The Nevada Animal Shelter is the local city shelter. We take in animals from the city of Nevada and try to find them new homes.

To find the homes of lost pets, find forever home for the strays, and to give the best care possible while being at the shelter.

The Nevada Animal Shelter is a place for the lost or surrendered pets of The City of Nevada, to find warmth, food, fresh water, love and attention.

All animals adopted out from the shelter will have their vaccines(excluding a rabies vaccine), worming, flea medication, and heartworm tested if over the age of 1 year.

The adoption fees for the shelter are as follows:
Dogs - $10+cost of spay/neuter and rabies vaccine.
Cats - $5+cost of spay/neuter and rabies vaccine.
(Cost for spay/neuter may vary, depending on which local vet clinic you choose to have the animal spayed/neutered at.)

City Tags costs are as follows:
Spayed/Neutered Dogs: $5.00
Intact Dogs: $10.00
City Tags can be bought here at the shelter, at Nevada Vet Clinic, or 54 Vet Clinic. Proof of current rabies vaccine must be present when buying city tags.

Reclaim Fees:
When an animal is brought into the shelter a reclaim fee is automatically set.
Cats 1st day reclaim: $9
Dogs 1st day reclaim:$14
These fees go up $4 a day until the animal is reclaimed.
Dogs being reclaimed must have proof of a current rabies vaccine, and if the owner resides in the city, the dog must also have current city tags. Fees for both are as follows:
Rabies Vaccine Fee: $12.00
City Tags: $5.00(spayed/neutered) or $10.00(Intact)
These fees must be paid along with the reclaim fee before the dog will be allowed to leave the shelter.
