Story
Hazel was drop to me during the pandemic because the owner needed temporary help while moving out. The owner never came back and I decided to keep her. Hazel is a very sweet and protective dog. The issue is that she is extremely dominant to other dogs. She bullied constantly my pug at the beginning but now they get along . All other dogs she sees on the street are a problem for her. She becomes aggressive and will attack. She has nipped already two dogs in my apartment community. The last incident was to the HOA presidents Chihuahua. I love Hazel and she’s very happy for weeks at a time but changes as soon as she sees other dogs. I would not think of giving her away but I accept that I’ve been incapable to help her to overcome her aggressive behavior. Sometimes love isn’t enough. She would be fine in a home with no other small animals. She may be ok with bigger dogs. A firm but not cruel or abusive owner a must. I hope there’s somebody out there willing to enjoy my precious Hazel.

Story
This handsome ~1yo love bug was abandoned in Spring Valley, NV, Nov 4. I have searched extensively for his family, but sadly no one is looking for this sweet boy. He is potty trained, loves walks, great in the car, and loves to play. He's super happy and just wants to please. Lots of full body wags, big smiles and always greets me with a toy in his mouth! He loves giving kisses and snuggling. He knows a few tricks and is very quick to catch on to new commands - very smart. No aggression and no resource guarding. He can be reactive on leash (could address w/training), but he's a sweet and playful social butterfly at the park or home - no issues with people or dogs. I don't know how he is with cats or small kids (no opportunity to test this), but so far he's loved everyone he's met and loves to play. He would be ok with dogs if introductions are done properly (he’s being fostered with dogs and is happiest with a playmate), but could be ok being your only baby if not left alone.

Story
I originally rescued Gabbi during Covid. A couple was no longer able to care for her and I had a dog the same ish age so it worked perfectly. She was pregnant at the time and did birth 7 puppies. Gabbi is a beauty, she is about 5 years old. Potty trained and crate trained. Loves to play fetch for hours on end. But definitely not a outdoorsy dog, she doesn't necessarily love long walks. She does enjoy being out in the sunshine, and sun bathing. She is very loving, tons of kisses and cuddles. Enjoys being in your personal space. Gets excited and does still get the zoomies when she meets new people and or in a party setting. Also she is a vocal girl, when shes meeting people she will bark to greet them. She does notify if she hears noises or is scared. She has lived in a home with another female dog before and done well. She has been to a dog bark and done well. But these are not things shes done regularly so she would need some guidance and maybe some encouragement.

Story
We got Eko in March of 2024 from the Henderson Animal Shelter. We have spent his entire time with us working on his training. He is the world’s biggest cuddle bug. He wants to be involved in everything you do. He would like a nice backyard or frequent trips to the park. He is somewhat crate trained. He will go in there to lay down and when it’s time for us to go out for a few hours. We want to help him find a new family because we are expecting a baby. He gets anxious when he is not the center of attention. We have also not had any children to see how he acts with them. We have thought really hard about this and we feel it is best to find a family where he would be able to get plenty of love and hopefully have another approach to working with his anxiety. We look forward to meeting you!

Story
Loving Home Needed for Remington It is with a heavy heart that I need to find a new home for my sweet fur baby. He is an incredibly friendly, loving companion who is amazing with kids. He has a gentle nature, loves to play, and is always ready to offer cuddles and companionship. As a single mom with two small children, I’ve come to the difficult decision that I can’t give him the time and attention he deserves. He thrives on love, playtime, and being part of a family, and I want to ensure he goes to a home that can provide that for him. He is well-behaved, good with other pets. He was born on December 19, 2021 and we brought him here from Hawaii. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate dog who will bring joy to your home, please reach out. I just want him to have a safe, happy place where he will be loved as much as he is here.

Story
Dixie is very affectionate and eager to please. She is also very eager to ‘work’ and play. She requires daily intense activity and can run for hours on end. Extremely active and energetic. She is house trained and understands basic commands. She is the alpha in any group. We do not socialize her with other animals as she is very quick to assert dominance. She truly is an incredible and capable dog, one of the best I have owned in terms of physical characteristics and work/play drive. We are expecting a baby and our household is too busy to make sure she gets the life she deserves. Her son, a two year old singleton puppy, is also available for adoption. Please inquire if interested.

Sweet Honey has endured more heartbreak than any dog should. Adopted as a puppy, she was later abandoned and survived eight long months on the streets before returning to SNARL.

She’s energetic, loyal, and the perfect partner for walks, runs, and adventures. With her big heart and zest for life, she’ll bring endless love and joy to an active family. This resilient, affectionate girl deserves to be someone’s one and only. Could it be you? Apply today at www.snarllv.org.

Jayne: The Pup Cup Queen 👑🐶 Adopted in 2020, abandoned in January 2024—Jayne has been patiently waiting for her new family ever since. But through it all, she’s never stopped being the sweetest, most loving girl around. She’s all about snuggles, playtime, and pup cups (her absolute favorite treat!). Jayne is wonderful with kids and other dogs (a meet-and-greet is always a good idea!) and would love a home where she can soak up love and share her joyful energy. She’s been nothing but sweet, loyal, and full of love, despite everything she’s been through. This cuddle bug thrives on human companionship and wants nothing more than to be by your side—whether that’s playing with the kids, lounging on the couch, or rolling over for belly rubs. She sleeps in bed with her foster family and adores her foster kids, greeting them with tail wags and kisses every morning. She’s also a pup cup connoisseur—seriously, if there’s whipped cream involved, Jayne is all in! She’s well-behaved, house-trained, and eager to please. While she gets along great with other dogs, her favorite place is right next to her people, soaking up every bit of love they have to give. Jayne has waited long enough—could you be the one to give her the forever home she deserves?

Story
Hi, I'm Dottie, a 2.5-year-old Pittie mix looking for my perfect match! I may be a little shy at first, but I warm up quickly, especially to women who shower me with love and attention. I'm still learning some leash manners, but I'm making great progress! I might get a little excited when I see other dogs and pull, so a quieter neighborhood or home with fewer dog encounters might be ideal for me. I'd do best as the only dog in the home. Indoors, I'm a dream! I'm house-trained and have only had one little accident (oops!). I love my Kong bone and will happily chew on it to keep myself entertained. I would do best in a home with adult women, as small children and men seem to intimidate and scare me. Overall, I'm a sweet and easy-going girl who just needs a loving family to call my own. If you're looking for a loyal and affectionate companion, I might be the perfect fit for you!
