Hi… my name is Buster Brown.

Adopted January 29, 2015.

The volunteers adore me, but acknowledge that I’m a timid boy, who needs time and patience to come around, but once I do, I’ll love you forever!  I’m one handsome and smart boy who’s currently working on my AKC Canine Good Citizen award.  I know lots of commands, walk nicely on leash, and love other polite dogs. The trainer at Central Pet uses me in her daycare and socialization program and says I need a “strong presence” in my life (but not “hardhandedness”!), so she’d love to see me with an understanding man or woman — or couple — another dog, and a yard with a nice tall fence. I come with free training for life — not really because I need it, but because my trainer simply adores me — and so will you!

Arrived August 17, 2014.

Hi… my name is Sable.

I was adopted September 14, 2014.

When you arrive with a fractured pelvis, you can be sure you’re going to get LOTS of attention and love. No one knows for certain, but they think that a car hit me (I’m still leery of them), so I was in pretty sad shape. I’m living with a foster mom while I’m recuperating, and she says that I am a sweet, calm girl who loves other dogs (I like to steal their toys and take them to my bed!), get along great with kids, am crate trained, and am “working on” the scary doggy door. I’m a lovely young 25-pound Aussie mix girl, and although I have a little “hop” because of my accident (they say I’m “part rabbit”!), I get along fine anyway, so why not let it be with you?

Red

Hi… my name is Red.

Adopted November 1, 2014.

If I were to put an ad in the “personals” section of the newspaper, it would be “Gentle, friendly, sweet and outgoing gentleman looking for active, loving companion to share long walks, car rides, and quiet moments contemplating nature.” Well, that’s my dream anyway. After my dad could no longer care for me, I spent most of my life in the yard where I got very little exercise (and undoubtedly too much food!), so I’m ever so hopeful that there’s an Aussie lover out there who would like to help me get back down to my ideal weight. I know it might take a while, but with diet modification, exercise, and your encouragement, I’m sure that I’ll be a poster boy for Weight Watchers in no time!

Red qualifies for TALGV’s “Vet Care for Life” program.
