My story

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

Sweet little Yucca is a wallflower who just needs a safe space for her personality to blossom. This girl came to Animal Humane New Mexico from a large-scale hoarding case of over 100 dogs.
She was adopted, but has returned to care after being found as a stray by our partner shelter. Yucca is fearful of new people and situations, which is understandable given her past.
However, as she settles in her silly personality begins to shine! Yucca loves playing with toys and will roll on her back while holding them in her mouth. She has done well with other dogs in the past, and could benefit from going home with another friendly confident dog to show her the ropes.
Because she is so shy, it would be best if your whole family meets with her prior to adoption so she can best be set up for success.
If your home sounds like the perfect spot for Yucca to thrive, come in and meet with her today!
