Our team is proud to support DogFest Southwest 2026 as we raise funds for Canine Companions and their incredible mission to provide expertly trained service dogs to adults, children, and veterans with disabilities free of charge.

We love dogs and cherish the human-canine bond, whether through beloved pets or highly skilled service dogs. The impact these dogs make in the lives of people with disabilities is truly life-changing. Their independence, confidence, and joy are made possible because of supporters like you.

We are especially proud of our New Mexico Chapter, which has now helped raise over 150 puppies who have gone on to change lives across the country and we continue to raise more every year!

2025 Highlights:

• ? 7 puppies arrived in NM to begin their journey
• ? 8 puppies matriculated to Professional Training
• ? 2 new teams graduated
• ? 3 NM-raised puppies were matched and graduated with partners out of state
• ? 5 puppies were fostered/transported through NM
• ? 2 NM-raised puppies were selected to become breeders
• ? 4 new Canine Companions Certified Therapy Dogs

And we are already off to an amazing start in 2026!

We’ve welcomed 5 new puppies into NM who will be raised over the next 18 months, joining 5 older puppies currently in training.

If you are able, please consider donating online to help us reach our fundraising goal. You can support our team as a whole or select an individual team member. Every dollar helps place more extraordinary service dogs with the people who need them most.

Thank you for everything you do. You are so appreciated.

Best wishes for a wonderful and successful New Year! ?
