Jondeau
Pit X young adult male. Very sweet and affectionate. Gets along
great with other dogs in his foster family.
He was a stray who was going to be shot because of his breed,
but kind people took him home to foster.

Griffin
Very handsome Australian shepherd mix. About 5 years old.
Big hair coat and a lot of energy. My daughter bought a house
in March of this year, and he was left behind in the garage
with food but no water.

| Griffin is very obedient, a very
good walker on the leash and loves to walk. We had him neutered,
chipped and he has all his shots. He loves to fetch and can run
and jump all day. He's a good watch dog, he has lived at this house
through two or three owners and is very alert to people coming
to to the door, but is easily called off when you open it. He gets
along well with other dogs, we have had him at our house with a
total of 4 or 5 dogs altogether with no problem. He is beautifully
house trained and never messes the house. He needs love and a lot
of exercise. |
On the negative side, he is very high strung and
nips at the grandchildren when they are running around. I think
it is the herding instinct in him, he gets uptight when everyone
is not all in one place. He has nipped my grandson twice, the second
time was a pretty good puncture. We have also found out that he
doesn't get along well with cats. |

Lambert -
Pitbull male, just over 1 year old. Neutered, microchipped and
vaccinated.
Lambert loves children and sleeps with my 9yo. and 6yo. sons
every night. We are still fine tuning his leash training but
he's fairly easy to walk and loves to see us get the leash for
him. He would be the perfect only dog in a house full of kids
to play with. We have discovered that he likes to wear clothes
too. I recently bought him a sweater and a santa suit and he
gets very excited when we tell him it's time to get dressed.
I have a lot of experiance training dogs as well as horses and
he is one of the sweetest, most loyal dogs I have ever come across.
His disposition is wonderful and he is very eager to please his
humans.
Should be the only 4-legged member of
the family. Good in the house.

Hi my name is Mia,
I'm a rescue from Texas. I was
found by some nice people passing through Texas. My owners at the
time were going to kill me by throwing me in the garbage at 5wks
old. I was really sick and they didn't want to take me to the vet.
The people that took me were appalled that I was going to be taken
out with the trash so they took me home. They tried their best
to take care of me but they just didn't know what was wrong. They
took me to K9 Performance Kennels because they knew I would be
taken care of. I suffered from a severe case of mange (a genetic
disorder that was cured) and a horrible skin infection. The vet
even said I probably would never get better and have to be put
down. It was the worst case he had ever treated. I had no hair
and looked like a hairless Chihuahua. 3 months of treatment and
I started getting better and getting my hair back. It has been
4 months and I'm completely healthy with a beautiful coat. I'm
one of the few rescues to know what I'm mixed with since I was
taken from the breeders. My mom was a Jack Russell Terrier and
my dad was a small pit bull mix. I'm full grown at 30lbs and I'm
8months old. I currently live with 13 other brothers and sister
and I'm very social with dogs. I like to play rough! Most of the
dogs I play with are Pit Bulls, but I am very respectful of the
older dogs I live with. I am micro chipped, current on shots, and
spayed. Please consider giving me the home I deserve!! Please call
505-916-0093 and talk to Lisa. customk9performance@yahoo.com |

The blond is "Idgy" and she is a female. The black
haired one is "scooter". Hard to believe, but there are
brother and sister.
They are spayed and neutered, in great health, and all shots are
current. I have all records of care. They are house broken and
well behaved. Very people friendly and have been around all ages.
They are also leashed trained. They sit and lay and stay. They
are medium sized, @ 35 - 40 pounds each. They spend the nights
in the house, free, and do not tear things up,

This is Gus! He’s a 2 year old, neutered, heeler/rottweiler/malamute
mix, medium sized, weighing about 35 pounds.
He’s up to date on his vaccinations, and is good with cats
and other dogs. He’s an affectionate, happy, bouncy, little
guy with a great sense of humor. This is a wonderful
dog.
If you’d
like to meet him, call Dana at 505-776-8850, canineshrink@TaosNet.com
Free in-home consultation, & training
classes! |
Gus was a feral dog, until about a year
ago- “feral” meaning a domestic animal that has reverted
to, or been born in the wild, and that lives without a human caretaker.
He was living with a pack of wild dogs near Penasco, NM, where he
was born.
When he and his brother were captured, they were scheduled to be
euthanized, since feral dogs are un-adoptable- just like wild creatures,
they are afraid of people. Unfortunately, they are still domestic
animals, and lack the necessary instinct to survive independently
of people- the average feral dog lifespan is about two years.
As a dog/people trainer & behaviorist, I had a theory that given
enough patience, training, & socialization, ferals would bond with
and accept leadership from humans, just like regular dogs do, since
they are still domestic dogs- too domestic to make it on their own. At
the time, I had already been working with another feral dog for a few
months, and he was making progress, although slowly. So I took Gus
and his brother, Gabe, and they became the next two feral dogs in my
experiment. As it turned out, Gus & Gabe ended up being the easiest
dogs to “reclaim” that I’ve worked with so far. They
are both very easy-going and have happy-go-lucky, cheerful temperaments.
Gabe was adopted last fall, and is doing wonderfully in his new home.
His new momma, would be happy to answer any questions you may have
about adopting a formerly feral dog.
Over time, as I worked with more
feral dogs, I found that they were a delight to train, being super
responsive & attentive. They are usually very good with other dogs,
and bond closely with their human pack. All of these things are true
of Gus, who is still looking for his person. He knows all his basic
obedience- and a few extras. He has learned a lot of new things in
the past year, like to accept riding in a car, getting bathed & having
his nails trimmed, and live in a house. |

Angel is a very sweet and mellow 7 y.o. husky mix. She
has a soft, beautiful light red coat and soulful brown eyes. Albuquerque
Animal Control couldn't tell us much about Angel--only that she was
a stray and spayed. But Angel has told us plenty since being in foster
care. Angel prefers people to dogs, and she really hopes to go to a
home where she doesn't have to share her human companions with other
dogs. It really makes her cranky! (She might be okay with cats). Angel
loves laying by your feet, taking leisurely leash walks by your side,
or accompanying you in the car. She doesn't mind staying at home alone
while you're gone either and she's not interested in any escape antics!

Sparky
This mellow little neutered male chow mix was found tied to a stake by a belt
without water or shelter. Since then he has been at the Rio Grande Shelter (9
years) until it closed recently. I would love to keep him but I have 3 other
dogs and an ailing mother.
Sparky is very low maintenance. All he wants is some food, shelter and a lot
of love which he returns tenfold. He loves going for a short walk but doesn't
require it. His arthritis limits him a bit but he will follow me around just
to be close. He gets along with older dogs (not puppies) and people but loves
to tell people that he is protecting me with his hoarse bark. He is a real sweetheart
and deserves a great home with loving people. |
