Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

Bebe loves playing with bubbles, popping them with her nose. Tell her to wake someone up and she will jump on the bed and pull the covers off of them. Bebe is an intelligent Rottweiler, 5 years of age and spayed, good with cats and dogs, housetrained, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. She became homeless due to her previous owner's financial hardship.    She is wary of strangers, especially men, apparently the result of witnessing domestic violence.    Please help find Bebe a peaceful, stable home where she will only know love and never have to fear rage.

But the work with Dawnielle is finally resulting in great progress. We are thrilled that she understands that many men are kind and gentle and non-threatening. Her protective instincts are being overcome by the realization that not all men cause harm. Dawnielle still requires a very special home, with an understanding of her limitations, where her progress can continue and her "job" becomes to be a loving member of the family, not a protector. A very experienced, adult-only home is needed. Dawnielle is a Boxer mix, spayed female, about 4-5 years of age. She is full of personality and takes ...
