About Heaven

Heavens to Betsy! Am I cool or what? I'm a sweet, lovable girl known for extreme intelligence, loyalty and agility. I'd love a job... that being...to melt your heart. And who knows, I might herd your socks! I'm a bundle of joy who is highly social, full of energy, and always ready to make new friends. I'm excited to go on walks and good on leash. My radar ears alert me to other dogs and I'm sure I'd like to make friends. So bring your pup along for a meet-and-greet to see if we become fast buddies! I'd love a large yard or fenced ranch so you and I can enjoy my instincts to work. If you're looking for a playful, affectionate companion who will keep you smiling and moving, I might be your perfect match!

With the Sandia Mountains nearby, miles of bosque trails along the Rio Grande, and a pet-friendly community, Albuquerque offers adopted pets a wonderful life full of adventure and sunshine.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

25°F to 50°F

Dec – Feb

Albuquerque winters are mild with light snow that melts quickly and plenty of sunshine. The bosque trails along the Rio Grande are pleasant for winter walks. Nighttime temperatures can drop below freezing, so bring a coat for your pet on early morning outings.

Spring

38°F to 72°F

Mar – May

Spring brings warming temperatures and blooming desert wildflowers. Wind and dust can be an issue in March and April, so keep walks to calmer periods. The Sandia foothills trails are excellent for hiking with your pet as conditions improve.

Summer

Jun – Aug

Hot, dry summers demand shade and water on every outing. The high altitude means stronger UV exposure, so light-skinned pets may need sun protection. Monsoon thunderstorms arrive in July and August, bringing sudden downpours and flash flood risk in arroyos.
