Hi… my name is Raquel.

Adopted August 17, 2015

There’s not a whole lot to go on for my “story” because I just appeared at TALGV early one morning in May 2015, but when you meet me you won’t care one bit about where I’ve been and what I’ve done! Since there wasn’t room for me when I arrived, I was boarded at a kennel for a while, but everyone who met me knew that I would be a happy camper when I got into a home of my own. I’m a 45-pound, round about 2½-year-old yellow Lab mix (and you know how sweet and smart they are!), so take this opportunity to come meet me so we can talk about our future together!

Hi… my name is Toby.

Adopted August 6, 2015.

My little friend, Lady, and I were abandoned in a rental house. A sad story, but I am not a sad dog! I say life is good, and I love sharing it. I’m a big guy, an 87-pound black Lab, and I have a big heart, too. When my little friend jumped on my back for a better view, that was fine with me. I’m happy to help. And apparently it did help, because I’m glad to say that lucky Lady was adopted. Now I’m hoping it’s my turn. If you and I spend a few minutes together, you’ll see that I’m calm, friendly, ready to give and receive love; just all around good company. At 5 years old, I’m looking forward to my happy days ahead. Could they be with you?

Hi… my name is Blaze.

Adopted September 27, 2015

My friend, Trefor, and I lived with several other dogs and we all got along, but we were just too many dogs in one place. Now I’m looking for new friends and since I’m friendly in a gentle sort of way, I’m really hoping you’ll notice me. At a slender 42 pounds, I’m a nice size for a 2-year-old female lab mix. My coat is a beautiful basic black with just a sprinkling of white. I’m athletic, too, because I can climb or jump a 6-foot chain link fence, and really must learn not to do that. I admit, thunderstorms scare me, but most of the time I’m just loving, playful and sweet. If you have lots of love to give, too, maybe my forever best friend will be you.

Hi… my name is Sammie.

Adopted July 24, 2015

Other dogs have lost their homes due to the dreaded D word, and now me, too. My parents divorced and so I’m looking for my new home. I’ve got great qualifications – I like being with other friendly dogs and have lived with cats; I’m gentle with kids, have good house manners, not a big barking gal, leash trained, and have what humans call “an even temperament.” Sound good? Well, here’s what I really want to tell you: I like companionship and, if I do say so myself, I’m good at it. I like to hike, run, go for car rides, and, most of all, I love having a home. I’m a 45-pound black lab mix female, sometimes a little shy at first, but I just know we could be friends…and maybe family!

Hi… my name is Austin.

Adopted October 19, 2015

I’m a happy guy who’s looking for someone to share the good times. People say I’m smart and that’s great, but it turned out I was “too much” for the senior community where I was living and so now I’m here, ready to make new friends. I’m a 4-year-old male, warm tan with white markings, and one look in my big brown eyes will tell you that I’ve got lots of love to give. As a Lab/Shepherd mix, I have good qualities from both breeds—I’m a loyal, playful fellow who really enjoys the company of people. Thanks to my smarts, I know how to be a good dog, and thanks to my personality, I know how to have fun! Let’s have a meet and greet, and see how happy we can be together!

Hi… my name is Star,

Adopted August 4, 2016

Star has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

My brother and I were puppies found in the desert. We stayed with our rescuers for several months, living outside until we moved here, where the volunteers have taught me so much! Now I know commands like “sit,” “stay,” “down,” and even earned my AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate! I’m a young Boxer/Lab/Staffie mix male, 52 pounds, and my friends call me handsome—in part because of my sleek black coat with the white star on my neck—and a fun companion for walks, playing ball, and belly rubs. (I’ll try to make those belly rubs fun for you, too, okay?) I’m super grateful to those who helped me become the terrific dog I am today, and all I ask from you is a chance to show you how great we could be together.

Hi… my name is Cloud,

Adopted August 4, 2016

Cloud has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate.

My brother and I were found in the desert when we were just puppies. We stayed with our rescuers for several months, living outside until we moved here, where the volunteers have taught me so much! Now I know commands like “sit,” “stay,” “down,” and even earned my AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate! I’m a young Boxer/Lab/Staffie mix male, 47 pounds, and my friends call me handsome—thanks to my sleek black coat with snowy white markings—and a fun companion for walks, playing ball, and receiving belly rubs. (I’ll try to make those belly rubs fun for you, too, okay?) I’m super grateful to those who helped me become the terrific dog I am today, and all I ask from you is a chance to show you how great we could be together.

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.
