My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meg has lots of enduring expressions and loves to go on excursions. She is well-behaved and relaxed in situations she has been in - parks, rivers, hikes, big stores running errands, pets stores - you name it; she is a champ. Every once in a while, she gets the Zoomies for about 2 minutes in the yard, then calms down. She gallops like a horse and pounces on a ball like a fox. Meg is about 1yr old and came under PACA's wing when her owner relinquished her to our vet. She was not treated with kindness before, but now she is flourishing and has love in her heart. She loves, loves, loves other dogs. Meg likes kids, adults and other dogs at adoption events. She is a large dog weighs about 75 pounds.

We have adoption clinic on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month from 11a-2pm at 6300 San Mateo (along the grass next to Academy Rd) in the southern end of the Spouts Market parking lot volunteer staffing/weather permitting.

We can also make arrangements for a Private Meet-and-Greet with the foster parent and your household with approved applications. You can complete and easy online application here:

More about this rescue

People’s Anti Cruelty Association / Albuquerque Animal Rescue (PACA), a No-Kill rescue group, was founded in 1973. Our main mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehouse homeless dogs and cats. PACA has no shelter facility and relies on an organized network of foster parents who graciously take animals into their homes and hearts until permanent homes are found.
