Emergency Food Bank

In order to help needy pet owners retain their pets, we offer an emergency pet food bank that is available to low income pet owners who provide evidence that their animals are spayed/neutered. If they are first time recipients of our pet food bank, we will provide food without a certificate of spay/neuter. However, they are required to spay/neuter a pet in order to receive a second donation of pet food. Discount pet spay/neuter coupons can be obtained by calling Robyn at 575-546-9711. Pet food is available on a first come, first served basis and is given out in quantities available. Donations from WALMART & GENERAL DOLLAR as well as generous donors provide the pet food that we distribute. Nearly 14,000 pounds of pet food were distributed in 2020. The Pet Food Bank hours are limited to WEDNESDAY 10 am to 1 pm

"I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self contained;

I stand and look at them long and long.

They do not sweat and whine about their condition;

They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins;

They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God;

Not one is dissatisfied-not one is demented with the mania of owning things;

Not one kneels to another, nor his kind that lived thousands of years ago;

Not one is responsible or industrious over the whole earth."
― Walt Whitman
