The winner of this year’s Dog Jog logo contest is Gracie Nichols, one of our youngest winners ever. This talented Pinon fourth grader produced a clever and imaginative drawing showing a free-spirited dog enjoying nature and the great outdoors. Her drawing will be the official logo for this year’s Dog Jog event and she will receive a free t-shirt featuring her artwork. The winners are chosen on the basis of artistic merit, creativity and originality.
The other young artists recognized this year include our 2nd place winner, 3rd-grader Miller Gauss, and 3rd place for Clara Nichols and 4th place for Riley Stark. Honorable mentions go to entries from Heather Gauss, Aurora Matzke-Rubio, Hudson Ayers, and Liesl Whitton, all talented 3 graders. We want to thank all of our young artists for their talent and enthusiasm. We encourage the younger artists to enter again in future years.

The 2025 Los Alamos Dog Jog will be held on Saturday, April 26th at 9 a.m. at Rover Park in White Rock. For more information, visit our website www.lafos.org. We hope to see you there. To save $5, pre-register by Sunday April 6 – send your registration form and payment to Dog Jog Registrar at 155 Monte Rey S., Los Alamos, NM 87547.

Dogs, of course, not only get to participate for free, they get a special doggie prize at the finish line. The 2025 Dog Jog offers both a timed 5K course and a non-competitive 2- mile walk. And we will be holding to our very fun post-race prize ceremony. We will have prizes for fastest doggie finishers and for cutest ears, best wag, and many other fine doggie characteristics.

You can get entry forms at Pet Pangaea and Ridgeview Veterinary Hospital or download one at www.lafos.org. And we will have day-of registration starting at 8:10 a.m. at Rover Park. All participants will get a t-shirt with Gracie’s fun and engaging design!

Tails are wagging all over Los Alamos in anticipation of the 2025 Los Alamos Dog Jog, to be held Saturday, April 26th. The Dog Jog is an annual fundraiser for the Friends of Shelter and Companion Animals, an all-volunteer organization that uses this money to provide funding for spay/neuter programs and veterinary care for ill and injured dogs and cats whose owners cannot afford expensive care for their beloved pets.

The Dog Jog Committee is calling on all creative young artists to put your imaginations and love of dogs to work by submitting a drawing for the 2025 Dog Jog Logo Contest! The Logo Contest is open to youngsters in third through sixth grades whose family lives or works in Los Alamos County. The winning design will be used as the official 2025 Los Alamos Dog Jog logo and will be placed on event t-shirts and other official event materials. The Logo Contest winner will also receive one free t-shirt. The contest entry form and guidelines can be found at Pet Pangaea and online at www.lafos.org. We have extended the deadline for the logo entry until Monday March 10, 2025 at 5:00 p.m. If you have more questions about the Dog Jog, call 505-660-1648.

Here is a picture of last year’s winning design.

ZOEY—UPDATE

Zoey was born in early May 2024. She’s a beautiful black, short-haired older kitten with the most velvety fur. She’s a loving, snuggly girl who wants attention and laps, but she also really loves to play with toys and her siblings and race around the house like a wild thing. She’s very curious and makes the cutest trills while she’s running around. Zoey loves being on your shoulders and lap. She will soak up all the attention she can get. She can get over-excited and play too rough occasionally, but she’s gotten lots better about that as she has gotten older. Zoey would do best in a home without young children and with experienced cat owners. She can be shy when you first meet her, but it doesn’t last very long.

Zoey is spayed and microchipped, and she has all of her vaccinations for the first year.

If you interested in adopting Zoey, the adoption fee is $35. Call Mary at 505-470-6973 for more info, an adoption application, and to meet Zoey.

HENRY—UPDATE

Henry was born in late April 2024. He’s a little older and less wild than his younger foster siblings, but he’s still curious and playful. Henry is choosy about his people; if he chooses you, he will be a great companion. Henry loves to play, especially with crinkle balls. He likes to explore the house and look for new things to investigate and play with, but he also likes to sit on your legs or lap and keep you company. He frequently runs up to you to greet your and demand a pet. He is a bit more reserved and cautious with new people and situations than his siblings, but he really likes the people he chooses. Henry is timid of high energy people and environments, so he'll do best in a home with quiet adults and older children and would do well with a pet friend if introduced properly.

Henry is neutered and microchipped and has all of vaccinations for the first year.

If you interested in adopting Henry, the adoption fee is $35. Call Mary at �505-470-6973 for more info, an adoption application, and to meet Henry.

BUNNY—UPDATE

Bunny was born in late May 2024 and so is an older kitten. Bunny is a real charmer! She’s confident, even fearless, and is sure that anyone she meets will be her friend. She’s petite, a dilute (pale) calico, and has super-soft bunny fur. Bunny has a big personality. She’s cuddly, curious, and playful, but she’s also adventurous and silly. Bunny has a squeaky little voice and likes to make “comments” when she is exploring and running around and will even talk to you about her day. She will also squawk to argue with you if you won’t let her do what she wants at times. She has no fear of her big brothers (or anything else it seems) and will start a wrestle-match with them for the fun of it, even though they’re lots bigger than her. When she’s not playing or racing, she loves to sit on a convenient lap or shoulders and show how much she loves you by giving you big, sloppy dog kisses (she’s a licker!). Bunny would not do well as an only cat because she’s used to having her foster siblings around. She will need a pet friend to keep her busy and happy.

Bunny is spayed and microchipped, and she has all of her vaccinations.

If you are interested in adopting Bunny, the adoption fee is $35. Call Mary at 505-470-6973 for more info, an adoption application, and to meet Bunny.

Nalan is looking for a home!

For medical reasons my owner can’t take care of me so I’m looking for a new home. I am friendly, outgoing, playful, intelligent, and affectionate. I have some herding tendencies and like a lot of exercise and play. I love to learn and respond well to training.

I am about 11 months old and am a mixed breed (probably some combo of collie, lab and heeler) and weigh 44lbs.

Please call 505-603-1186 if you would like to meet me or find out more about me. My owner is also moving so if I don’t have a new home by Dec 2 I will be at the Los Alamos Animal Shelter.

BUNNY!

Bunny was born in late May 2024. She’s petite and has super-soft bunny fur. Bunny is a dilute calico and has the big personality to go with it. She’s cuddly, curious, and playful, but she’s also adventurous and silly. Bunny has a squeaky little voice and likes to make “comments” when she is exploring and running around. She has no fear of her big brothers and will tackle and wrestle with them for the fun of it even though they’re lots bigger than her. When she’s not playing or racing, she loves to sit on her foster mom’s lap or shoulders and lick her face and ear. Bunny can be shy when you first meet her because she hasn’t gotten to meet a lot of new people, but it doesn’t last very long. She would do best with gentle older children (not toddlers), calm adults, and a calmer household. She would do best do best if she were adopted with one of her siblings, like Henry, to keep her company.

Bunny is spayed and microchipped, and she has all of her vaccinations for the first year.

If you are interested in adopting Bunny, the adoption fee is $35. Call Mary at 505-470-6973 for more info, an adoption application, and to meet Bunny.

HENRY!

Henry was born in late April 2024. He’s a little older and less wild than his younger foster siblings, but he’s still pretty kitten curious and playful. Henry loves to play with toys, especially crinkle balls. He likes to explore the house and look for new things to investigate and play with, but he also likes to sit on peoples legs or lap and keep them company. Sometimes, he likes to just sit off to the side of whatever is going on and watch. When he’s not competing with his 7 foster siblings for attention, he will probably be even more snuggly. He is a bit more reserved and cautious than his siblings, but he likes to keep company with people. He can be shy when you first meet him because he hasn’t gotten to meet a lot of new people. It usually doesn’t last very long. Henry is intimidated by high energy people and homes, so he'll do best in a home with quiet adults and older children.

Henry is neutered and microchipped and has all of vaccinations for the first year.

If you interested in adopting Henry, the adoption fee is $35. Call Mary at �505-470-6973 for more info, an adoption application, and to meet Henry.

If you interested in adopting Henry, the adoption fee is $35 for Henry or $50 for both Henry and Zoey. Call Mary at 505-470-6973 for more info, an adoption application, and to meet Henry.
