Hi… my name is Chevy,

Adopted April 8, 2016

I was adopted as a puppy* and spent five years with my family, but when a recent job transfer required a big move, they had to leave me behind. We were all sad to say good-bye, and it’s extra tough for me because sometimes I’m scared of new people. Given a chance, though, I warm up and respond to kindness with kindness. In my previous home, I had fun playing with cats and other dogs, and have always been happy to go on walks. I’m a black and tan Lab/Heeler mix male, who’s used to family life and loves one-on-one time, too; a great fit in almost any household. Please don’t pass me by just because I’m shy. Just think what a grateful, loyal and happy friend I’ll be if you choose me!

Hi… my name is Leon,

Adopted March 25, 2016

The trouble at my former home didn’t involve me, but it is what left me without a home. That’s okay, though; like most dogs, I’m very good at starting over. Oh sure, I’m a little shy at the moment. When you pet me, I may bow my head, and yelling may startle me for a moment, but my big Lab heart will open wide to your kindness. I’m a young guy, so if I start living the good life now, I could have years and years of gloriously happy days. Already, I’m friendly and loveable. But don’t just take my word for it—let me show you! I’ll welcome you into my world, and if you do the same for me, I’ll be your grateful and devoted friend forever.

Hi… my name is Sasha Ann,

Adopted April 10, 2016

Sasha Ann comes with TALGV’s FREE Vet Care for Life Program

It’s wonderful the way people are extra sweet to me because I’m 13 years old. But, between you and me, there are lots of great things about being an older dog.  Like my appreciation of simple pleasures—easy walks (I’m very good on a leash), long naps, and gentle touches from my person are more than enough to make me happy. I’ve long since learned the importance of good house manners, and here’s another really important thing: I come with free vet care for life! I’m a Lab mix female who’s  interested in new people and other dogs, including my best dog friend, Austin. And I still dream that someone will give me the most generous gifts of all: love and a place called home. Could that someone be you?

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 Andre.

Adopted December 28, 2015

A short while ago, when I was lost and on my own, I didn’t have time for fun. I had to focus on trying to find what a dog needs every day. Guess I had my nose to the ground because suddenly there was a kind gentleman telling me that I was headed in the direction of the mountains, which was not my wisest choice. Instead, he recommended TALGV, which was great advice. My friends here provide food, water and shelter, and I’m free to practice my doggie skills and have a whole lot of fun. Turns out I’m really good at playing, being a friend, and sometimes even smiling! I’m a young, eager-to-please, brown Lab mix male, who’s hoping to meet you real soon. I think we could be real happy together.

Hi… my name is Dora,

Adopted June 27, 2015

When my family adopted my sister, Princess, and I right after we were weaned, they had every good intention of making sure that we got the puppy training we needed. Well, they had three young kids (whom we totally adored) and they needed so much attention that that plan quickly fell by the wayside! When one of the kids got sick, they had even less time for us, so here I am now, a 9-month-old Husky/Lab/ Hound mix, and eager to learn all “good dog etiquette” things I missed out on. I’m always on the lookout for human interaction, get along great with my sister, but I absolutely don’t “do” cats at all, so a home where I can get lots of attention from humans will make my life complete!

Hi… my name is Buster,

Adopted January 5, 2016

I was found in a busy parking lot, running through the aisles, trying to find a way out of that dangerous spot! Lucky for me, a kind person brought me to TALGV, where now I’m safe and instead of running for cover, can run around for fun and exercise. I’m a happy and friendly guy, always glad to see the volunteers, and they’re helping me learn important things like how to walk well on a leash. Since I’m naturally attentive to my person, learning how to please you should come naturally, too. I’m a 55-pound adult Lab mix, mainly black with distinctive white markings (check out my front legs; one mainly white, the other mainly black), and ready to share lots of good times with you. How about we get together today!
