Your kindnessFor approved adopters
Congratulations on your approved adoption! Choose the fee confirmed by your LDRNM representative. Adoption fees are payments for an adoption and are not tax-deductible donations.
Cat adoption fee: $150. Ask your LDRNM representative for the payment instructions for your approved cat adoption. Sponsored or waived fees follow your confirmed arrangement.
Want to help the next rescue dog, too? Complete the adoption fee first, then make a separate gift so your receipt and our records stay clear.
Make an Additional DonationGive a dog a head start
An individual, family, business, or organization can cover all or part of a dog's adoption fee. Your gift remains a charitable donation to LDRNM; the approved adopter does not pay the sponsored portion.

Simple, secure giving
Choose a one-time gift or make your kindness last all year. Pay with PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, or a debit or credit card where available.

Your unrestricted gift allows LDRNM to direct support where it is needed most—including medical care for senior and special-needs dogs.
Tax-smart generosity
Some giving methods may offer tax advantages while putting more resources to work for New Mexico's small dogs. Your financial or tax adviser can help determine what is right for you.
If you are age 70½ or older, a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) sent directly from an eligible IRA may be excluded from taxable income and may count toward your required minimum distribution.
For 2026, the federal QCD limit is $111,000 per eligible individual. A QCD is not also claimed as a charitable deduction.A direct gift of qualifying appreciated stock or other property may offer advantages compared with selling the asset first, depending on your circumstances and the type of property.
