Tootie, an angel.


Seeing Tootie is like looking in the eyes of an angel.  She is very kind and calm, and full of love, and hopeful that she will finally be loved. 

Like all mixed breeds, Tootie has unique beauty.  She is medium-size and perhaps a mix of Cocker Spaniel and Shetland Sheepdog.  She is spayed, about 8 years of age, good with dogs, shaved down (to get rid of the knots and tangles) and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. 

Tootie is one of 14 dogs we rescued from other shelters just before Christmas.

The Marshmallow Puppies

Cupid and Domino
Bruiser and Sheila
Update: Cupid, Domino, and Sheila were adopted on February 18th!

With personalities so sugary-sweet and soft, we just had to nickname these darling babies "The Marshmallow Puppies".

Their story is a triumph on many levels.  We rescued them shortly before Christmas from one of the filthiest, dirtiest crates we have ever seen.  They were stuffed inside with both their mom and dad.   It was clear all 6 had been existing in the crate for weeks.  

(Note: Their father, Sherman, a Poodle mix, was featured on this site previously and you can read his profile by doing a search at top left).

Their mom, Lilly (a small Spaniel mix), and the puppies lived in a cozy section of a Nevada SPCA staff office for extra attention and monitoring.  Their dad was neutered and adopted in early January.

When Lilly reached 9 weeks she was separated from her puppies and spayed.  The wonderful couple who adopted Sherman, and who volunteer regularly at Nevada SPCA, adopted Lilly too, and both are doing extremely well.

Now the babies have been spayed/neutered, they are 3 months of age and they are ready for adoption too.

Brothers Cupid and Domino most resemble their mom.  Bruiser, who had been the "runt" of the litter but is flourishing now, and sister Sheila most resemble their dad.

They can be adopted separately, but the puppies are so great together we give preference to adopting them in pairs for lifelong companionship.

Please ask for The Marshmallow Puppies by name when you visit.
