Swizzle, Home 4 Spot Meet Swizzle! Swizzle is a 9-month-old boxer/pitbull mix. He weighs about 50 pounds. He is very sweet but takes a moment meeting new dogs, as his manners aren’t quite there yet. He does not like cats. He’s crate trained, potty trained and knows basic commands. Swizzle is neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. Call Dawn at 702-218-8081 or visit tinyurl.com/home4swizzle.

Tobie, Foreclosed Upon Pets Inc. Tobie is 3½ years old, a chunky sweetheart of a cat. He plays well with children and dogs. He is a great escape artist and enjoys car rides. However, he gets very anxious when locked up in confined spaces. When anxious, Tobie can nip and scratch. When acclimated, this behavior disappears, and he wants lots of attention. Tobie would make an excellent companion cat for older children or adults. Visit fupilv.org, email forecloseduponpets@hotmail.com or call 702-272-0010.

Gertrude, Nevada SPCA With time and trust, we can build the most beautiful relationship together, and it will last forever. I am Gertrude, a Bengal/Siamese mix, 8 years of age and spayed. I need someone to love. Please consider me. Visit nevadaspca.org or call 702-873-7722.

Trinidad, All Fur Love Trinidad is a sweet, loving little girl who wants to be around people. She does not want to live with other cats. She loves to be pet and follows people around.

Tinkerbell, The Animal Foundation My name is Tinkerbell (ID No. A834869), and I’m a 10-year-old spayed female terrier.

Grace, Happy Home Grace is a beautiful grey tabby who is in need of a loving home in her senior years. She loves being with people and is very affectionate. She requires a special diet but is in good health. She’s been waiting in a cage for five months for that special someone. Is it you? Call 702-810-6687 or visit happyhomeanimalsanctuary.org.

“I’m Phillip Rodriguez from Henderson. I’m including a picture of my two Chihuahuas that are brothers, 19 weeks old. The small one on the left is Poncho, and his brother is Nacho. I received both dogs as a Christmas gift. I have to say it was a wonderful Christmas.”

Ray and Linda Wright of Las Vegas said, “These are our two adopted kitties, Willow and Mac. We adopted them at 6 months old from All Fur Love and have had more fun ever since. They are now 1 year old. Here they are resting from their most recent bout of ‘crazy kitties.’ They have brought so much joy to our home; we are retired, and they keep us on our toes. Couldn’t imagine life without them now.”
