Pets Of The Week: Meet Sugar And Ryder
Sugar lives up to her sweet name: her ear-to-ear smiles, rear-to-ear full body wags, and charming, silly, sunshine-y personality are irresistible. Española Humane welcomed this pocket-sized 4-lb., 1-year-old shepherd-mix when she was evacuated from the Blue 2 Fire in Ruidoso, and with her trainability, endearing sweetness, and absolute love for other dogs, Española Humane felt she was a perfect candidate for its Paws in the Pen prison training program. After 8 weeks of 24/7 training with her two inmate handlers, Sugar knows her stuff, but she’s also a bit of the class clown, offering the cute comic relief everyone can use on a daily basis. She goes home potty, leash and crate trained with a whole list of cues and basic behaviors. To ensure a successful adoption, Española Humane is providing four free training sessions to adopters (so owners can learn what their dog knows) and an invitation to weekly discounted drop-in classes. Sugar also goes home with a biothane leash and collar, 6 months of heartworm prevention, and she’s spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Apply for Sugar at espanolahumane.org and schedule a meet and greet appointment. Courtesy photo.

The trouble is, a safe haven that is totally immune from troubles, doesn’t exist; so, what happens when significant issues such as depression and suicide find their way into these small towns? More importantly, what is the best way to address these issues?
