Here's what your looking for (and they probably are looking for folks like you, too) and what the Capt was referring to. I used to volunteer here a few years ago, wonderful place for animals with no one to love them...

Yep, Pet Smart Rainbow and Lake Mead, they are there every Sat minimum with 6 to 15 pets up for adoption. Thank you for volunteering.

There's also the Southern Nevada chapter of the Greyhound Pets of America. They rescue greyhounds from the track. I've been to a couple of their picnics, and they're a very worthwhile group.

I think the Nevada SPCA needs help. That's where we got our Herman.

You can foster for Lied Animal shelter..i do that.
Every animal you foster is saved...they put down so many kittens due to over crowding.

I'm sure they are. Besides German Shepard rescue there are folks doing the same things with other breeds. Greyhounds come to mind for one. Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, UT, needs volunteers too.
