Chihuahua Appreciation Week at Nevada SPCA

Regarded as sacred and mystical in pre-Columbian Indian nations (according to Wikipedia), Chihuahuas are one of the oldest dog breeds, and we agree that they often have magical, wondrous personalities.

To encourage people to consider these little gems with big personalities, we are celebrating Chihuahua Appreciation Week at Nevada SPCA and offering 50% off adoption fees for all Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes.

T-Rex (pictured here), a fun-loving 5-year old, and 64 other rescued dogs qualify for this adoption special. Each is spayed/neutered, up-to-date on major vaccines, and micro-chipped with an ID. In addition, they go home with packets of free food and a complimentary veterinary check-up, and more.

Chihuahua Appreciation Week at Nevada SPCA begins at 11am Monday morning on September 20th and lasts through 5pm Saturday on September 25th.

This breed seems to be particularly devastated by the ongoing economic and home foreclosure crisis. This is the most Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes -- 65 -- we have ever had at one time at Nevada SPCA.

Please join us and provide a forever home to a rescued animal in exchange for unconditional love.

Twinkie is the tiniest of dogs -- only 3 pounds! -- but he has enormous unconditional love to share with you.  He is a super cute, super sweet Yorkshire Terrier, neutered boy, 10 years of age, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Another shelter asked us to rescue Twinkie because of his dental needs.  We had his teeth cleaned and he is now ready for a forever home.  An experienced home is required for his safety due to his exceptionally small size.

Anna Beanie Little Eric Michelle Nicholas Sisters Anna and Michelle , and their brothers Beanie , Little Eric , and Nicholas , are very affectionate babies who love giving you kisses. We rescued their pregnant mother, a Cocker Spaniel named Mary Poppins from a government-funded shelter.  She had reportedly been bred with a Scottish Terrier.  We placed Mary Poppins in a loving foster home and she gave birth to these five angels and raised them there. Mary Poppins is going to be adopted by her foster family.  Her puppies are now 3 months of age, spayed/neutered, and ready for adoption. Please carefully puppy-proof your home and yard for their safety and protection.

Update 2: Jellybean was adopted on November 11th! Update: Licorice was adopted on November 9th! Licorice and Jellybean , brother and sister, are nicknamed " The Sweet Candy Puppies " due to their affectionate, adorable temperaments. They are most likely Retriever mixes and may grow to medium or large size. They are spayed/neutered, approximately 3 months of age, and they debut for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. The Sweet Candy Puppies were rescued after being found abandoned on the streets. Jellybean was injured with a hairline fracture in her right rear leg. We had her leg treated and it had been bandaged and she was resting for nearly a month. She recovered beautifully. Licorice and Jellybean can be adopted separately, but please consider adopting them together for lifelong love and companionship. They are terrific together!
