Toby needs a foster hero please!

Toby, an affectionate baby boy with eye birth defects, was saved from an attempted stoning death. He needs a loving foster home for approximately 1 month for continued healing and socialization.

If you can help this 3-month-old sweetheart as a foster parent, please visit Nevada SPCA in person and ask for Lauren.

*** Sensitive Reader Caution ***

Toby was severely injured by a group of children in late January. A man resting on his porch noticed the kids were throwing rocks at something and he became concerned. The kids scattered when he approached and he rushed the kitten to Nevada SPCA.

Toby's sternum was broken and his ribs were painfully bruised.

Due to a birth defect, Toby's eyes are very small and recessed, giving him only nominal vision, so very careful kitten-proofing of your home is essential to his safety.

Please share Toby's picture to help find him a foster hero.

Hi there! My name is Robby and I'm looking for a new home. I am a sweet boy that loves to play! Give me a ball and I will be your best friend forever. I have a history of breaking out of my yard and my new family will need to have a secure fence and not leave me unsupervised in the yard. When out and about I like to chase kids, so an ADULT only home is necessary. If you think you can give me a stable, loving environment, please come and meet me today! I am about 7 years old and weigh 69 pounds.
Robby is very gentle with his stuffed toys

Thank you to the Nevada Highway Patrol and Las Vegas Metro officers who successfully and safely captured this sweet boy on the freeway on January 25.

Michelangelo, a Rottweiler mix who smiles when you praise him and talk sweet, is 1 year of age, neutered, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.

Michelangelo shut down portions of I-515 and US 95. According to news reports (see below for links), Nevada Highway Patrol and Las Vegas Metro officers worked together to corral him to safety after a 30-minute chase.

Michelangelo is afraid of strangers, but he has enormous loving potential. He is ready to bloom with a gentle hero who will help him build confidence and self-esteem.

animal id # 583873

Hello there! My name is Wilfred and I'm seeking a quiet home where I can relax and be spoiled. This environment has been pretty stressful on me and I'm hoping to find my new family very soon. I can be shy and uncertain of new people and environments and will need a patient family to take their time building a bond with me. My new family should also be prepared for the grooming needs that my breed requires. I am certainly in need of some good TLC. Please come and meet me today! I am about 7 years old and weigh 13 pounds.
 
 
 

Ying

Ying likes bird-watching from household windows, purring at your side, and bonding with cats and mature kids. 
 
He is an exceptionally handsome lynx point Siamese, 5 years of age and neutered, and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.

Ying's previous owners declawed all four of his paws. Besides being cruel, declawing is a mutilation that often brings physical, behavioral, and emotional problems. Like so many other declawed cats, Ying could no longer use the same type of litter and he had accidents outside of his litterbox. 
 
With us, Ying is using the litterbox perfectly, plus we will recommend experimenting with very gentle and soft types of litter that won't hurt his paws.

Please share Ying's picture to help find him a hero for life.

"We adopted Princess almost a year ago and it has been nothing short of amazing— she is our pride and joy! She loves playing with toys, cuddling, and getting as much attention as possible! She loves going to the dog park and playing with other dogs! She has been the perfect addition to our family :)"

He is a lilac point Siamese with mesmerizing blue eyes, 1 year of age and neutered, good with cats and dogs, and ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA

"APPLEJACK" smart and curious Hound mix - maybe some Great Dane?

Applejack tries hard to please!   Once he is out and about on a walk however, his hound curiosity takes over, and it's a little harder to get his attention, so since he is a big strong boy, you'll need a gentle leader or front clip harness to better manage his strength on leash walks. Treats and fun training exercises will be help too. Applejack is going to look gorgeous with good quality food like he is now receiving, and flea treatment as needed during the year.

Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Applejack here's my Mcas weblink 
animal id # 584199


Applejack here! I'm an energetic Hound mix fella looking for my new home. As most hounds, I'm very scent-driven and love to explore and follow my nose. I'm smart and curious and if you're holding a treat I'll show you all the cool tricks I know! Sometimes I get too excited and I have a tendency to jump up on people. If you take me to some obedience courses we can work on curbing that habit and form a nice strong bond together! I would do best in a home without very small children (8+) as I easily get too excited and love to jump on people. Come say hi today! I'm about 3 years old and weigh 62 lbs





 
 

Gabriella

Gabriella, an amiable and intelligent young girl, wants to ensure that the people who she adores never abandon her.

Reportedly handed around from home to home, she became traumatized by continuously losing those she loved. Separation anxiety developed -- fearing every goodbye is forever -- and it will take her time and extraordinary patience on your part for her to realize she can always depend on you to come back to her. (There is no single and instant remedy for separation anxiety, but we can talk with you here about crate-training, steady lifestyle routines, and other reasonable measures that are effective.)

Gabriella is a gorgeous Border Collie & Queensland Heeler mix, 2 years of age and spayed, good with dogs her size and larger, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.

Please share Gabriella's picture to help find a hero.

O'Dell



O'Dell is a zany-fun boy with a comical temperament. 
 
He is a golden-eyed Bully mix, chocolate & white, 4 years of age, neutered, compatible with some female dogs, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA
 
O'Dell was at another shelter that asked for our help due to running out of space for him.

O'Dell reportedly missed meals in a previous home and experienced desperate hunger. Understandably, food is very serious to him. We strongly recommend a very steady meal and treat schedule so he never has to fear going hungry again. Also, due to his intensity with food, he requires a home without young children.

Please share O'Dell's pictures to help find him a hero.

"MINNIE" mellow mature Chi mix


Available for adoption at Multnomah County Animal Services!

Minnie here's my Mcas weblink 
animal id # 584290


Hi I'm Minnie - and while I may look like a mouse, I'm actually a little Chihuahua mix lady! I'm looking for a nice calm home where I can settle in and get to know you and show you my sweet personality. I love to crawl into your lap for comfort but I don't like excessive handling as it can stress me out. I've shown a little food guarding at the shelter but this may not be something you'll see at home. Because of this I would do best in a home with children 8 years and up as I'm also a fragile lady. If you are looking for your new mellow best friend to spend lots of time cuddled up together - you've found her! I'm about 9 years old and weigh 8 lbs.

Monarch

The pain in Monarch's young face is heartbreaking. He begs everyone he meets not to hurt him. 

We can only imagine what this sensitive boy endured. Monarch is beginning to realize he is safe and he is improving with trust. He is drawn to soft-spoken, gentle people. 

Monarch is a Chihuahua & Miniature Pinscher mix, 2 years of age and neutered, good with other dogs, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA

We rescued him from another shelter that asked for our help due to his traumatic past.

Nolan
Lily and Nolan, sister and brother puppies, debut for adoption at 1pm today at Nevada SPCA
 
They are super sweet and adorable Retriever mixes (we believe one of their parents is a Golden Retriever), now 3 months of age and spayed/neutered.

We rescued Lily and Nolan when they were newborns at another shelter that asked for our help. (Their seven siblings will be ready for adoption in the days and weeks to come too.)

Please consider adopting Lily and Nolan together for lifelong love and companionship.

Dallas

Dori

Geraldine

These five young Yorkshire Terrier mixes -- Dallas, Dori, Geraldine, Sam, Tommy -- needed us when their previous owner passed away. All are very sweet and affectionate. Geraldine is the most timid and she needs an especially gentle and peaceful home environment.
