Smokey

Hi… my name is Smokey,

Adopted 3-11-17

One night, way past bedtime—about 1:30 a.m.—I was out with my dog friend, Ember. We were lost, running down the road without knowing where to go, so I was greatly relieved when we ended up here (courtesy of the police). I’m a Heeler mix female, almost 2 years old, a real sweetie at 36 pounds. My coat is a beautiful black with some white, very soft, and I hope you think I’m cute, but the best part of me is on the inside. I’m very loving—even giving kisses if you like—and playful; I say toys are good; treats are great! And what do I dream about? A home with you! Make me yours and my whole world will revolve around you. How about we start making each other happy today!

Ember

Hi… my name is Ember,

Adopted 4-10-17

Very late one night—about 1:30 a.m.—my dog friend, Smokey, and I were found running on Duval Mine Road. We didn’t know where we were going, so when we ended up here, safe and sound (courtesy of the police), it was a great relief. I’m a Heeler mix male, about 50 pounds and 18 months old, and I love making new friends. (Maybe that’s how I ended up with Smokey, although we don’t know.) When people come to see me, I’m delighted to receive their attention; my focus is totally on the person who notices what a good dog I am, capable of great loyalty. Young and playful, I’m eager to learn what you could teach me. And while they say I’m handsome and charming, what I most want to be is yours.

Titus

Hi… my name is Titus,

Adopted 4-18-18

“Very loving, affectionate, beautiful!” That’s what my former family said about me. So why am I here? Well, I’m not good with livestock, so if you have livestock at home, I’m not for you. They also said I’d “never been a fan of cats” and wasn’t good with small dogs. But the report changed completely when the subject was children. My former people said I “love kids.” There were three in the family and I “was always following them around as their babysitter and guardian.” Another important note: I lived outside, but they let me inside at night and reported “no accidents.” I’m a 4-1/2-year-old, rust and white Staffie mix male with beautiful blue eyes that try to tell you what a good boy I’d be for you. Will you give me the chance?

Gemini

Hi… my name is Gemini,

Adopted 2-19-17

My four sisters and I were “unwanted puppies.” Luckily for us, TALGV people say they don’t even know what that means—that we’re all wanted and loved! And here’s something else I’ve learned: Being a puppy is the definition of having fun! Plus, we’re good at all kinds of puppy things, like running, jumping, rolling over, and pulling your shoelaces. We also eat well and grow without even trying! I’m Gemini—a female with a white coat and dark gray eye patches, ears, spots, and a very pretty face. I sure hope you love one of us. Okay, honestly, I hope it’s me, but won’t you come see us all? And if you have the time and patience for a puppy, maybe you can give me the best gift ever: My very own home!

Hi… my name is Pisces,

Adopted 2-3-17

And here’s something else I’ve learned: Being a puppy is the definition of having fun! We’re already good at lots of puppy things, like running, jumping, rolling over, playing all day, and pulling your shoelaces. We also eat well and grow without even trying! I’m Pisces—a female with a mainly white coat, some gray speckles and gray ears, and allover sweet. I sure hope you love one of us. Okay, honestly, I hope it’s me, but won’t you come see us all? And if you have the time and patience for a puppy, maybe you can give me the best gift ever: My very own home!

Kara

Hi… my name is Kara,

Adopted 2-7-17

Thanks for looking at my pictures. My biography is under construction. Please stop back again to read about me or… even better… stop in at TALGV to meet me soon. Kennels are open 10-2 every day.

Brooklyn

Hi… my name is Brooklyn,

Adopted 4-21-17

Whew! My life has undergone so many changes lately, my head’s been spinning! First, my former family and I moved, my living area going from spacious to small, then they became very busy and there wasn’t time for me. Finally, they decided that the best thing for me would be a new home. So I’m here, scared and nervous at first, but happy to be enjoying lots of my favorite things again: I love treats, toys, walks (I’m very good on a leash) and especially the company of a kind person. I’m a very sweet 6-year-old Boxer mix female, a nice size at just 37 pounds, and when I look up at you with my big brown eyes, I hope you see the great friend I could be. How about we try that today?

Ace

Hi… my name is Ace,

Adopted 3-5-17

I was rescued by a volunteer who saw me chasing an SUV on Duval Mine Road near the TALGV entrance. But these days, I don’t have to run after friends because kind people come to me. I go for walks with volunteers—they like the way I sit to get ready and walk well on the leash, and they compliment me on being a very handsome 4-year-old Lab mix male, mainly black with white touches, looking good now (although a bit thin at 55 pounds on arrival). Shy at first, I’m a fast learner and soon warm to kindness. So won’t you please come for a visit? You might just find that I’m the loyal, loving companion you want in your life, and I I’ll do my best to make you glad I’m yours.

Donny

Hi… my name is Donny,

Adopted 2-10-17

My puppy sister, Marie, and I were relinquished—which we’ve learned is a big word for “given up.” But please don’t feel sad for us because we are two happy puppies! We have our own suite here (they call it a crate, but when you’re still little and have all this space with a bed and room service—it feels like a luxury suite). And we play all day! Plus, people stop by to ooh and aah, telling us how cute we are. I’m just 2 months old, 6-1/2 pounds and growing, a Staffie/Aussie mix male with a handsome brindle coat and sweet face, and if you think I’m adorable, well, the feeling could be mutual! How about we meet today and see if we should be spending all of our tomorrows happily together!

Orion

Hi… my name is Orion,

Adopted 4-22-18

Orion has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

“Give this dog a chance. I promise you’ll love him!” My foster folks said that about me after we spent a week together. I’m a Deaf dog, so they had fun learning my sign language, and we all fell in love with each other except their other dog, that didn’t want me around. So, Foster Mom left messages for you about me, and here’s part of what she wrote: “This dog is amazing! Housetrained…good in a crate…loves other dogs and cats…very good at reading others to figure out how they want to play…at home he didn’t bark once…good when he slept with us—no messes, no fussing…he’s a very smart boy.” I’m a 3-year-old male, yearning to give you my whole happy heart. So what do you say—will you give me a chance?

Tommy

Hi… my name is Tommy,

Adopted 2-6-17

Guess where I was found? Behind a vet clinic, lost and scrounging for food. That was a lucky location and, honestly, it was time my luck changed. X-rays at that clinic indicated a fractured pelvis in my past (back when I was a really little puppy), probably from being hit by a car. Fortunately, it healed in a useable manner. Some people may notice a limp, but I get along just fine. I hope you’ll let me show you because then maybe we could play and that’s one of my favorite things. I’m a very loving, sweet Heeler mix male, 8 months old, brown, and 35 pounds. Cars still scare me, but being near people makes me very happy. Take me home and I’ll do my best to make you very happy, too!
