Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

L'il Bit Blue Chewy Downs L'il Bit and her three brothers -- Blue , Chewy , and Downs -- are adorable babies raised and socialized in a wonderful foster home since their rescue.    They are now 3 months of age, spayed/neutered, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA . The babies like cuddling with each other, people, and stuffed animal toys.    Their parents are unknown, but they care believed to be Chi-Weenie & Toy mixes, most likely to remain small in size.    Please consider adopting a pair for lifetime companionship and love.

Chewy is a very endearing young boy who loves his doggie beds and belly rubs.  But his soul has been wounded from abuse and neglect, so we ask for your help in finding him a hero.  Trust will take time and patience in an experienced, stable, adult-only home.  Chewy is an attractive Lhasa Apso, 18 months of age, neutered, and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  He is afraid of mops and brooms, loud people, unfamiliar men, young kids, and people who reach at him quickly.  Volunteers have helped him feel more secure and his progress needs to continue in his forever home.  Chewy has enormous potential!

Update: Chewy was adopted on July 28th! Playing regular fetch may be fine for most dogs. But Chewy vastly prefers retrieving the ball and then refuses to give it back to you. So it's more like "retrieve & chase me". He is a happy, darling little guy, generally very well-behaved. Chewy is a handsome Lhasa Apso, neutered, approximately 4-5 years of age. We rescued him from another shelter. Chewy is compatible with other dogs, except around food or treats when his food aggression may kick in. Please be sure to feed him separately from the other dog(s) in the home. Food aggression can diminish with time and with good behavioral guidance from you. Please also plan on regular professional grooming care and budget extra accordingly. Chewy debuts for adoption today.

Update: Chewy was adopted on October 30th! Chewy has been working with us for months on his trust issues so that this very special day would arrive -- his adoption debut day. At the time of rescue he wanted nothing to do with people, resisting any human contact. But with time and a stable routine, he began letting soft-spoken staff and volunteers sit in the kennel with him. He now realizes that people can be kind, so a whole new world of potential has opened up for him. Chewy is a butterscotch Chihuahua, neutered male, 2 years young. He likes other dogs and we believe he may do best in a home with another dog (or dogs) giving him guidance. Please note that Chewy , like us all, is a "work in progress" and needs an experienced, gentle home where his progress can continue.

Update: Chewy was adopted on November 25th! Chewy is a flamboyant young fellow with a dazzling personality. He is a Miniature Pinscher, full of character, neutered and about 2 years of age. We rescued Chewy from another shelter when he ran out of time there. He enjoys the company of other dogs. If you have a dog looking for a brother, please bring him or her for an introduction to Chewy in our courtyard. Chewy debuts for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.
