Hi… my name is Estrella,

Adopted 7-1-20

My name means “star,” and in this case that comes in the form of an adorable 7-year-old Lab mix girl. The lady I previously lived with thought I was a little more “dog” than she could handle. I can sit when treats are involved, and it seems I know the command “leave it” when distracted. My foster Mom said that I love people and like most dogs. I’m house trained, use the doggie door, and walk well on a leash. I like car rides, but I don’t behave well when I see people and dogs on the sidewalk, so we’re working on that little problem. Some basic obedience training would be helpful. Please consider letting me become the star that could brighten your home and your life.

Hi… my name is Sierra,

Transferred to Lab Rescue 5-2-20

I’m a tall, 18-month-old Lab mix girl that’s now attending classes so I can present myself in a ladylike manner. After being dropped off (dumped), found, and finally brought to TALGV, I needed help settling down. I am learning how much fun and relaxing it is to sniff out treats that have been well hidden throughout the room. Even though it seems like a game, I get instant rewards for a job well done. I’m becoming comfortable with each of my trainers who reinforce (non-verbally) the basic commands I’m being taught, like sit, wait, find it, catch, down, and say hello. It seems I’m not only good looking but I’m also intelligent. I’m hopeful that, with continued training, someone will notice me. If you’re willing and patient, that someone could be you.

Hi… my name is Bella,

Adopted 3-8-20

High Five! A nice lady found me and brought me to TALGV. I stayed with her and her two dogs for a couple of weeks, but we found I did not like sharing with her other girl dog. I did get along fine with my finder’s male dog, though. The first thing you notice are my big radar ears, then my pretty brown and white pinto coat. I am housebroken, know all the common commands, and play fetch. I have impeccable leash manners, so just say the word and I’ll jump in the car to go for a hike with you. I have a bit of an alpha personality, so I’m picky about my dog friends and probably prefer to be an only dog, or perhaps share with a submissive male dog. But I do so love playing with people. I’m pretty laid back, even here in this strange environment. Come on down and say Hi, so we can work out a deal and shake on it.

Hi… my name is Taffy (aka Sandy),

Adopted 2-26-20

Note: Bio needs update

I once belonged to a homeless woman, but she left me with someone else. That person left me outside all day. Then, a kind family took me home and after some time, I became comfortable with them. I was gentle and tolerant with the kids (ages 6 and 15), although scared of small children and other dogs. They loved me for being “VERY sweet,” but staying alone in a crate all day worried me a lot. So here I am—a cute 3-year-old female, who’s still scared sometimes, but loves to cuddle! Thanks to my little size—16 pounds—I could fit perfectly on your lap or by your side, and I’d be so thrilled to have your love and attention. And when would I try to make you happy? Each and every day!

Hi… my name is Chato,

Adopted 2-27-20

I was adopted 2 years ago after I lost my left hind leg in an automobile accident in Mexico. Don’t be concerned; I get   along very well without it. My Mom brought me back to TALGV because our family and home situations have changed, and it is impossible for her to keep me. I’m a sweet, affectionate, and handsome 4-year-old male Boxer mix. I know the commands “stay,” “leave it,” and “wait.” I walk well on a leash, know how to use the doggy door, have good house manners, and I don’t bark without good reason. I love people and love to play; I don’t love cats. Please come in and visit, and if you are looking for that special dog like me, why not just adopt ME?

Hi… my name is Nalla (aka Prickly Pear),

Adopted 3-20-20

Wouldn’t you love a beautiful girl with an almost golden palomino colored coat, big ears, and gorgeous eyes? My owner did until her health situation changed and I had to come back to TALGV with my brother, Ryder. I’m a laid back young lady who lays around with my feet daintily crossed…I’m moderately active. I’m fairly relaxed in this new place, and I don’t bark very much. I’m just curious about the world around me. They say I’m skittish and anxious, but I think maybe I’m just lacking confidence. Having another confident dog around would help me face things in life that I have not been exposed to. I would love to have a furever home, probably with a companion, where I can learn all the fun parts about being a family. Won’t you come and meet me?

Hi… my name is Angel,

Adopted 4-23-20

I like making new people friends. In fact, I’ve left home on my own and gone looking for people. After several such adventures while my former owner was busy working, she surrendered me to TALGV. When you visit me here, you can expect a seriously enthusiastic greeting. I’ll happily return your attention when you run your hands over my beautiful silvery gray coat. And If my coat doesn’t catch your attention, then check out my four little white sox. I’d love to have a family to play with, and possibly another dog, although I can be selective (picky?) about the dogs I like. And since I am still a young guy, about one year old, I’d love to learn new things with you. I hope the forever home out there that needs all the love I have to give is yours!
