Wrangler, a young Bulldog overcoming a violent past.

Wrangler's anxiety already indicates that he has endured pain and heartbreak and confusion.  But there are many other very troubling signs that his previous owner would have to answer for, if ever found, including numerous open bite wounds on his front legs and the sides of his face (not visible in this straight-on shot), some old, some new.  Further, he was found on the mean streets with no signs whatsoever of responsible ownership (no ID tag, no microchip ID, and not neutered).  Wrangler is now neutered, his wounds are beginning to heal, and he is ready for adoption into a responsible, stable home where he can expect love and comfort, and no more violence.  Wrangler is a large Bulldog, just under 1 year of age.

I no longer feel so invisible.

Leo is a quiet-natured boy recovering well from devastating neglect and he valiantly debuts for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  He is a 10-pound Toy Poodle mix, about 5 years of age, neutered, and good with other sweet dogs.  At the time of rescue he was at another shelter with multiple open wounds.  Leo is now healed and the plant material stuck in his long coat has been shaved away.  Leo needs regular professional grooming and daily medication for allergies.
