Cold Nose Rescue & Sanctuary became a 501(c)(3) non-profit in 2014, but the key person behind its creation, Gordon Hutting, has been carrying on rescue and sanctuary work in Northern Nevada for decades. Although we focus on German Shepherds and Jack Russell Terriers, the rescue has taken in a wide variety of breeds and mixed breeds over the years. Our current residents include a Border Collie and Aussie/Border Collie mix, a dachshund/Jack Russell Terrier mix and several GSDs. Many of the dogs who come to Cold Nose Rescue & Sanctuary have health issues or behavioral issues arising out of past neglect or abuse. Those with chronic ailments will always have a home with us, but would love a home of their own. Many, including our latest additions, however, are healthy and ready for a new home. Cold Nose Rescue & Sanctuary provides neutering/spaying, vaccinations, and full vet care to all rescues before adopting out. We also work on teaching each rescue basic commands, and lifetime free training is available to all who have adopted from us.
