Travis

Image
A man spotted Travis panting under a scrawny bush in the desert trying to get some shelter from the 110-degree heat. He knew Travis would perish if he failed to help him immediately. We traced his microchip ID, but he was refused by his previous owners (who said they did not know how he ended up abandoned in the desert). Travis deserves so much better. He is a playful, very good-natured youngster, a Labrador Retriever mix, 2 years of age, neutered, and good with other large dogs, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.    We believe Travis has the temperament to be exceptional with kids. He enjoys fetching toys and shows signs of housetraining.

Hinata

Image
Hinata is good with kids and likes covering people he adores with doggie kisses.  He is a Shiba Inu mix (size, body type, curly-Q tail of a Shiba Inu),1 year young, neutered boy, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Hinata was not socialized with other dogs and gets agitated around them. For now, he needs a one-dog household, but with good future socialization we believe he could become accustomed to other friendly dogs.  We rescued Hinata from another shelter and his background is otherwise unknown.

Sasha

Image
Sasha is forlorn and confused about becoming homeless (due to her previous owner's work schedule), so we are working to lift her spirits and reassure her that she will soon be in a very loving home.  She is a gentle, good-natured Labrador Retriever, 6 years of age and spayed, housetrained & crate-trained, good with kids and dogs, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Please visit and ask for Sasha by name.

Gunner is a thoughtful young boy who longs to feel accepted. He just wants to belong to someone who will love and appreciate him.  Gunner is good with kids and may be compatible with friendly dogs too.  He is a Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix, 3 years of age and neutered, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Gunner was found on the streets with an old leg injury and no sign of responsible ownership.

June

Image
June is a Russian Blue mix with a beautiful spirit and mesmerizing eyes and she is ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  She is amiable with people of all ages and cats, about 7 years of age and spayed.  We usually find June perched near windows so she can watch over the rooms and occasionally gaze outside to see the birds and neighbors. She was surrendered due to her previous owner's allergies.

Vader

Image
Vader likes to play ball and be included in family activities.   He is wonderfully friendly and outgoing, a Labrador Retriever, 5 years of age and neutered, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Vader is housetrained and good with dogs and kids.  He became homeless due to no fault of his own (his previous owners' housing situation).

Hannah

Image
Hannah is majestic, friendly, and intelligent.  She is housetrained and good with kids and large dogs.  Hannah is 2 years young, spayed, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  She needed us because a member of her previous family was allergic to her.

Angelo

Image
Angelo is an incredibly lovable and huggable youngster adjusting well to life on three legs and he triumphantly debuts for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. Angelo is blessed with a jovial spirit and adores cats, dogs, and kids, plus he's housetrained too.    He is a large, stocky, 70-pound American Bulldog mix with a teddy bear personality winning everyone's heart!   Angelo is 2 years of age and neutered.    At the time of rescue his hind right leg was snapped and crushed so badly it was beyond repair and required amputation.

Nobody wants me?

Zeus is well-behaved, compatible with kids and dogs, housetrained and crate-trained. He has a fun, pleasant personality and enjoys playing ball. Over the months Zeus has watched thousands of other rescued dogs get adopted, but he still awaits someone wonderful to want him for a devoted, lifelong companion and family member. Zeus is  Boxer & Bully mix, 7 years of age and neutered, with handsome tiger/brindle coloring.  Please visit Nevada SPCA and ask for Zeus by name. Special thanks to Pet'ographique for this new portrait to help win Zeus new consideration.

Will you let me bless you with my unconditional love?

Please help find a hero for Dixie, an exceptionally sweet 13-year-old who has lost most of her hearing. Dixie has a heavenly temperament and she is good with dogs and reportedly great with kids too.  She likes to be pampered with ice-cold water (she won't drink warm water) and enjoys light play with tennis balls and Frisbees.  She is a Labrador Retriever with a beautiful spirit, spayed, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Dixie needed us when her previous owners moved into a home where large dogs are reportedly not allowed. 

Tell me that you are happy with me.

Paisley survived a house fire and we continued her treatment for smoke inhalation.  Her previous family decided to surrender her to Nevada SPCA so Paisley could find a loving home as soon as possible, because their housing situation could remain unsettled for many months, or longer.  Paisley is a gentle, very good-natured Saint Bernard, 5 years of age, spayed, housetrained, good with dogs and mature kids, and she debuts for adoption today.  She is blind in her left eye from an old injury.  Paisley enjoys stuffed animal toys and likes to hear you tell her that you're happy with her.

Nemo, a majestic young Belgian Malinois mix for adoption.

Image
Nemo is a well-behaved, pensive, and smart young Belgian Malinois mix debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. He is 1 year of age, a neutered boy, reportedly housetrained and crate-trained and compatible with dogs and kids.  Nemo's previous owners surrendered him to us and said the owner of their house "don't want him".  Nemo deserves much better and he is ready to bless you with his unconditional love and devotion for life.

I stood at the window pleading for them to let me inside with the family.

Betty is a cheerful, fun-loving young girl with a warm personality and she enjoys kind children very much.  She is a Golden Retriever mix (but with a rich black coat), 1 year of age, spayed, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Betty is also good with other dogs.  We have mixed information about why Betty lost her previous home, ranging from a complaint that the kids won't play with her to a report that she was living exclusively outdoors on a patio.  Betty deserves to be cherished as a valued family member and welcomed indoors.
