Hi… my name is Annie,
Adopted with Raven 10-31-18
Belly rubs! I live for belly rubs! That, and of course the attendant head and chin scratches that go along with them! My people (a senior couple) didn’t leave a whole lot of information about me when they relinquished me (they did say I lived with another cat but not how well we got on), but the volunteers are finding that although at the moment I’m quite “shy and retiring” as the saying goes, I really do love (and crave) “hands on” attention. I’m a charming 8-year-old dilute torti with a gentle soul who’ll no doubt appreciate a quiet new home where I can spend many long hours sharing life’s pleasures and napping in sunbeams.

Hi… my name is Zeus (aka Spot),
Adopted 11-6-18
My history includes a scary monsoon storm, a divorce, then an unpleasant encounter with another dog, but also lots of friends—including some other animals—and years of a happy home life. So I’m optimistic! You could say I’m a dog with a dream—one that starts with meeting someone special like you, and showing you why I’m called “a truly great dog.” A fun buddy at playtime, I know several commands, walk well on a leash, and ride well in a car. I’ve been good with kids (ages 8 and up) and some other dogs; even lived with cats in the past! A handsome 6-year-old Staffie male, naturally sweet and affectionate, I’m also house trained and crate trained. And if you give me the loving home I’m dreaming about, I’ll give you my whole heart forever.

Hi… my name is Dolores,
Adopted 6-2-18
I was found in the desert near the mines—all kinds of dangers for a puppy out there, and I did need medical care when rescued. Fortunately, that went very well and today I’m enjoying all kinds of puppy fun. My wonderful foster mom sings my praises: “Dolores is a gem,” she said, adding that I’m extremely smart, rarely bark, happy to sleep in my crate and a great eater. She takes me walking on a leash, reports that housebreaking is progressing, and that I’ve “shown no signs of being anything other than a lovely little puppy.” Awww, thanks foster Mom! I was 15 pounds at 4 months, a tan Shepherd mix female, and if you have time and big love to give, I’d love to be your puppy today and your companion forever.

Hi… my name is Lollie,
Adopted 9-28-18
Comes with Free Vet Care for Life.
Don’t ever let them tell you a gal’s too old for a spa-like “makeover!” Well, that’s what I got when I arrived at TALGV after my mom died because my grooming had been woefully neglected for a very long time (my coat was completely matted and my nails were growing into my paws!). Right now I’m sporting a “lion cut,” but when it grows out I’ll be the gorgeous, longhaired Siamese/Himalayan mix I’m meant to be. I’m a totally sweet, 10-year-old lady who ADORES attention (well, just being with you!) and since I’m “on the older side,” I qualify for free vet care, so now’s the time to bring me home and watch the transformation!

He is loyal and friendly, loves to walk, and is very smart. There is no adoption fee for this wonderful dog.
If you will welcome Maleish into a loving home as part of your family, please call Marilyn any time at 517-304-6946.

Hi… my name is Marley,
Adopted 2-25-20
Has earned his Canine Good Citizen certificate
“A wonderful, loving, good boy.” That’s what my friend said after I spent a week with his family. Plus this: “Great with kids, ages 12 and 13; great with our 6-year-old female German Shepherd.” So what went wrong? Cats. I cannot live with cats. I have some food protection issues, too, but the cats were the deal-breaker. My friend was really sad to say good-bye—even wrote a report on what an awesome dog I am, saying that I’m leash trained, good in the house when the owner is gone, know commands, and love everything. It’s true—I love fetch, affection, and just being with people because I have a ton of love to give. I’m a gorgeous, fun-loving boy, and if you’ll give me a chance, I’ll happily bring joy to your days.

Hi… my name is Big Buddy,
Adopted 11-3-18
Has earned his Canine Good Citizen certificate.
I’ve lived up to my name wholeheartedly—weighing about 80 pounds on arrival here and having been a good buddy, protective and devoted, to the single woman at home. But she’s moving and can’t take me along, so sadly gave me up. She says I’ve been a great and gentle companion; leash, crate and house trained, and I like to play. (Hide-and-seek with treats is a favorite.) I’ve not met many other dogs, but do protect my toys and food from other animals and children. Since puppyhood—I’m a 3-year-old Lab mix male—I’ve lived with one woman, and she says a gentle voice and patience work best with me. And we both say you can call me whatever name you choose, as long as you’re my buddy and let me be yours.

Hi… my name is Scrumptious,
Adopted 6-4-18
I’m betting you’ve heard “the ayes have it” after an affirmative vote, so I’m here to tell you that in my case, “the EYES have it!” Their gorgeous sea-green color makes my glossy black fur just pop, so whoever designed me sure had “wow!” in mind! Spending time outdoors is pretty much always fun for humans, but for me it was mighty scary until I was rescued, so a safe home, a warm lap, yummy food and love galore will put all my fears of the wild to rest. I’m only about 2 years old and a total lovebug, so I’m dreaming of spending all the rest of the many I have ahead with you!
