I need you. Will you open your heart to me, please?

Helen is happiest in your arms, showering you with doggie kisses.  She is exceptionally sweet and so grateful for kindness. Helen is a Miniature Poodle mix, 3 years young, spayed, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. We rescued Helen from another shelter and her background is mostly unknown. She is mostly blind, but has very limited vision in both eyes and she can walk without running into walls if she goes slowly and carefully. Please help us find Helen a hero.

I feel like a brand new boy!!

Beep Beep now, ready for adoption Beep Beep on September 6, at the time of rescue Beep Beep was living in squalor and he was the victim of abuse, worrying that his next contact with people was going to be a hit, kick, or scream. We immediately placed him in loving foster care to begin both physical and emotional recovery. Beep Beep's foster mom has done wonders for him.  He likes to cuddle with her and he feels secure in her presence and around other kind women.  Beep Beep is still fearful of men and may bark or even growl at them until he knows they intend him and the women no harm. So, Beep Beep's progress needs to continue in a very patient, experienced home. Beep Beep is a Bichon Frise & Poodle mix, 2 years of age, now neutered and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA. Please plan and budget for regular professional grooming.

I want to belong to someone who will love me dearly.

Eric is a sunny boy with an incredibly sweet temperament and he is ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  At the time of rescue he was roaming a parking lot, lost and confused, consistent with being dumped there to fend for himself.  Eric is a tuxedo Longhair Chihuahua, about 5 years of age, and good with other dogs.  Special thanks to Pet'ographique for this exceptional portrait to help Eric find a loving, forever home.

Our hearts ache for 14-year-old Raven , a well-behaved, gentle soul dumped by her owners when they moved out of state.  They said she is a "good dog, just getting older".  Raven is humble and lovely, but utterly confused by how those she loved could walk away when she needed them most.  Raven is a German Shepherd mix, spayed girl, housetrained, and good with cats and dogs.  We plead for your help in sharing Raven's picture so we can find her a loving home immediately and mend her broken heart.

I believed that no one would ever love me.

Misty Rose is very athletic, so an active lifestyle routine is best for her and we expect her to grow to large size. Please carefully puppy-proof your home and yard for her safety.

I could become your very own prince.
