Pupdate: Cookie found a home ❤️

Beautiful Cookie needs a new home even though her owners love her dearly. Loving your pet is realizing sometimes you have to make hard decisions for everyone. Cookie is a 12 week old catahoula Leopard. She is not spayed yet. She is so loving and great with kids, people, and gets along with other dogs too. She is good with horses, cows, goats pigs, and larger farm animals, however, she’s killing the chickens. The owner thinks because she’s still a puppy, she may be playing with the chickens and accidentally killing them , not killing them intentionally. However, he can’t afford to lose any more chickens. If you are interested in meeting Cookie please message us 🐶

❤️Meet Cora (short for Corazon)! ❤️
Cora was rescued a couple of months ago after being seen wandering for days around Sapello. The person who rescued her hoped to adopt her, but unfortunately, Cora has discovered that their chickens are far too interesting — and she keeps killing them.
She is spayed and vaccinated and incredibly sweet and loving with children and dogs. She’s just not a good fit for a home with chicken. A cat-house situation probably isn’t ideal for her either, although the local cats have held their own around her!
The family who has her been calling her Cora, short for Corazon, because of the adorable heart-shaped marking on her head.
She’s a loving girl who deserves a home where she can thrive and where her hunting instincts won’t be a problem. If you know of someone who might be the right fit for little Cora, please reach out or share this post!

Animal Advocates was asked to help re-home Booboo because his owner is dealing with some personal struggles. He is approximately 8 months old, weighs about 25/30 lbs., has parvo vaccines, but needs to be neutered. He is super friendly/loving, great with other dogs but hasn’t been around cats or children. Please consider making him a part of your family and let is know if you would like to meet him ❤️🐶

Animal Advocates of. Northern NM is happy to share with everyone that Mora County has established their own advocate/rescue group called Animal Lovers de Mora Advocates (ALMA).

A few months ago Sheriff Americk Padilla reached out to us with questions on animal welfare because he wanted to make positive changes for the animals in Mora County. Sheriff Padilla had already began purchasing animal supplies to rescue, was working with their county attorney on ordinances, and submitted for an Animal Control position. He knew the process would take time but wanted to start making change as soon as possible. We immediately offered our support and input, and also connected him with AWC and provided him with names of other groups/rescues. We got him connected with Donna Karr from Spay Taos, who has already jumped in and helped spay/neuter many animals from Mora County free of charge. We stressed to Sheriff Padilla the importance of building a team, networking, and collaborating with other groups and they have listened and done all the above.

We are happy for Mora County and thankful for everyone who has joined ALMA to make a difference. Animal Advocates will stand by ALMA and continue to offer our support in any way we can ❤️🐶🐱

Pupdate on sweet Rufus. Sara Jo took him to Turquoise Trail Veterinary Urgent Care yesterday to be assessed and treated. We are so thankful to the wonderful Dr. Andrea Trujillo, vet tech Audrey, and all the staff there for getting him in so quickly and providing such great care.

We found out Rufus is about 12 years old and is deaf and blind. He has many ticks which have made him anemic, and caused a parasite, that he will need antibiotics for long term and possibly indefinitely. This bacterial infection from the ticks is causing severe joint pain and discomfort for him. He has many broken/missing teeth and will need dental work, as well as vaccinations, at a later date due to his immediate state. He had to be sedated to shave him down to remove all the ticks and matting, and to cut his very long nails. His total vet bill came out to $1,782.27. We did receive some donations, and we are so very appreciative for those, so thank you all. If anyone would like to donate and help us with the remainder of the bill, our Venmo will be below and we accept cash/check.

Sara was able to talk to Ulla, owner of Kindred Spirit Animal Sanctuary, and she was kind enough to take in Rufus and give him the best life he deserves. Kindred Spirit also operates off donations, therefore, if anyone would like to donate to their sanctuary and all they do visit their website

Thank you everyone for your continued support in our efforts…we appreciate you all ❤️🐶🐱
