We here at Sandoval County strive to help our furry friends find happy and loving placements in permanent homes or get them returned home if they are lost. We do all we can to accomadate them while at our facility to include medical treatment, adoption events and foster homes.
Sandoval County Resource Center was founded in Bernalillo, NM in 2020. Our primary goal is to help those dogs that found themselves lost, abandoned, neglected or mistreated and through no fault of their own were without a family and a loving home.
Dogs impounded by Sandoval County are initially taken to a climate-controlled kennel facility located on the Administrative Campus at 1500 Idalia Road in Bernalillo, while cats are placed in feline-specific safe environments. Most pets impounded by Sandoval County are either returned to owner or transferred to an area agency for adoption. In some cases, however, homeless pets are adopted out directly through the Community Services Department. And in all cases where appropriate, the preference is to place impounded pets in temporary foster homes rather than a facility environment.
