Hi… my name is Garfunkel,

Adopted March 13, 2016

I was very happy with my family and got along great with the young kids, a teenager, and a young Spaniel, but had trouble with the senior Shepherd. We just couldn’t stay together, so I had to go, which broke my heart. But the TALGV volunteers assure me I have a bright future, thanks to all my great qualities. I’m friendly and fun-loving, leash trained and energetic, and could be a super buddy for someone active. I have a sweet side, too, and love gentle touches from my human friends. A young guy, 50 pounds, I’m a handsome Boxer/Dalmatian mix, white with some black spots. Already I know “sit” and “shake,” and am eager to learn more. Please come for a visit and let me show you what a great companion I will be.

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 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!

Hi… my name is Godiva,

Adopted December 22, 2015

“She loves my kids and is the sweetest thing.” That’s what the woman who found me told TALGV, and the volunteers agree wholeheartedly that I’m sweetness on four paws. I’d been lost when I wandered into that lady’s garage, so I was relieved to find a kind stranger. And now, after being a little shy at first, the real me is shining through—friendly, glad for company and to go on walks, and very tuned in to people who give me some attention, which means I’ll be eager to make you happy, too. I’m young, 18 months old, mainly chocolate brown with some white, and a nice medium-size Boxer mix female. I’d be a great addition to most households, so how about yours? Could be the best place for us is together!
