"The Boston Puppies" need a foster hero.

Image
"The Boston Puppies" -- Tracy and her brothers DeCarlo , Ga ry , and Tom -- need a foster parent please for approximately 5 weeks.    If you can help, please visit Nevada SPCA in person and ask for DJ. The babies have been in two loving foster homes already since their rescue. They are affectionate and playful, and enjoy playing with cats. They are about 7 weeks of age. Their mother, Barbie , also rescued, is a Boston Terrier & Chihuahua mix. Their teeth are hurting her and she no longer wants to be around them. ( Barbie will be spayed soon and ready for adoption.) We are hoping for a foster home where all four can remain together for continuing socialization, or at least fostered in pairs of two so that each has a sibling companion at all times. Thank you.

Betty , a well-socialized kitten, 6 months of age, is ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  Her favorite activities include climbing cat trees, snuggling with people, and bonding with cats and dogs.  Betty (and her sister Barbie , also ready for adoption) have been lovingly raised and socialized in a foster home since their rescue. Please kitten-proof your home for her safety.  We also ask that you please consider adopting Barbie so the sisters have lifetime companionship.

Will my broken heart ever mend?

Update: Barbie was adopted on December 24th! Barbie was abandoned by her previous owners and then rescued by neighbors who realized she had been left behind. They found her in a state of severe depression.  She is steadily recovering, though anxious about what has happened to her. Barbie is a very gentle, social girl, humble and unassuming.  She just wants to be included, to belong, and isolation is what brought her despair. We think she will do best in a home with another dog and/or with people who are frequently home. Barbie is a lovely Labrador Retriever mix, medium size, spayed female, about 6 years of age.  She is reportedly housetrained and great with kids of all ages.
