Sherry is a very timid baby girl, sensitive and gentle.  She is a Border Collie mix puppy debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Sherry is approximately 7 months of age, spayed, and expected to grow to medium size.  Please puppy-proof your home and yard for her safety.

Life sure needs to get easier for me.
