Hi… my name is Corey,

Adopted 10-20-16

I’m a dog who loves people. As a calm, 5-year-old black Lab mix male, I’ve been the lucky recipient of love from people, too. Indeed, I was rescued from a tough situation because my rescuers considered me an “awesome” dog! However, to ‘fess up, while I love people, I don’t always love other dogs, especially other male dogs, and I’m not good with cats. Bottom line is that I should be your only pet. But please remember that people did not give up on me because I am an awesome dog! All I need to be happy is your attention; interacting with people is my strong suit. I’m crate-trained and leash-trained, and if I become yours, my whole world will revolve around you. Give me a chance and I’ll be your grateful dog forever!

Hi… my name is Blue Girl,

Adopted August 1, 2016

I was found on my own—lost, hungry, and not sure if I should trust a stranger. But after a kind lady fed me for a week, I decided it was safe to be her friend and that turned out to be a great decision because she brought me here, where there are lots of kind people and they all seem to really like me. They say that people tend to think Bulldogs are cute, cuddly and loveable, and I’m all three! They also tell me I’m very sweet, and all my positives come together to make me a great companion for people. I’m short but wide, around 75 pounds (might be good to drop a few), a 4-1/2-year-old happy female with a beautiful blue-grey coat. How about we find each other today?

Hi… my name is Tristan,

Adopted 1-10-17

You just never know where you’re going to land when you jump a fence! I was exploring a neighborhood in Madera Highlands when I hopped into a nice lady’s yard and the next thing you know, here I am! (Given that I’m one of the friendliest, purriest, guys around, I probably belonged to someone who didn’t realize the perils of the free-roaming life for cats and is now ruing my loss). Even though TALGV is the “Taj Mahal” of shelters, truth be told, since I’m a lover of the first order (like my namesake in the opera!) I really want to share that with humans not just other felines so why don’t you help me be sure my story has a happy ending?

Hi… my name is Meow Meow,

Adopted June 15, 2016

When my mom, her five kids, and my feline housemate moved in with her boyfriend, I seem to have taken an instant dislike to him and my previously impeccable manners took a bit of a nosedive. But Mom said before then, I was a totally gentle, sweet little girl who got along great with the kids, was extremely friendly, lovable, and adored lying on my back so she could give me tummy rubs. I can be a bit of a night owl (but so are most cats!), but it’s just to get your attention and let you know you how much I care, so won’t you please give me a second chance? At my tender age, I have years and years ahead of me to set your life aglow.

Hi… my name is Andy,

Adopted 9-8-17

Andy comes with Free Vet Care for Life

Phew! I now know what prisoners on death row who get a reprieve at the last minute feel like! My “crime” was not getting along with the resident cat (no problems with the dog!), so my people took me to a vet to be “sent over the rainbow bridge.” Thankfully, being a perfectly healthy gentleman, the vet referred them to TALGV, so here I am, counting my lucky stars every day! I lived with my people most of my life, and aside from wanting to be the only feline, was a perfectly behaved, happy-go-lucky guy. My blend of Siamese and silver tabby coloring gives me a certain sophistication, and that, combined with my maturity (and Free Vet Care for Life), will surely enchant just about anyone looking for a quiet companion!

Hi… my name is Mr. Duke,

Adopted 11-19-16

When I first arrived here, I ran out the door a couple times because I thought my family left me behind accidentally. Turned out they had moved to a rental home and couldn’t take me with them. We’d been together since I was a puppy 7 years ago, so this is a big change for me, but fortunately I’m a real friendly guy who’s ready to meet some great new people. I’m a handsome tricolored American Foxhound mix male, about 100 pounds. I’m leash trained but my companion walker should be strong like me. My former owners said I’m lovable and loyal. I’d be so glad to show you up close and personal that I’m just that—lovable and loyal—and will give you all my best if you’ll let me be yours.

Hi… my name is Taylor,

Adopted May 15, 2016

At just 11 pounds and 1 year old, you can imagine how scary it was for me to be wandering a busy street all alone. I was so relieved to be rescued by a caring person who kept me for a couple of weeks to see if anyone claimed me. In that time, my finder said, I enjoyed being with the two other small dogs in the home. The word used to describe me was “sweet,” and my friends at TALGV say the same thing; they call me their sweetie. They also sing my praises for qualities that come naturally to me—being friendly, playful, and loving. I’m an adorable little Chihuahua female looking forward to many happy years ahead. How about I spend them being the best little companion possible to wonderful you!
