About us

Since 1939, the Santa Fe Animal Shelter has been dedicated to its mission: support animals, save lives, spread compassion. We are northern New Mexico’s only open-admission, no-kill shelter. As a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization, we receive nearly all of our funding from private donors in our community and beyond. Santa Fe Animal Shelter focuses on spay/neuter programs to control overpopulation, creative adoption efforts to bring pets to loving families and dozens of programs providing support for marginalized animals. Thanks to a partnership with the City of Santa Fe and the Bureau of Land Management, the main Shelter is housed on a 100-acre campus with hiking trails and plenty of room to walk dogs. Come visit our facilities to see how Santa Fe cares for its animals.  The Shelter is not just a place to adopt an animal or find a missing one but a place to visit over and over again. This is your Shelter, built by our community – a place to find joy with animals. Thanks to our supporters, in 2017 we: * took in 5,063 animals in need. * found new homes for 2,904 animals. * returned 1,195 lost animals to their homes. * gave 179 animals a second chance with our Shelter partners. * sent 626 animals to temporary foster homes. * spayed or neutered 5,661 animals. Our Live Release Rate is currently at 94.2 percent. SFHumaneSociety.org

  • We are proud to announce that we are furthering our assistance with the Las Vegas Animal Care Center. In collaboration with the incredible people at ASPCA, we successfully transferred 38 animals out of SFAS to make room for 25 animals from Las Vegas. This effort ensures that animals affected by recent crises receive the care and support they desperately need!

    HAPPENING NOW ❗ New Mexico Emergency Response At the urgent request of the Santa Fe Animal Shelter and Helping Paws Across Borders, the ASPCA disaster response team evacuated 40 homeless dogs from local shelters to free up critical space and resources for animals displaced by wildfires and burn scar flooding in New Mexico. The shelter dogs were transported to an emergency facility operated by the ASPCA outside of the disaster zone and will receive ongoing care by ASPCA medical, behavior, and shelter professionals until they can be made available for adoption! Please make a lifesaving donation today to help us remain prepared for emergency situations like this and reach more animals in need across the country at a moment's notice. Your gift — no matter how big or small — helps save lives. ❤️ aspca.org/NMtransport

    Happy Labor Day from Santa Fe Animal Shelter! As we honor the hard work and dedication of all, let's not forget our furry friends who bring so much joy to our lives. Meet our longtimers: Champ, Rory, Chico, Luigi, Christopher, Blue, and Luke (from top left to bottom right), who have collectively been in our care for over 1,000 days! Today, let's celebrate the love, loyalty, and companionship our animal friends provide. Consider spending this Labor Day exploring our shelter to find your perfect match. Give a shelter pet the gift of a loving home this holiday. Our kennels are full, and we need your help to create space for more animals in need! If you can't adopt, consider giving a longtimer a break from shelter life by becoming a temporary foster. Email NewHope@SFHumaneSociety.org and give the gift of hope! #LaborDayLove #AdoptDontShop #AnimalShelterHeroes
