The sparkle is returning to my eyes.

Update: Timmy was adopted on October 5th!

Timmy's
spirit was broken so long ago. He probably gave up hope that he would ever feel safe or enjoy a fulfilling life with people who cared for him.

One recent day his owners abandoned him in a parking lot. He succeeded in dodging cars, avoiding being crushed, long enough for an animal control officer to catch him.

Timmy then went to a local shelter. We took him from there to give him the time he needs to begin recovering from many years of neglect and abuse.

Timmy is groomed now, looking and feeling better. But he was all matted knots and filthy tangles -- a mess resulting from years of not being brushed or bathed.

He wants so much to get affection. But he holds back, worried of being hurt again. He's a senior -- 10 years of age -- but it's certainly not too late for Timmy to find love. With stability and trust, his emotional wall will come down.

Timmy is a Yorkshire Terrier mix, neutered, and ready for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.

He is good with other dogs. He needs an adult-only home with a great deal of patience and he needs to avoid all contact with children, to err on the safe side for dog bite prevention. He also needs regular grooming care so that from now on he is clean and feeling good.

Please show Timmy the power of love and help him believe in people again.
