Deming Animal Shelter

The Deming Animal Guardians Sunshine Haven Intake Project, or DAGSHIP for short, started construction and opened its doors in 2017. Since that time, Mike and Lisa have put in countless hours to build a cutting-edge center for animal rescue.

We have indoor kennels, an adoption program, and a thrift store at the Village of Santa Clara Animal Shelter, which is located at the former fire department facility.

A 501(c)3 nonprofit No Kill Sanctuary that provides blind, deaf, and special needs puppies with lifelong care.

Through facility care, adoption, community education, and programs that address pet overpopulation, the High Desert Humane Society works to promote and provide humane and ethical treatment of companion animals.

The High Desert Animal Shelter's current location is at 3050 S. In 1998, Cougar Way in Silver City, New Mexico, 88061, was finished. The total amount of living area for all the animals under our care is about 3,000 square feet. There are separate areas set aside for stray animals, animals in quarantine, and adoptable dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens. There are adjacent outdoor dog runs, as well as an outdoor cat run and an outdoor puppy run. A pet incinerator and a pet memorial garden are also on the property.

Each year, shelters put down thousands of animals. By having our devoted companion animals spayed or neutered, we can lower the number of animals put to death.
