her gentle eyes that will truly steal your heart.

We know that once Febe is back in a loving home, surrounded by patience, kindness, and stability, she’ll blossom into the happy, affectionate companion she’s meant to be.

If you’ve been looking for a loyal best friend who simply needs someone to believe in her, Febe is waiting to meet you. Sometimes the most grateful dogs are the ones whose hearts have been mended by a second chance.

Come meet Febe at Valencia County Animal Shelter and see if she’s the missing piece of your family.

🏡 Meet and greets are always recommended if you have fur babies and children.

The BEST BOY, Bo Bo, Brody.

The “stray” from Artesia. The shelter was full and his time was going to be up. Somehow I saw his post on a site-and knew I needed to save him.

Kris, Bre, and Chase drove to get him. We rescued him but he also rescued us.

Today is heart wrenching, we’ve had him over 10 years. At about 12 years old, we said our final goodbyes. We love you Brody Lee Samora.
Our memories with you Brody, are endless and they make us smile. Thank you for everything our boy.

I still have his posting from the shelter, the day we took him home, and the first few days with him. He was a puppy at 59lbs, later in life he was at his regular weight, 80lbs.

Then, today, he got to go on a “bubye” with dad.
Sissy came over.
Then, his family including Champ his dog brother all came to say our final goodbyes, together.

RIP OUR sweetest, smart, fun, loving boy.

Meet Pippi!
Pippi is a sweet 2-year-old, 7 lb poodle mix who’s had a rough start in life as a stray. Severely matted and learning to fend for herself for a long time, she’s finally safe thanks to our dedicated CMM humane trapping team.
At first, Pippi was cautious and hesitant—still a bit wary of doors or approaching humans—but once in your arms, she melts into love and attention. Now playful, affectionate, and full of energy, she enjoys daily walks, car rides, and playing with her young foster friends. She’s house-trained with a doggy door, sleeps soundly in her crate, and gets along with dogs of all sizes.
Pippi would thrive in a calm, loving home with a secure yard, lots of lap time, and ideally another young, playful dog to share her adventures. A house without young children would be best.
After everything she’s been through, Pippi is ready to give her whole heart to a family who will cherish her forever.
Adoption fee is $225.00.

Crossposting to help Marcy find the FoReVeR home she deserves ❤ We do not have any addtl info, please use contact info below for answers to questions & interest in adoption.

Current location: Abq/Rio Rancho, New Mexico
Contact for interest: Elise - [email protected]
Breed: Catahoula mix
Stats: 5yo spayed female

Marcy has been with her treasured family for years, glued to her Moms side. Unfortunately, her parents are dealing with insurmountable medical issues & Marcy needs to find a new home ASAP. Family members have taken in the other animals from the home & are doing their very best to navigate the situation, but they cannot take Marcy too.
Heres what we know - from the family:

"Marcy was rescued from a severe abuse situation around three years ago and has been deeply bonded to my aunt ever since. She’s used to living on a large airline field with plenty of space and is most comfortable spending time outdoors. She is a very sensitive dog who is especially fearful of men due to her past. While she has been able to live with my uncle, she does best with a patient female caregiver. She is showing signs of hip dysplasia. We are fully committed to covering all medical and care costs, finances will not be a barrier. Our only priority is finding a safe, stable, and appropriate home for her. Marcy is spayed, gets along with other dogs from what we've seen, and does not have any escape history."

.....can you please SHARE Marcys plea to help her find the security of a new home & family ASAP? This is an URGENT need! Thank you 🙏

*Sunny*
Hi! My name is Sunny and I'm a 1.5 year old, 15-pound, male Shih Tzu! I lost my home recently due to my owner having health issues and I'm in search of my new forever family! Because of my recent change in life I am a little nervous and will need time in my new home to feel comfortable. I love other dogs and I like to stick close to them to help me feel safe, so a home with another younger dog that will enjoy my company and like to play with me would be best! I am not bothered at all about cats or kids.
I am doing very good about going potty outside and will ask to go out. I enjoy walks too! I will need a patient adopter to help me feel safe and secure in my new home. I am sweet and cute - but am a young, active dog who needs regular walks, exercise and socialization. I will also require regular grooming to keep looking spiffy!
Adoption fee is $225.00.
