Snowball's Story

I'm Snowball and I love people-every new face feels like a new friend I haven't met yet. But I'll be honest: I'd really rather not share my home with other animals. I like having all the attention to myself, and other dogs can make me feel overwhelmed or frustrated. Dog parks aren't really my thing. Too many personalities, too much chaos. I'm happiest when it's just me and my humans, doing our own thing. I've got tons of energy and sometimes I bounce before I think. I'm eager to learn, though. I just need someone patient who can help me figure out how to channel all this enthusiasm into good manners. If you have what it takes to help shape me into a distinguished gentleman, come meet me today!

Nevada Humane Society's Adoption Policy
So, you’re ready to adopt – wonderful! We are so glad you have decided to become a pet parent. You probably have some questions, naturally. Here are a few things to keep in mind to help you prepare for the big day. Helpful Things to Know Age Requirement: Adopters must be at least 18 years old, and have a current photo ID. Adoption Fees: Adoption prices vary depending on several factors. Pets age 8+ are always fee-waived. Pets come vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered! Dogs in the Home: If there are other dogs in your home, we do not necessarily require the resident dog to meet the adopted dog. However, in some cases, there are dogs available for adoption who must meet resident dogs in the home. If you’d like your dog to meet its possible new sibling, they may do so once the adopter meet-and-greet is completed. Small Animals in the Home: Other small pets in your home (cats, rabbits, etc.) are not permitted to meet prior to adoption. Placing A Pet on Hold: If you meet a pet and it’s love at first lick, but you are unable to adopt them immediately, we allow a 24-hour hold. The cost is $25 and you must first meet the pet, and ensure it is a good fit! Discounts: We offer a military discount for active duty and veterans who've served. Please ask your adoption counselor for more details!
