Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

You may recall Joanie from earlier this year, a deaf young mother and her 5 newborns found abandoned in a vacated house.  Joanie , a small Border Collie and Cocker Spaniel mix, 2 years of age, is now spayed and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Her babies are doing beautifully and will remain in a loving foster home until they are ready for their spay/neuter surgeries.  Joanie is exceptionally kind and humble.  Please use consistent hand signals and other body language to communicate with her, as well as take thorough safety precautions for her throughout your home and yard.  Please share this angel's pictures to help her find a forever home.

Update: Big Bob was adopted on October 21st! A rustic, very cheerful boy, Big Bob's smile will warm your soul. He is a Rottweiler, neutered male, about 7 years of age, debuting for adoption today. We rescued Big Bob from another shelter, so we do not have much background information on him. He is knowledgeable with basic training commands and he is eager to please. Big Bob has special needs due to his diminished hearing. We believe this is a new condition because he is struggling to adjust to it. (For example, he gets anxious if you sneak up on him.) An experienced home is needed to help him adjust to his hearing loss. Please teach him some basic hand signals for good communication and help him regain self-assurance and confidence. Rottweiler knowledge and/or experience is required for Big Bob's adoption.

Update: Ginger Ann was adopted on February 27th! Ginger Ann is a spunky, gorgeous young girl ready for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. She is a Bull Terrier, spayed, approximately 3 years young. Ginger Ann needs an experienced owner due to her athleticism and hearing impairment. Ginger Ann's hearing is clearly diminished, but she seems able to hear some sounds. Learning and teaching her consistent hand signals will help you communicate with her and keep her safe. An energetic girl, Ginger Ann will benefit from basic dog obedience training. Please only consider her for adoption if you are willing and able to have this training provided for her. Bull Terrier or other Bully breed knowledge and/or experience is preferred for her adoption.
