Our Covid/Adoption/Meetgreet policies:
Please email us to see if the pup is still available (DesertPawsNM@gmail.com) If the pet is still available well send you the link to the application.

After weve approved your application, there will be a phone/zoom call where we can answer your questions and discuss a time to bring the dog to your home to meet your family members and current pets. The meetgreet/adoption must include all household members and pets. Please wear masks and keep socially distanced (as will we). Everything will take place outside. 

Our adoptables are fostered and we like to keep in touch with the individuals/families that adopt (please send us an update/pic of the pets once in a while). We look forward to meeting you and your pets!

You must live within our adoption area to adopt from us (Abq, Santa Fe, Rio Rancho, Los Alamos/White Rock areas). Please dont apply if you live in another state or outside of the stated locale.

If you are just shopping around for a dog, please let us know that.

Thank you for your understanding! We look forward to meeting you and your pets!
