Story
By the Gods; say hello to Percy! This handsome demi-dog is still a growing pup, and once he`s fully grown he will be a large sized boy! And because he`s still a young pup, Percy needs his forever family to teach him all the ways it takes to be a great dog! Percy has a lot of wonderful playful energy, and hopes to be in a home that will give him lots of fun exercise, and of course a lot of cuddles once the play is done! The person that gives him his forever home will always be a god in Percy`s eyes, because it takes an incredible person to rescue such a magnificent pup as him! Percy is at our Main Ranch location!Watermelon Mountain Ranch(Across from Cleveland High School)3251 Westphalia Blvd. NE Rio Rancho, NM 87144(505) 221-2359Wed-Sun 11am-4pm (adoptions and tours until 3pm)

Story
Annabeth is a real little goddess on Earth! This wise girl is still a growing pup, and once she`s fully grown, she should be a medium to large sized dog! And because she`s still such a young puppy, Annabeth needs her forever person to teach her all the ways it takes to be a great dog! Annabeth wants a home with a lot of love and a lot of fun, and of course some good puppy snacks! It takes a person with the heart of a warrior to want to adopt a puppy and give them their forever home, and Annabeth is hoping you`re the one ready for this epic quest!

Story
Let`s go, Nino! At close to 27lbs, Nino is a medium sized fluffball full of spunky energy! He loves to go on walks, and loves to be active. He`s hoping his forever home will give him all the mental and physical stimulation he desires! And once the fun tires him out, he hopes to find a spot on the ground next to your feet! He has a soft, fluffy coat that will require grooming on occasion. Nino is not a big fan of being crated/kenneled, so he needs some training to feel comfortable if he has to be in one for traveling. He loves to play with our staff and volunteers, and the other dogs at the ranch; he also enjoys playing with kids! Nino is the epitome of a good boy (or should we say `Nino Bueno`?) and he cannot wait to find his forever home! Nino is at our Main Ranch location!Watermelon Mountain Ranch(Across from Cleveland High School)3251 Westphalia Blvd. NE Rio Rancho, NM 87144(505) 221-2359Wed-Sun 11am-4pm (adoptions and tours until 3pm)

Story
Astro is a pup that's out of this world! He is sweet and friendly with people and loves to run in the park or with you! He loves to sniff around and will love exploring the world by your side! Astro is a deaf dog with special needs and will need a patient and loving family. He has lived successfully with other dogs and children, however, since he is a little timid and sensitive, please bring any children in to meet him before taking him home. Astro would benefit from being in a home with a big yard to run and play in and an owner to help build his confidence when interacting with the outside world. He already knows some tricks and hand signals for "come" "sit" and "shake". Astro is a cuddly, sweet boy that needs a second chance and a loving family. Come meet him, bring the family, and fall in love with this amazing pup!

These pups are in Rio Rancho, New Mexico too!

Story
Jack Jack is a medium sized super high energy doggo that loves to run and play! He is people selective and loves to protect his family. Because he tends to get very attached, he would need a home where someone is there for me 24/7. He prefers females as he is more comfortable with them, so he would need to go slow when meeting males. He is great with other dogs and would love to have a playmate. He also loves to play in water, so a small dog pool is preferred!! He is definitely still a puppy at heart and gets incredibly fast zoomies! He would do best in a home where he can be very active and play as long as he wants! He would also do best in a home with older children and adults since he is very high energy. If you are looking for a hiking buddy, a running buddy or just a very active playmate he would be the perfect fit for you!He can be found at the main ranch location.

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Olivia was a great dog, but last year, during my wife’s pregnancy she became aggressive towards the other dog we have. She is house trained and kennel trained, she is very energetic, and will play a lot. We have a big mancoon cat and she has no issue with her. She needs someone to give her a lots of attention. It’s hard for us to be there for her constantly like she needs or work in some behavioral training for her due to our scheduling with the baby and our other animals.
