Milo

Image
As hard as it is to see the pain still in Milo's face, he is actually improving a bit more each day and no longer hiding his face. He is very docile and he is slowly but surely beginning to hope again. Milo , 10, a cream tabby, was at another shelter that asked for our help. He had been confiscated from his previous home for cruelty and he was terrified of violence and rage. Milo likes soft-spoken volunteers and staff to pet him and reassure him with tender words. He is starting to show interest in toys too. We look forward to the day when he knows in his heart that he is safe and secure. Please help find a hero for Milo . He is now ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.

She is a pretty blend of breeds (likely including Beagle, Dachshund, and King Charles Spaniel), 4 years of age, good with other dogs, now spayed and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA. At the time of her rescue in January, Penelope was pregnant and she had been abandoned at a veterinary clinic. We placed her in a loving foster home and she soon thereafter gave birth to 5 babies.

A steady lifestyle routine will help him feel secure so he can continue blooming.

Finn

Image
Finn , a super cute junior puppy, needs someone to love.    He is a Corgi & Longhair Chihuahua mix, neutered boy, 10 months of age, good with other dogs, housetrained, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. Finn was at another shelter that asked for our help due to an allegation by his previous owner that he is protective of his toys.

But to err on the safe side an experienced owner is needed who will ensure he is given kind guidance to learn good, well-adjusted behaviors.

Image
Slevin hopes his new owner will love getting licks and kisses! He expresses his gratitude for kindness with great affection and joy. Slevin is an American Bulldog mix, 4 years of age and neutered, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. He is wonderfully friendly and we believe he has the temperament to be exceptional with mature kids. Slevin may be fine with larger dogs (unconfirmed), but cannot be around small animals. We rescued him from another shelter and his background is mostly unknown, except that a police officer confiscated him from his previous home. Slevin deserves to know what a very loving home feels like.
