Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

Colleen , a young angel, reveals devastating pain in her eyes. She does not yet realize that she is forever safe from violence. Colleen is a tender-hearted Terri-Poo, 2 years of age, good with other dogs, now spayed and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA . *** Sensitive Reader Warning *** At the time of rescue Colleen was witnessed being punched repeatedly in the face by a dog breeder. The witnesses were so traumatized by the evil rage they did not think to get his license plate number (to submit to government authorities for prosecution). But the witnesses were successful in rescuing Colleen and five other dogs he was exploiting for the breeding of puppies to sell. Fast movements and loud voices understandably terrify Colleen . Please be extraordinarily patient, comforting, and understanding as she adjusts to you, your loving home, and your lifestyle routine.

Chantal is on a long, slow journey of emotional healing from severe abuse and neglect. She has seen the worst of human nature and she's terrified she will experience terror and harm again. Chantal is a darling Yorkshire Terrier mix, about 6 years of age, a spayed girl, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. When fearful, she can reportedly be nippy, so an experienced, adult-only home is needed for her continued progress and blooming. We believe a big sister or big brother dog may help her tremendously with adjusting.

Kara's expression is heartbreaking -- she is just a baby but she scans the eyes of everyone she meets carefully to try and read whether they intend her any harm.  Our information is third-hand, but indicated she was the victim of physical violence and emotional cruelty (that included food deprivation as punishment).  Kara , though, has enormous loving potential.  She is already making progress with volunteers and staff, and she is now ready to continue blooming in a loving, stable, forever home.  Kara is a "Bullador" puppy (Bully & Labrador Retriever), 6 months of age, now spayed and debuting for adoption at Nevada SPCA (www.nevadaspca.org).  She does best with other dogs around to comfort her.  Please help us find Kara a hero.

Luna still looks forlorn, but her spirit is on the mend and she is trusting us a bit more each day.  This beautiful young girl has a tremendous, loving future ahead -- and she is starting to realize it.  A caring woman found her on the streets of Las Vegas.  Luna was 'in heat' and suffering from abuse, terrified of most people she met.  She is a small Bully mix with expressive golden eyes, about 2 years of age, now spayed and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  Luna seems to be fine with some dogs.  Please help us find her a stable, forever home where she never has to hear screaming or fear violence again.

Mr. French was wandering the streets of Las Vegas with no sign of responsible ownership (no ID tag, no microchip ID, not neutered).  Worse, he had been beaten, and he was terrified every new person he encountered might hurt him too.  Mr. French is a handsome young Basset Hound, 2 years of age, now neutered and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  He is very slow to trust and his emotional recovery will take time and patience in an experienced, adult-only home with a stable lifestyle routine.  Please help Mr. French find a hero to ensure that he continues seeing only the best of human nature from now on.

Autumn is so afraid someone will scream at her, or strike her, that she cowers on the ground.  But she lets us pick her up and accepts our kindness.  We can only imagine what she has endured, yet she still wants to believe in people.  When Autumn sees another dog, her spirits lift and her tail begins to wag.  She loves other dogs and we would love to find her a home with a big sister dog or a big brother dog so she can reach her full loving potential.  Autumn is a very pretty, petite Bully mix, 2 years young, now spayed and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA .  Please help us find Autumn a hero.
