The latest news, 7/7/2008
Thanks to all who helped with the sale last Saturday, 5th of July; great outreach and we may also have gotten some new volunteers.That night we got a call from Kristine at the laundromat. It seems someone from Kentucky had been doing their laundry, going around asking people if they wanted a dog... when Kristine came back from running an errand they were gone and the dog was locked in the Paloma Blanca Laundromat, scared and whining in the bathroom. (I say at least they didn't dump her on the road or in the woods); thanks to Kristine we have her in a foster home (thank you Jan!). Her ears needed major attention which she got today at Salazar Vet, thank you Dr. Tricia Albins. Holly named her Missy; she's Weimaraner, has had pups. Very sweet; even though the ear treatments are uncomfortable she hasn't growled or snapped. We scanned her, no chip. So, she is looking for a good home.Also, when I stopped at our sister organization and Taos' animal shelter, Stray Hearts, they had a cat just brought in in need of fostering. She is very sweet, may be pregnant. If you can provide her with a permanent or foster home she is temporarily being fostered by Holly. (Yay, Holly!)

Gail Cisneros and Suzanne Tauber are the co-directors of this group. We have both been working with animals for over 30 years. We began working together almost 10 years ago and have a wonderful group of volunteers. We welcome anyone who is interested in working with us in any capacity.
