Hi… my name is Louise,

Adopted March 2, 2016

A busy parking lot is a dangerous place for dogs, so my buddy, Thelma, and I were super grateful to be given a ride away from there. Now that we’re here, safe and sound, I’m enjoying meeting lots of new people. I’m a Sharpei mix female and, yes, some people are drawn to that special Sharpei look, but I like to think my biggest asset is my own unique personality. I’m a delightful 2-year-old who’s calm and attentive, genuinely interested in making friends; if you’re kind to me, I’ll meet you more than halfway. A medium size, I’m a good fit for most households, and since my breed is known for devotion to their humans, I’d be your loyal and loving companion for life. May we please start our own special life together today!

Hi… my name is Thelma,

Adopted 11-5-16

Thelma has earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate

On a lucky day for us, my buddy, Louise, and I were rescued from a dangerous spot—a busy store parking lot—and brought to this safe place. Back then, I was too skinny, so I’ve been especially happy with the regular meals around here! And there are more good things—we go on regular walks, I have dog buddies to run and play with, and I recently did something extra special: I earned the AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate! That award was given thanks to my excellent performance in the behavior department. So yes, I’ve made friends and done well here, and I’m hoping that makes me your kind of dog! I’m a Hound mix female, and I want to be the Hound dog who loves you through all the good times ahead.

Hi… my name is Allie,

Adopted March 2, 2016

My brother, Argo, and I were found wandering together, starving, each with evidence of having been hit with pellets. Imagine how grateful we were to the woman who took us in, and how happy she was to discover that despite our past troubles, we are both great dogs. With 7 animals already, she couldn’t keep us, and so our journey brought us to TALGV. I’m a 2-year-old Boxer mix female, black and tan, about 44 pounds. I’m timid, I think you can understand why, but also very friendly in my own way. Since I’m eager to be your friend, you could have fun teaching me what I need to know to be even better. Please let me show you how good it could be to have me in your safe and loving home.

Hi… my name is Marti (aka Della),

Adopted July 22, 2016

People often comment on my gorgeous looks, but I must tell you that I’m not self-centered. I’m so interested in the world around me—people, other dogs, anything that’s happening! I’m a 1-year-old Lab/Staffie mix female, about 60 pounds, a beauty in tan and white (my “baby” pictures are at the end of the website gallery). I’m an exuberant, energetic girl who can be good on a leash but strong, too, and so if I’m distracted, you need to be strong enough to get me “back in line.” I know “sit,” love water (have webbed feet), ride well in a car, and was crate-trained as a puppy. If you come for a visit, I know we’ll have fun meeting each other. And if we really like each other, I’d be so happy to be yours!

Hi… my name is Polly,

Adopted June 12, 2016

“You’re such a good dog,” said the man who found me near a local restaurant. When he couldn’t find an owner, he brought me to TALGV, where the volunteers said the same thing; “You’re such a good dog!” At first, I thought maybe it was the cute curl in my tail they liked, my pretty tan-blonde coat, or even the way my ears perk up. But now I’ve figured it out! I’m a good dog because my sweet nature shows in how I treat people; I’m affectionate, can be gentle, and do my best to make friends with the people I meet. Of course, I like to play, too! I’m still young and energetic, and eager to learn new things. Won’t you please give me the chance to be your very own good dog!

Hi… my name is Lucy,

Adopted March 13, 2016

My amazing story leaves even experienced dog people speechless! It started with a quiet rescue. I was lost and too bashful to be caught until someone offered chicken, which I found irresistible. TALGV was full, so I went to board at a vet’s office, where they found a lump on my side. Something metal was sticking through my skin! They pulled; it wouldn’t budge; so they x-rayed. I had an 8-inch Phillips-head screwdriver in my stomach ! Off to surgery we went; the screwdriver was removed (see last photo in gallery); and no related damage found. Now I’m healed up and ready for some good times. I’m a 2-year-old Boxer mix female, sweet and playful, but not good with cats and probably best as your only dog. How about we create another amazing story of love and fun together!
