Hi… my name is Bubbles,

Adopted 7-29-17

Our family moved far, far away—overseas—so I need a new home. Sherlock, my 92-pound Boxer buddy, and I got along with each other and were both gentle and tolerant with the kids (ages 4 and 6), but he’s adopted now. I’m a 9-year-old Terrier mix female, calm and peaceful, and I loved those kids and their parents, too—people of all ages. My family described me as simply “the sweetest dog,” and I’d also love to be called your lap dog. (Cuddling is one of my favorite activities.) My virtues are many: I’m leash-trained, crate-trained, and housebroken; a well-behaved companion at home, on walks and car rides. I’m ready to love you. Won’t you please be the one to see the great little friend I’ll be forever?

Hi… my name is Lucy,

Adopted 7-7-17

As a dog who truly loves people, I was sorry to say good-bye to my person, but he has a serious health issue and can’t take care of us anymore. “Us” is Mr. White and me. He’s my big buddy—the 91-pound Shepherd I’ve been living with, and I’m a tan and white 19-pound Chihuahua mix female, 5-years-10-months old, with the cutest little ears ever. Obviously, I’ve gotten along with other dogs and I’m especially sweet with people. I think easy-going walks are fun and enjoy the chance to occasionally stop and smell the roses. Oh, I like to play, too, but being your lap dog—cuddling with you on a regular basis—would be my idea of the good life. Will you please give me the chance to be your loving companion forever?

Hi… my name is Sundae,

Adopted 6-12-17

My siblings and I were born and found living under a trailer. Our little spot was in the shade, but not a place where we could grow up, and the person nearby already had several dogs. So we came here; happy, fun-loving puppies ready for life’s next big adventure! We’re already very good at puppy things—eating, playing, rolling on top of each other—and with time, patience and attention from loving people, we can also become good at the things that will someday make us delightful, well-trained grown-up dogs. (In the meantime, we expect to have lots of puppy-people fun, too!) I’m a black and tan female, 8.8 pounds at 7 weeks and growing, probably a Shepherd/Terrier mix. You may like all puppies, but please say I’m the one you want for keeps!

Jax

Hi… my name is Jax,

Adopted 7-29-17

Recently I spent a week with people who loved me but couldn’t keep me. The family included a teenager, a St. Bernard, and two cats. I got along with all of them—dog, cats, and people—so I could fit into any one of many different households. Those friends also said I know lots of commands, come when called, am housebroken and leash trained. Now, those are my official qualifications and they’re important, but I’m hoping you see lots more in me—the loving, playful guy who could quickly become your loyal, lifelong companion. I’m a sweet 8-month-old Shepherd/Boxer mix male, tan and white (including “white socks” paws), and I’d love to meet you up close and personal. If you’re the one who could love me forever—believe me, the feeling will be mutual!

Hi… my name is Suki,

Adopted 6-20-17

Comes with FREE Vet Care for Life

(Note: Bio needs revision.)  My best friend, Sammy, and I were left without a home when our person moved away. Thank goodness we have each other, and who knows? Maybe the best is yet to come for us! Granted, we’re all grown up, but being mature can be a very good thing. I’m a beautiful 8-year-old Husky mix female, 73 pounds, with a gorgeous black and white coat. I love to play, (especially with Sammy), go for walks, always enjoy belly rubs, being brushed, and I give lots of kisses! My former family said I was gentle with the kids (all ages visited), got along with other animals, and understand “sit,” “lay,” and “shake.” Sammy and I would like to stay together and if that’s okay in your home, we’ll double the love we give to you.

Hi… my name is Gunther,

Adopted 8-13-17

Gunther has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

Last fall, I arrived as a thin little puppy with scrapes and scratches on my face. Happily, I was soon adopted and my people said I was great with kids, but they brought me back for doing some puppy chewing at home. My TALGV friends have lots of good training ideas to get me through that stage and I’m doing so well, I’ve now earned my AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate—proof of my excellent manners! I make great eye contact with my person, can chill out pretty easily, and I’m very responsive to affection. Indeed, I’m so friendly, I can wag my whole body just to show how happy I am to see you! A 1-year-old male, 62 pounds, I’m ready to be your partner in fun for a long time to come.

Hi… my name is Gypsy,

Adopted 9-2-17

I was adopted as a sweet little puppy and today I’m a sweet 2-1/2-year old, but my people can’t keep me anymore. Their new Florida landlord says I can’t live with them there. So I’m going to give my heart to someone new and hope this time it’s forever! I’m a playful, loving, tan and white Staffie mix female, 27 pounds. I’ve not lived with children, but my former people said I was gentle and tolerant. I can jump high and do not get along with cats, but I love playing with my toys and sleeping with my blankie. I’m crate-trained, “ask” to go outside, behave well in the house, and do many other things just to please you. Give me the chance and I’ll be the best dog I can be for you.

Hi… my name is Ellie,

Adopted 7-1-17

A lady arrived to clean what she thought was a vacant house, but guess who was there? Two little dogs—Bernie and me! After that, we lived in a home with eight children and I was well behaved with those kids, but the landlord said it was too crowded. (Also, there was some trouble with dogs getting along, although we can’t say who instigated it.) In any event, this winding road brought me here and I’m pretty excited because friends say the next step is a forever home—a place full of love and happiness! Sounds perfect to me! I’m a tan 1-year-old female, 25 pounds, probably a Hound mix and definitely adorable. My legs are short, my body is long, and my biggest dream is a loving home with someone wonderful like you.

Hi… my name is Bernie,

Adopted 1-12-18

Give me a little time to get to know you and we could both be making a new friend. I’m a guy who was left abandoned in an empty rental home, and that rough beginning took its toll on my self-confidence. As a result, I may be “a lot of bark” when we first meet, but that’s all bluff and bluster. In a home environment, I can become my true self—relaxed, quiet, more than willing to share your couch. Shelter friends say I appear to be housebroken and definitely enjoy car rides. As for other dogs, I prefer females—they just bring out the best in me. I’m a slender, young adult Hound mix male, small to medium size, and if you give me a chance, I’ll be your happy, loyal companion forever!
