Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

Jericho Penn Porgy Sylvia Toby Ty We rescued these six Chihuahuas yesterday from another shelter. This is the most difficult time of year for animals (fireworks, extreme heat, motherless newborns, pregnant animals, vacations, more), so the shelters and rescue organizations are in overdrive helping each other.  Jericho , Penn , Porgy , Sylvia , Toby , and Ty have widely varying personalities, but all have loving natures and long for the stability of a responsible forever home. All six debut for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. Jericho , neutered boy, 2 years young, sporty & fun-loving, good with other dogs. Penn , neutered boy, 1 year young, 6-pound cutie, good with other dogs. Porgy , neutered boy, 3 years young, cheery & radiant, good with other dogs. Sylvia , spayed girl, 5 years of age, tender-hearted and humble, good with other dogs. Toby , neutered boy, 3 years young, affectionate and calm-natured, good with other dogs. Ty ...

A teacher heroically rescued Sylvia from an abusive home after hearing from one of her students that a family member was kicking their pregnant dog.  We placed Sylvia in a nurturing foster home where she gave birth to 3 babies, and all survived.  (Sylvia's puppies will remain in foster care until they are old enough to be spayed/neutered.)  Sylvia is a remarkably sweet Toy Fox Terrier & Chihuahua mix, 2 years of age, now spayed and debuting for adoption at Nevada SPCA. Sylvia is learning that humans can be kind and she is healing well emotionally.  She must see only the best of human nature from now on.  Please help us find Sylvia a wonderful, stable, forever home.
