"The Public Safety and Humane Implications of Persistently Tethering Domestic Dogs" — the collaborative report to the New Mexico Legislature produced by the NM Department of Public Safety and Animal Protection of New Mexico — reached a vast audience in the March/April 2009 issue of All Animals magazine.
The flagship publication of The Humane Society of the United States, All Animals reaches close to 500,000 animal advocates. Animal Protection of New Mexico is proud to be included in the article, "There Ought to be a Law…..and Here's How to Get One Passed." (PDF)

If you would like to help out at one of Albuquerque’s most popular annual events, (or even be the coordinator of this outreach table), please get in touch with us.
