Nevada Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Nevada SPCA)
Building a Compassionate Community
Nevada SPCA is a life-saving resource dedicated to keeping pets and people together, creating meaningful connections in a community where everyone can thrive. We serve as a vital safety net for Southern Nevada’s vulnerable pets by providing care, resources, and, most importantly, second chances.
Our Story
Founded in 1982, we are proud to be Southern Nevada’s original no-kill shelter. As an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we rely entirely on the generous support of our community, grants, and donors—not government funding—to fuel our mission.
Our Care Model
Our work goes far beyond sheltering. We provide comprehensive medical care and a welcoming, healthy environment at our Procyon Street facility for the dogs, cats, rabbits, and small animals in our care. Beyond our walls, our community support programs—including our Pet Pantry and veterinary assistance—help keep pets in the loving homes they already have.
The Adopter Connection
We believe that every animal is an individual with a unique personality, and our staff is dedicated to ensuring they find the perfect match for your lifestyle. Our adoption process is designed to be personal and transparent, helping you find your new best friend while ensuring that every pet is set up for a lifetime of love and comfort. Whether you are ready to adopt, foster, or volunteer, you are an essential part of the life-saving journey.
Find Your Happiness Today
We invite you to visit us and meet the wonderful animals currently waiting for their forever families. Please browse our adoptable pets online or visit us during our walk-in hours to start a new chapter of friendship. Your support helps us continue our mission of hope, kindness, and compassion for every animal in need.

10/14 - There’s truly no better feeling than walking into a shelter knowing you have the opportunity to give back and make a difference in the lives of dogs who need it most. 🐾❤️ For us, dog training has always been about more than building a business. It’s about helping dogs become the best versions of themselves, giving owners the tools they need to succeed, and using our experience to help dogs who may not have someone advocating for them yet. Every shelter dog deserves patience, structure, love, and a real chance at finding a family to call their own. If our time, knowledge, and training can help even one dog become more confident, more adoptable, and better prepared for their forever home, then every minute is worth it. Being able to walk through those doors and give back to our community is something we’ll never take for granted. This is why we do what we do. At Cactus K9 Training, it’s bigger than training dogs — it’s about changing lives, one dog and one family at a time. 🌵🐕❤️ Family 4 Life. We make tails wag & owners brag. #CactusK9Training #ShelterDogs #GiveBack #AdoptDontShop #DogTraining RescueDogs LasVegasDogs DogTrainer CommunityFirst Family4Life

10/14 - Lovely little Lady is hoping you’ll scoop her up and give her the loving life she deserves during her golden years! 💛 Shelter life is a bit overwhelming for this precious 12.5-year-old senior girl (18 lbs).🥺 But during her time in foster, her true personality blossomed! Lady is a very shy soul who will need time, patience, and understanding to decompress and feel comfortable in her new surroundings. She would thrive in a quiet, cozy home where she can snooze in her comfy bed, have a safe crate to retreat to when she needs some space. Her foster shared that she LOVES going out for little walks and that it’s a great way to gain her trust. She is potty trained and always appreciates a little jerky treat! 😉 She also really enjoys meeting other calm, small dogs and will happily offer sweet little kisses whenever she wants pets. 🥰 Please give this sweet senior the love and care that she needs, and offer her a loving, safe place where she can retire! Meet Lady at Nevada SPCA today. 🏡 💕🐾 #adoptaseniordog #adoptashelterdog #lasvegas #nevadaspca

10/10 - One home. Two little seniors. And these two need to go together. Meet Precious and Lil Bit, my Nevada SPCA Pets of the Week. Precious is a 13-year-old Maltese with one eye, and Lil Bit is a 10-year-old Shih Tzu. They’re a bonded pair, so wherever they go next, they’ll be going together. And if you’ve already got a full house, these two might fit right in. They get along with kids, cats, and other dogs. Puppies get plenty of attention, but the seniors deserve a look, too. Especially when you could give two of them a home. Head to the Nevada SPCA to meet Precious and Lil Bit. And if you can’t adopt, share this video so we can help them find a home together.
