Lucy

Hi… my name is Lucy,

Adopted 11-25-16

When I grow up, I want to be a dog like my mom—playful but calm, eager to please, and fun-loving, too. And you know what? I think I’m off to a good start! Mom is a beautiful Border Collie mix, and she’s been a wonderful mother. Even though she was a stray when found, she gave all her babies excellent care and teaching. For instance, on a walk recently, one of my siblings got too far away. Mom didn’t panic or get mad, but she barked at him until we were together again. That’s the kind of smart, devoted dog I want to be! I’m a delightful female, brown and white, now about 24 pounds, and if you make me yours, we can make each other happy for a long time to come! (new photos and amended bio will be available soon)

Ferdinand

Hi… my name is Ferdinand,

Adopted October 16, 2016

Today is a wonderful day! You’re reading my story, maybe becoming my friend, and I’m safe and cared for here at TALGV. Oh, I know life’s not perfect. After all, I was a stray, a dog without love or a home. But I have a gift that helps: An abundance of joy! Sometimes I’m so happy to see someone, I wiggle from head to tail! And if you want to teach me things, I’d be more than glad to work hard at pleasing you. I’m a 1-year-old male with a soft black and white coat, about 50 pounds, and volunteers here say I’m part Border Collie, part angel. They think I’m smart, sweet, and charming. Won’t you please come visit today and see if you agree? We may just be meant for each other!

Hi… my name is Fur,

Adopted September 12, 2016

When I grow up, I want to be a dog like my mom—playful but calm, eager to please, and fun-loving, too. And you know what? I think I’m off to a good start! Mom is a beautiful Border Collie mix, and she’s a wonderful mother. A stray when found, she provided all her babies with excellent care and teaching. For instance, out on a walk recently, my walker and I were too far ahead to suit Mom. She didn’t panic or get mad, but she barked at us until we were together again. That’s the kind of smart, devoted dog I want to be! I’m a delightful black and white male, now about 26 pounds, and if you make me yours, we can make each other happy for a long time to come!

Dolly

Hi… my name is Dolly,

Adopted 11-25-16

I was a surprise guest who brought unexpected gifts. Put another way, I was a stray who appeared in my finders’ yard and proceeded to give birth to five puppies! That was on 5/27, and my babies were all so delightful that our finders kept two of them, while I came to TALGV with the other three. I continue to keep a mama’s eye on the youngsters while here—teaching by example things like how to walk on a leash—but sometimes when people notice how young-looking and svelte I am, they ask if I’m just a pup, too! Well, I’m 2 years old, about 48 pounds, a classy brown, tan and white beauty with countless happy fun-filled days ahead. Won’t you please come visit and see if we might be the perfect match!

Bruce

Hi… my name is Bruce.

Adopted 6-16-17

Although I may not be a purebred Border collie (something else good is “going on” in there!), I have many traits of that breed (smart as a whip, energetic, and loving) and I need a “job” to do to keep my mind (and body) occupied! My people adopted me two years ago when I was just six weeks old, and they thought they’d have lots of time for my education, but with four kids ranging in age from 13 years down to 10 months, I sort of got short shrift on that score. But I’m ever so willing to learn, and I’m hoping for an ACTIVE family who has had experience with guys like me who can channel my energies into the good kind of behavior. I’m perfectly housebroken, and mom says that I’m a sweet dog who is tremendously lovable, so I know with just a few months of focused attention and training I’ll be perfect!

Miss Bella

Hi… my name is Miss Bella.

Adopted October 28, 2015

Most canines (especially youngsters like me) need to have some kind of entertainment or a job to do. Boredom can lead to things not popular with our people. My mom and dad said I was a sweet, passive girl, but I did “get into things” when left alone, so they decided I’d do better with a family that was home more and could give me the attention I deserve. I love to play with (unstuffed) squeaky toys, ropes, and know all my basic commands; I just need someone who can direct my energies toward doggie things. (Long walks or agility would be wonderful.) Here at TALGV, I’m learning to use a lot of energy in playing with my new doggie friend. I’m a young Border Collie/Lab mix, who’ll make a great addition to your family.
