Before & after pictures of Blossom, a young Maltese debuting for adoption.

Blossom, debuting for adoption on July 31

Blossom, minutes after her rescue on July 27
A man found this petite, horrifically matted dog in Las Vegas near the I-95 freeway.  He assumed she was diseased, could barely tell her back from her front, and brought her to us for emergency care.

Not only did her knotted coat block her eyesight, but she had similar obstacles to eating and going to the bathroom.  It would have been difficult for her to have survived much longer.

One of our volunteers, Marlene, scooped her up and held her close despite all of the dirt and insects, and told her "You are safe now" and "Blossom is your new name".

Now spayed and groomed, Blossom is a tiny, adorable angel, unrecognizable from the day of her rescue.  She is a Maltese, 2 years of age, triumphantly debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.

Blossom loves being held and reassured.  She soaks up all of the compliments and affection, and then asks for much more.

She is good with other dogs and needs regular professional grooming so that she keeps feeling her best.

Please help us find Blossom a home where she is never again failed.  She will need patience and kind guidance to learn to adjust to living predominantly indoors, including housetraining.

Other dogs rescued this summer were similarly suffering from extreme neglect, including Darian, Flora, and Marie & Mark.

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!
