Mac

Image
Mac's toys are no match for his acrobatic and stalking skills!  He's just a baby, not even 4 months of age, with impressive agility and determination.  Mac has been lovingly raised and socialized in a foster home with other cats since his rescue.  He is now 4 months of age, neutered, and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  Please kitten-proof your home for his safety.

10 babies just rescued.

Image
10 babies -- 16 days old, 5 girls and 5 boys -- are now safe and being placed in foster homes this afternoon for bottle-feeding and other nurturing care. We rescued the puppies from another shelter that asked for our help. Their mother, a Bully mix, was reportedly confiscated from a backyard breeder. Her previous owner was allowed by authorities there to reclaim her, but only after she was spayed to ensure she never breeds again. The authorities refused to let the mother's previous owner have the puppies and instead directed the babies to our rescue program for foster care and then adoption placement in responsible, lifelong homes. We have foster homes for all 10 lined up for tonight, but some can only help short-term, so if you are interested in helping as a foster parent to help nurture and socialize them through the whole summer, please visit Nevada SPCA in person and ask for DJ. Bottle milk and other supplies for our Amazon Wish List is another

Amethyst and many more need foster heroes.

Image
6 more motherless kittens, including Amethyst , have been rescued in the past 2 hours.    There are now 23 motherless kittens who need foster heroes please! Amethyst and her siblings were found in a cooling/heating machine. If you can help, please visit Nevada SPCA in person and ask for Lauren. Thank you!

Winston

Image
Winston's favorite things include playing with other dogs and enjoying carrots and other veggies for snacks.  He is an adorable Maltese, 6 years of age, now neutered and debuting for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  Winston is good with cats too.  He needed us when his previous owner passed away.

Timmy

Image
Timmy , a cute junior pup with robust spirit, loves to have fun and try new experiences.  He is a Wheaten Terrier mix, 10 months of age, now neutered and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Timmy can be around other dogs, but needs to be fed meals and treats separately.   He was found abandoned on a family's porch with no sign of responsible ownership (no ID tag, no microchip ID, not neutered).

Maxmillian

Image
Maxmillian , 9, is a jolly boy asking for a hero and a leisurely lifestyle.  Due to birth defects with his front paws, he can only walk short distances.  Maxmillian needed us when his previous owner passed away.  He is a Basset Hound & Beagle mix, housetrained & crate-trained, good with cats & dogs & kids, neutered, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Maxmillian's toys must be large and indestructible (because he reportedly tries to eat and swallow them).  Please help find someone wonderful for him!

Woody and Jessie and three siblings just saved.

Image
Just rescued and needing foster care please! Woody and Jessie were just found in a parking lot with three more siblings, all crammed into a tiny crate without water, abandoned in the direct sunlight. All five were panting and in heat distress. The staff and volunteers cooled them down carefully and all five survived. We would like to place them in a loving foster home for about three weeks to rebuild strength before they are spayed/neutered and ready for adoption.    If you can help them, or any of the other 15 motherless kittens rescued today, please visit Nevada SPCA in person and ask for Lauren.

Peaches & Honey

Image
Peaches & Honey , lively young sisters, Yorkshire Terrier mixes, have enormous loving potential.  They are 3 years of age, good with other dogs, housetrained, spayed, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  We rescued the girls from another shelter to reunite them and keep them together forever.  Both are timid and afraid of leashes, so an experienced home is needed to help them continuing building confidence and self-esteem.

Bebe

Image
Bebe is a jolly girl and it is easy to fall in love with her. She is a wonderfully friendly Australian Shepherd, 4 years of age and spayed, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. A woman spotted Bebe , in neglected condition, abandoned on a desert road and captured her. Bebe's microchip traced back to a previous owner, who refused her. Bebe is good with medium-size and large-size dogs. But it appears she cannot be around small dogs or other small animals.

Calypso

Image
Calypso enjoys sharing his kind spirit with nice people and friendly dogs.  He is a super cute Dachshund and Terrier mix (only weighing 9 pounds), neutered boy, 7 years of age, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Calypso was at another shelter that asked for our help due to a severe eye infection. He is being treated and improving well.  Please visit and ask for Calypso by name.

Image
Alejandro captivates with expressive eyes and happy-go-lucky charm.  He is a Toy & Terrier mix, 1 year of age, neutered boy, good with other dogs, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Alejandro was at another shelter that asked for our help due to a birth defect on the sheath of his penis. We had surgery provided for him (forging a sheath) and he is healing well.  Please visit and ask for Alejandro by name.

Magoo

Image
Magoo is a gleaming young boy with an affectionate nature and ethereal eyes.  He debuts for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. Magoo is a Siberian Husky mix, perhaps with Australian Shepherd, 3 years of age and neutered, housetrained, and good with some dogs.    He may have some level of separation anxiety (fearing every goodbye is forever), so we strongly recommend crate-training when he is home alone.    We rescued Magoo from another shelter that asked for our help.    Please visit and ask for him by name.

Buggy loves hugs and kisses!  His previous owner (who surrendered him due to financial hardship) calls him a 77-pound "cupcake" of a sweetheart.

Valentine , a puppy found abandoned and perilously ill, has made a beautiful recovery and triumphantly debuts for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.    She is bursting with energy and enthusiasm for her new life! Valentine is a playful German Shepherd, 8 months of age, and now spayed.    Thank you very much to the donors to our advanced care fund who helped make her emergency veterinary care possible.    We believe Valentine is compatible with kids and some dogs, though she may be too rambunctious and excitable for small children.

Dozens of fragile lives need nurturing foster care please.

Image
Fred and George and 29 more rescued motherless kittens need loving foster homes for nurturing care and socialization. Also today, a mother cat and her 6 newborns were rescued and need foster care too. We expect many more kittens to be rescued tomorrow too. Please help by sharing the post or visiting Nevada SPCA in person. The foster commitments range from 2 weeks to 3 months, depending on which ones you can help. Fred and George are brothers, 3 weeks of age, found alone outdoors without their mother. They need bottle-feeding and at the earliest stages of learning to eat on their own.

Pete , his wounds now healed, is ready to let the world know what a happy and loving boy he can be! Pete is a jovial youngster with a terrific smile, an American Bulldog & Bully mix, 1 year of age, now neutered and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.    He was found injured on the streets with wounds consistent from dog or coyote bites.    We believe Pete is crate-trained and may be compatible with some dogs.

Tommy

Image
Tommy is beginning to shine as he realizes that days of neglect and cruelty are over.  He is a young Shih-Tzu, 2 years of age, good with other dogs, now neutered and debuting for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  Tommy was found in poor, matted condition on the streets with no sign of responsible ownership.  He is fussy about leashes and worries about strangers. Tommy needs a gentle, stable home where his progress with trust can continue.

Alissa

Image
Alissa wants to devote herself to loving someone she can always count on, forever. She is a stunning, young Caucasian Ovcharka (aka Russian Mountain Dog, Russian Shepherd Dog), 18 months of age, spayed, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. Alissa is very tall and weighs 82 pounds, which is substantially smaller than most of her breed. Her previous owner said she was "the runt" of the litter. Sadly and needlessly, both of her ears have been completely cut off. Alissa likes playing ball. She is bashful with new people and strangers cannot lunge at her. We tested Alissa with another large and friendly dog, who she accepted well without any challenge. She is housetrained (with doggie door and/or ample opportunities to get outdoors). Alissa was surrendered by her previous owners who said she needed more attention than they could provide. Due to Alissa's size and strength, we are seeking an owner experienced

Hazel

Image
Hazel , so surprised she is getting attention, glows as she realizes that the cruel days are over.    She is a gorgeous Border Collie mix, 4 years of age, spayed, good with other dogs, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. Hazel's previous owners reportedly denied her of love, socialization, and indoor access in a heartbreaking attempt to make her "a guard dog". This treatment caused her to become severely withdrawn and sullen, resulting in her abandonment at another shelter. Hazel is starved for kindness and praise. She is timid with new people, but bursts into the warmest smiles when she knows people are happy with her.    Please help find someone wonderful for Hazel !
