Lollie

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!

Maleish

Adopted 6-9-18

Maleish is a social and energetic 70-pound, 9-year-old male Shepherd/Greyhound mix that needs a new home since owners are unable to give him enough time. He is healthy, housebroken, uses doggy door, and asks to go out. He is good with other dogs, cats, and children. Maleish has been neutered and is up to date with his shots. 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.

Marley (CGC)

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.

Big Buddy

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.

Scrumptious

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!

Lowell

Hi… my name is Lowell,

Adopted 5-25-18

Lowell has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

I was found in the parking lot of a doctor’s office (a doctor for humans, that is). The story of how I came to be lost is unknown, and that’s okay by me. I’m a today-and-tomorrow kind of guy—eager, lively, looking for fun. Oh, if you tell me to sit, I’ll do it. My friends here say I’m smart and “trainable” (especially with treats). But I hope your word for me is “likeable,” maybe even “loveable.” The thing is, as much fun as I’m having here, every night I dream of the same thing: My forever home with a person or family of my own. I’m a 2-year-old Heeler/Hound mix male, 49 pounds, and I’d love to meet you, because I’m thinking we could make each other very happy for a very long time!

Lacey

Hi… my name is Lacey,

Adopted 8-7-18

My rescuer said when he found me, I’d apparently been out for a while and was tired. Oh, my yes! I’m a 5-1/2-year-old Chihuahua female, just 9 pounds, so being alone in the big wide world was scary every minute and there was no time to rest. Even after being rescued, I wasn’t sure how to tell friend from foe, so I made funny noises at everyone and cuddled down deeply in my new comfy bed. And I slept. What a relief! At first, I didn’t even want to go outside again, but gradually, fear is subsiding. I’ve received medical care, lots of gentle encouragement, and now I’m glad to be here—a safe place for dreaming of the best place ever: A loving home, where kindness abides. Will you make my dream come true?

Sassy

Hi… my name is Sassy,

Adopted 5-26-18

My finder wasn’t shopping for a black Lab at a local thrift store, but that’s where she found me! Hard to believe I was just left behind, but I had neither collar nor microchip, so I was good and truly lost. A 5-year-old female, about 64 pounds, I got along with my finder’s other dogs, but chased her cat. Other than that, she gave me lots of good reports—said I’m housebroken, people-friendly, smart, affectionate, and very sweet. Three kids visited, ages 4 to 10, and I was okay with them, too. Mind you, when first here, I was pretty anxious and some new dogs made me nervous. But human kindness and affection can work wonders. Today, I dare to dream that someone will choose me as their loving companion—someone wonderful like you!

Scoots

Hi… my name is Scoots,

Adopted 8-4-18

Note: Bio needs update.

For a “teenage mom” who was found foraging in the desert over a year ago, I’m a gentle girl at heart. My family said although I’d led a hard life, I was still playful and that I got along famously with their dogs but not their cats. So what I need now is a “cat free” home (a friendly dog might be OK), and person who’ll schmooze with me now and then. Although I tolerate the other cats here, they’re kinda getting on my nerves, so I’d love a home where I have my own space and can enjoy the freedom to explore the house or just hang out in a sunny window or on a lap. Won’t you give me a home where I can have the fun, easygoing life-style I’ve earned?

Palin

Hi… my name is Palin,

Adopted 11-4-18

Comes with Free Vet Care for Life

“You can’t buy love, but you can adopt it.” I’m living proof of that sign at the Animal League. I learned about love from my owner who adopted me as a puppy years ago, but now can’t take care of me anymore. Yes, it’s a surprising change for me—I loved being a great companion dog, but the volunteers assure me that I’m still that great dog. I ask to go outside, walk beautifully on a leash, and although a big guy—78 pounds—I’m an affectionate, sweet fellow who just wants you to be happy. A 9-1/2-year-old Shepherd mix, I’m a senior dog now and have Free Vet Care for Life. For me, the most exciting new thing in life will be you—the day you say we can go home together forever!
