Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

"Does anyone want me?" Christian longs to know where he belongs and who he can love. Christian is an attractive and humble boy, an Australian Shepherd mix, 6 years of age, good with other dogs, neutered, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA .    He was at another shelter that asked for our help due to his timidity with strangers.

Christian intently assesses new people to determine whether they intend to hurt him. He is docile and wants to run if he's unsure.  We do not know what Christian has endured, but he exhibits the emotional scars that usually come from being in a cruel, loveless home.  Please be patient with him as he comes to learn and understand what a magnificent boy he is.  Christian is a Labrador Retriever & Flat-Coated Retriever mix, 3 years young, neutered, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA .  He was at another shelter that asked for our help due to his timidity.

Minutes ago Christian (pictured here) and his siblings were just rescued from unconscionable peril at the last possible moment! They are part of the 9 rescued motherless kittens so far today who need foster parents please. If you can help, please visit Nevada SPCA today before 5pm and ask for Lauren. **Caution -- some may not want to read further**: All of the kittens are now safe and receiving loving care. But the facts below may be too graphic and distressing for some. Please do not read further if concerned. We need to list the basic facts below to tell their story. We try not to show images or share facts that are unnecessarily inflammatory. However, it's important that their stories are told and perhaps further cruelty can be stopped. A family at a weekly apartment complex witnessed a man in motion to swing a hammer on the kittens. In front of young children, the man was attempting to behead Christian over the mouth of the ...

Christian , a good-natured Cockapoo with a warm personality, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  He is 3 years young, neutered, and good with dogs and older kids.  Please plan and budget for regular professional grooming. We rescued Christian from another shelter that asked for our help.

Christian , 10, revels in praise and loves hearing us tell him that years of love are ahead. All indications suggest he endured many years, if not a lifetime so far, in a loveless backyard with little interaction.  At the time of rescue he was at another shelter in emaciated condition with hair loss from malnutrition and an open neck wound (likely from a too-tight collar slicing into his neck).  Christian is rebounding physically and emotionally.  His veterinary care included dental care and he is on a premium probiotic weight gain plan, with his skin and hair gradually improving.  Christian wants to be with dogs and people so he's never lonely again.  He is a chocolate Miniature Pinscher, neutered, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.

Christian is a junior kitten who enjoys games of hide-and-seek, playing with your hair, and purring in your arms.  He is fascinated by people and their behaviors, always trying to learn and understand.  Christian is an adorable brown tabby, under 1 year of age, good with cats, now neutered and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA. He was rescued after being abandoned on the streets.  Special thanks to Pet'ographique for capturing his spirit so perfectly in this portrait.

Update: Christian was adopted on December 3rd! Christian is a theatrical puppy who loves attention. He is a medium-size, butterscotch & white Heinz 57, perhaps with Retriever & Bully. He is neutered and approximately 11 months of age. At the time of rescue Christian was extremely thin and his ribs and bones were sticking out visibly. But he is eating well, recovering his energy and weight and making beautiful progress. Christian adores other dogs! He is very playful and outgoing, so be sure to include him in as many family activities as possible. Christian debuts for adoption today.
