I am like a Teddy Bear who has come to life.


 Update: Jake was adopted on November 26th!

Pet'ographique, a professional portrait studio in Henderson, donated their time and talent to help us showcase Jake, a boy whose magic is revealed upon closer inspection.

As with other "big black dogs" -- who nation-wide have the most difficulty in shelters and rescue programs -- it is important we do all we can to encourage people to give him a second look so that an adoption decision can be made on his personality, instead of his size or age or coloring.

And what a personality he has!  Jake is full of life, very charming and loyal, easy-going, and eager to please you.

He is a tuxedo Retriever mix, neutered male, about 6 years of age.  He has been with us since September awaiting adoption, but he keeps getting mistakenly overlooked.

Jake is good with other dogs and reportedly housetrained.  We rescued him from another shelter, where he was placed when his previous family had financial hardship.

Please look at his smiles in the portraits above and remember this joyful boy will greet you with enormous cheer every day when you come home.

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!
