The Marshmallow Puppies

Cupid and Domino
Bruiser and Sheila
Update: Cupid, Domino, and Sheila were adopted on February 18th!

With personalities so sugary-sweet and soft, we just had to nickname these darling babies "The Marshmallow Puppies".

Their story is a triumph on many levels.  We rescued them shortly before Christmas from one of the filthiest, dirtiest crates we have ever seen.  They were stuffed inside with both their mom and dad.   It was clear all 6 had been existing in the crate for weeks.  

(Note: Their father, Sherman, a Poodle mix, was featured on this site previously and you can read his profile by doing a search at top left).

Their mom, Lilly (a small Spaniel mix), and the puppies lived in a cozy section of a Nevada SPCA staff office for extra attention and monitoring.  Their dad was neutered and adopted in early January.

When Lilly reached 9 weeks she was separated from her puppies and spayed.  The wonderful couple who adopted Sherman, and who volunteer regularly at Nevada SPCA, adopted Lilly too, and both are doing extremely well.

Now the babies have been spayed/neutered, they are 3 months of age and they are ready for adoption too.

Brothers Cupid and Domino most resemble their mom.  Bruiser, who had been the "runt" of the litter but is flourishing now, and sister Sheila most resemble their dad.

They can be adopted separately, but the puppies are so great together we give preference to adopting them in pairs for lifelong companionship.

Please ask for The Marshmallow Puppies by name when you visit.

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.

Eliza & Hamilton Taylor If you can foster, please visit Nevada SPCA in person before 5pm and ask for Lauren. Many are eating on their own, while others are just beginning to learn to eat on their own. Taylor , a Maine Coon mix, 10 weeks of age, was found crying alone under a home. Eliza and Hamilton , lilac point shorthairs, 5 weeks of age, were found in a backyard and their mother had vanished. Thank you very much to those of you who share these very important posts to find foster heroes!
