Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

  Thank you to his mom, Sue, for sharing his progress and pictures: "I get your Facebook updates and while I was at work. I saw a dog who was thrown away in the trash in a plastic bag. He was named Devin. I work at Republic Services and left work to go get him. He is renamed Houdini for surviving being thrown out in the trash. He's a very good-natured boy and gets along well with our other 2 dogs. So thank you for giving animals who are literally thrown away a chance."

Queenie is a brilliant, radiant Catahoula Leopard Dog mix ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  She is terrific with kids of all ages, housetrained, and good with other dogs.  Queenie is about 6 years of age and spayed, homeless due to the financial hardship of her previous owner.  Queenie's big challenge is reportedly her Houdini-like capabilities.  Indoors, she is reportedly calm and content.  Outdoors though, she is reportedly so determined that she can sneak out of any yard by whatever means necessary.  For Queenie's safety, we are seeking a home for her where she will never be left unattended in the backyard.

Update: Houdini was adopted on January 10th! Living in the moment, dogs seem to appreciate each day, avoiding despair when they have physical impairments. Houdini is certainly aptly named, as this sweetheart is not just athletic, but intelligent and thoughtful, and he loves sneaking out of his kennel so that we have to run down the hall and catch him. Houdini has three legs.  His front right leg was so badly broken and mangled at the time of rescue that the veterinarian could not save it, and it was removed. Physically and emotionally, Houdini has healed very quickly, adapting beautifully. He is an attractive Chihuahua with a loving nature, very social, a neutered boy about 2 years young.  He is great with other dogs and he debuts for adoption today. Needless to say, please ensure your home and yard are very secure for his safety and protection.
