Bebe

Image
A married couple horseback riding together in a southern Utah forest discovered a starving dog so frail and emaciated she could barely stand up. The couple, Brent & Kimberly, lifted her up on to one of their horses, rode her back to the safety of their home, and then heroically nursed her back to life. Bebe is now enjoying lifted spirits, good body mass, and ever-improving energy levels.    She is a medium-size Heinz 57 with Manchester Terrier and many other breeds, 3 years of age and spayed, housetrained & crate-trained, good with dogs and kids (but not cats), and triumphantly debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA .

Annie and Jane

Annie is an adventurous baby girl who loves exploring rooms and playing hide & seek with people and cats.    Everything and everyone in the home is fascinating to her. Annie is a blue & cream (dilute tortoiseshell) kitten, 3 months of age and spayed, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA . After being found motherless at only a few weeks of age, Annie survived by bottle feeding and nurturing care in a devoted foster home. She was raised and socialized with cats, dogs, and kids.  Jane is Annie's sister.  Jane loves her toys.  She was raised and socialized in the same wonderful foster home as her sister.

Rooney likes chatting with you, especially when you say his name, and he's great with other cats.

10 babies just rescued.

Image
10 babies -- 16 days old, 5 girls and 5 boys -- are now safe and being placed in foster homes this afternoon for bottle-feeding and other nurturing care. We rescued the puppies from another shelter that asked for our help. Their mother, a Bully mix, was reportedly confiscated from a backyard breeder. Her previous owner was allowed by authorities there to reclaim her, but only after she was spayed to ensure she never breeds again. The authorities refused to let the mother's previous owner have the puppies and instead directed the babies to our rescue program for foster care and then adoption placement in responsible, lifelong homes. We have foster homes for all 10 lined up for tonight, but some can only help short-term, so if you are interested in helping as a foster parent to help nurture and socialize them through the whole summer, please visit Nevada SPCA in person and ask for DJ. Bottle milk and other supplies for our Amazon Wish List is another...

Tenderheart needs a foster hero please.

Image
Tenderheart's remarkable survival and ongoing recovery. Post 2 of 2 this morning of dogs surviving perilous starvation and ready for nurturing foster homes to continue their recoveries. Tenderheart was found abandoned in a crate without food or water for an unknown length of time. Most of her body mass was gone and you could see her every bone. Like Elsie, posted earlier this morning, we rushed Tenderheart into emergency care at a veterinary hospital to save her life. Tenderheart is eating premium, nutritious food well on her own. It will take many weeks to regain muscle and energy, which may happen best in the peace and comfort of a gentle foster home. If you can foster Tenderheart , please visit Nevada SPCA in person and ask for DJ. Or please share this to post to help find her a foster hero. Thank you. Tenderheart , 2, German Shepherd.
