For more photos please visit our Facebook page. .facebook/pages/Almost-Home-New-Mexico/203840136304815 Approximate DOB 05/19/2018 Size - Small (mom is Marnie who is maybe 6 lbs) History- We saw Marnie posted on FB by a small, rural shelter she was very, very pregnant so needed rescue badly. We agreed to bring her into our program if we found a foster for her. We posted her on our foster page begging for a foster and thankfully Lisa said she could foster her. We set up transport and the day before transport she gave birth. A wonderful friend of ours Debbie said she could help with transport so between her and Eileen each driving halfway and Lisa fostering we were able to bring them in to rescue quickly. They are now old enough to start looking for their happily ever afters. This family includes mom Marnie, and then the 3 sisters Chelsea, Maggie, and Jenny. Temperament- Very playful and sweet. A little shyer than her sister but still very happy and playful. Loves playing with children as long as they are sweet and gentle. Energy Level- Typical high puppy energy Dogs/Cats- They have met both cats and dogs and seem playful and happy with both. Housetrained- Using a dog door These babies are absolutely darling. Mom has a wonderful, loving temperament. Since coming into rescue they are living in a home with other dogs and cats and doing great. They are getting lots of love and attention and just loving life. They will make wonderful additions to any family wanting a happy, healthy, playful puppy. Chelsea has the slightly folded ears and her sister Jenny has the stand up ears. Please be aware puppies are a lot of work - they need a lot of training and socialization to grow into well behaved adult members of the family. As puppies they will sometimes mouth/bite and scratch in play. Children should be taught how to be gentle with all animals and to understand that puppies aren't trying to be mean but might accidentally scratch or bite them. If you have a sensitive child/children and wanting to get a pet for them maybe consider an adult that has been around children- they are a lot less work as well. Otherwise there might be a lot of tears and nonsense when the child doesn't understand why the puppy scratched or nipped them. So please be fully aware and do your research if you are considering a puppy. Adoption fee $250 includes spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations (4 for puppies), deworming, microchip, rabies, collar and leash, training information, and all the support you need. Send us an e-mail to adoptalmosthomenm requesting an application to adopt this sweetie!! Animals are seen by appointment only. An application must be submitted to us prior to making an appointment. We do give a discount when adopting multiple pets.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
