We are a non-profit animal shelter, located in Roswell, NM--the UFO Capital of the World!

We take in thousands of animals every year. We house stray animals and re-home pets given up by owners, that are placed in our care. We are NOT a no-kill shelter, but we keep our pets as long as humanly possible. We are a limited entry shelter. We have to adopt pets before we bring in any new pets. We vaccinate all pets for basic vaccines, although we do not vaccinate for Rabies. Our adoptions fee

s are:

All pet adoption fees are $50 (which helps to reimburse us for vaccinations and medical care, while in our care)

ADOPTERS ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO PRE-PAY FOR THE PET'S SPAY/NEUTER AT A ROSWELL VET (to be performed before being released to the adopter's home-no exceptions). Make sure to mention that you are adopting a pet from us, so you may receive a discount on the surgery! We take the adopted pet to your vet for the surgery, and you may pick up your new pet from the vet, after the surgery is completed. ADOPTION GUIDELINES:

All dogs must have fenced yards(appropriate for that size dog), and we DO check. All cats adopted must be strickly indoor cats. All pets (even young pups/kits) are spayed or neutered before going into their new home, no exceptions. If you have other dogs, you must bring your other pets to have a meet & greet here at the kennels. We are not funded by any city, county, state, or federal entity. We are totally funded by donations
only. We are always in desperate need of donations to keep us afloat. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP, PLEASE DONATE THROUGH OUR FUNDRZR APP THROUGH FACEBOOK OR ON OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.ROSWELLHUMANE.ORG

We are in need of more Kuranda beds for our resident dogs! These are raised beds that are very sturdy and get the dogs off the cold, hard floor. Please visit this link to purchase one! They will be sent to us to assemble! www.kuranda.com/donate/4406/wishlist

Sanford has been waiting for someone to finally notice him and give him a chance. He came to us shy and frightened and we believe he had a rough life. Because of this, he is a bit shy with people he doesn’t know, but warms up and we feel confident he’d be such a loving and loyal dog. He used to have a neighbor in the next pen over that was a mixed Yorkshire terrier that he just loved. He was very sad when he found a home and left. It’s very difficult to be a black dog in a shelter because they always get overlooked. We know his special person is out there somewhere. Could that be you?

Someone did something really nice for us the other day. As you can see in photo, she donated much needed items. Let’s support her like she’s supporting us by visiting her beautiful store called Sheep Street Silver and Stones located at 3020 N. Main St. for all your jewelry needs. We appreciate her generosity so much!

Meet Meadow! 🐾
Meadow is a beautiful 2-1/2-year-old, spayed female, mixed shepherd who has been with us for 409 days. That is much longer than any dog should have to wait for their forever home. Despite the wait, she remains such a sweet girl.
Meadow is ready to be your loyal companion and deserves to spend her days on real adventures and evenings curled up by your feet. Will you be the one to finally give her the forever home she has been dreaming of?

Sweet Addie is as precious as can be! We found her on a cold day in January walking down the middle of a busy street. Thankfully, she came right to us. We think she’s about ten months old at this point. Addie would make a wonderful companion for an active person or family. She’s very intelligent and learns quickly. Come meet Addie and see for yourself how sweet she is!

Diamond has been adopted!!! This adoption meant so much to us because poor Diamond had a rough life before she came to us and then she waited much longer than any dog should before finally getting noticed. Not only did she finally get noticed, but it was love at first sight for both of them. The connection was definitely there! Congratulations, Diamond! 💎 🩷
