Story

Formerly feral reservation dog Mountain Spirit is our ambassador, because like AnimalVillageNM, he has met every challenge he's faced, overcoming all fears, to have the life he deserved all along. As a feral, sick, starving, injured reservation dog who had never been inside a home,  Spirit experienced everything homeless, neglected, abused dogs experience. Today, 3 years after his rescue- he is weeks away from his service dog certification, enjoys frequent puppacinos at Starbucks, knows the difference between a Bark Box and other deliveries, and is a beloved inside family member. Spirit, who had never been touched by humans at age 3- has now helped us to transport many death-row pets to other states, deliver pet food all over New Mexico to food banks, and has greeted hundreds of supporters at spay-neuter and fundraising events. 

We're celebrating his birthday and using the inspiration of his very SPIRIT, which inspires us through fundraising difficulties every day- by asking you to SUPPORT us in helping less fortunate cats and dogs who are still in terrible need. Since 2007, our PAW program has subsidized more than 10,000 spay-neuter surgeries in Lincoln and Otero counties in New Mexico- one of the poorest states in America, with one of the **highest pet abandonment rates per capita in the country. Now, our low-cost spay-neuter, pet food bank, and rescue transport programs are all in danger, due to donation shortages. 

THE TIMING OF THIS FUNDRAISER IS CRITICAL- We are currently figuring out what programs can continue, and in what numbers. PLEASE DONATE NOW.

PLEASE be inspired by both Spirit's bravery, and our commitment to his life and thousands of other cats and dogs! HELP us to keep provide low-income guardians affordable SPAY and NEUTER to prevent more litters born to suffer!  HELP us FEED hungry pets by stocking area food *banks with pet food! HELP us TRANSPORT abandoned dogs and cats from death-row and TRANSPORT them from euthanasia lists, to NO-KILL SHELTERS with loving homes waiting! HELP us to FREE them, to have the kind of homes that Mountain Spirit has now! Become a monthly or one-time sponsor, in any amount you can- NOW. We appreciate any amount at all, so very much, at AnimalVillageNM.org.

AnimalVillageNM is a non-profit 501c3, EIN #27-4461260. Donations are tax deductible. 

*Food bank employees tell us that more than 80% of their recipients also need pet food.
