Pacho

Hi… my name is Pacho.

My dad died last year, and although my mom tried to keep my poodle friend and me with her, when she had to move to a smaller place, she just wasn’t able to take us along. Mom was awfully sad to let me go, and said, “He’s a lover who will lick you to death then show you where the silver is hidden,” so I guess that means that I pretty much never met a stranger I didn’t like! I’m a red Heeler mix boy and in addition to getting along with Andy, I lived with five cats, so I can, as they say, ”do it all!” Actually, I’ve never lived with kids, but I’m sure that if they were polite and gentle, I’d think they were fine, too. Now might be just the time to think of adding a new love to your life, so I’d be happy to be the one!

Note: Because of my age I qualify for TALGV’s Senior Vet-Care-for-Life program.

Buddy Boy

Hi… my name is Buddy Boy.

I was adopted on March 23, 2014.

Sometimes you wonder why people bring pets into their lives and then leave them in a yard to amuse themselves. I’m sure my mom (who recently died) loved me, but she never spent much time in training me, so now I’m hoping that I’ll finally find someone who will recognize my potential and make that investment. My mom’s son said, “Buddy is a good dog; he just needs some training,” and I’m here to tell you that I’m 100% in agreement with that statement! I do know the basics — sit, stay, and down — and I love to play fetch and chase a Frisbee, so with some patient guidance, I know I can be the pal you’re looking for. I’m a medium size white and tan Staffie mix who will be with you through thick and thin after you’ve made the commitment to my education.

Harleigh

Hi… my name is Harleigh.

I was adopted on May 25, 2014.

My dad went into a memory care facility and my long-time girlfriend, Honey, and I were left alone in our home for several weeks. We had a yard and a doggie door and a neighbor who came to feed us, but we were still awfully lonely so we were really glad when TALGV came to our rescue. We’re living with a foster mom at the moment, and she really thinks it important that we be adopted together because we’ve become so dependent on each other. I’m a 56-pound Border collie mix lady who is in terrific shape for my age (I still love to play ball — a border collie trait if there ever was one!), and if you’ll let me, I’d like to sleep on the bed with you, too! We’re both housebroken, good with kids, and just generally laid-back girls, so I know that we’d be a great addition to any family.

P.S. Because of my age I qualify for TALGV’s Senior Vet-Care-for-Life program.

Honey

Hi… my name is Honey.

I was adopted May 25, 2014.

My dad went into a memory care facility and my long-time girlfriend, Harleigh, and I were left alone in our home for several weeks. We had a yard and a doggie door and a neighbor who came to feed us, but we were still awfully lonely so were really glad when TALGV came to our rescue. We’re living with a foster mom at the moment, and she really thinks it is important that we be adopted together because we’ve become so dependent on each other. I’m a plus-size collie/Chow mix lady who, despite my size, loves to cuddle and give kisses. I’m on a Jennie Craig diet at the moment, so when I get back down to a “misses” size, I’ll be able to snuggle with you even more! Harleigh and I are both housebroken, good with kids, and just generally a laid-back girls, so I know that we’d be a great addition to any family.

Socks

Hi… my name is Socks.

In December 2012 I was dropped in the yard of winter visitors who had just arrived, and they’ve been feeding me ever since. Well, when they were heading back home for the summer, they didn’t want to see me abandoned again, they brought me to TALGV. While I lived with them they said that I loved to rub against legs, play with their two cats (they said we were “best pals”!), and that I adored to be petted and brushed. Unfortunately, I’ve been found to be FIV positive, which means that I need to be the only cat in your life (although I could live quite nicely with another FIV positive cat, and there just happens to be one here named Suttles!). I’m a handsome brown and white tabby gentleman, and all I need is that special someone who will show me the love that I crave. I’m hopeful that’s you!

Pee Wee

Hi… my name is Pee Wee.

Adopted January 2, 2015.

Arrived March 21, 2013.

Max

Hi… my name is Max.

Adopted June 17, 2014.

I was a kitten when a young family with three kids and two dogs adopted me. Everything was great until my brother and I started having territorial issues, so they felt it best that I find a new home. I went to live with a couple, but that didn’t work out because I wanted to play, play, play, and they didn’t have enough time for that. So, I’m hoping the “third time’s a charm” for me! I’m an orange tabby guy who got along with everyone (except my brother!) and am generally a gentle, quiet guy. I’ve been known to get on furniture and give the old counter-jump a try, but that’s actually pretty standard behavior for a cat! I hear that there are actually a lot of people who really LIKE to have a furry friend on the sofa or chair next to them, so if you’re one of them, I’ll bet we’d get along just fine!

Tala

Hi… my name is Tala.

I was adopted July 29, 2014.

I arrived at TALGV as a kitten, was adopted by a warm-hearted older man in no time, and we had a wonderful life together until he died. I stayed with a friend of his afterward, but she had four cats and we just never got along. I then went to live with a single lady for a while, and she said that I was lovable and adored attention, loved playing with strings, small toys, and those fascinating rings from milk cartons. She had a cat, too, and although we got along “okay,” she said that I’d prefer being the only feline in the home. Like all cats, I do need to stretch my legs, so since I’m an indoor-only kind of gal, I’m hoping you have a cat tree or scratching post or two where I can do my daily calisthenics. If you give me that (and love!), I’ll give you lots of the same in return!

Pepper

Hi… my name is Pepper.

Adopted August 28, 2015

Pepper comes with Free Vet Care for Life.

After many years, my owner moved and was unable to take me, or my sister, Sierra, with her. We’re beautiful shepherd mix females who were assigned to guard our home, but when our “job” wasn’t needed, we lived outside in a small yard. We are both very outgoing and responsive, come when called, obey the “go to bed” command, and even though we’ve been outside dogs, we’ve proven ourselves here in respecting our “home area” by using our doggie door, so I know we’d be happy finally being indoor/outdoor dogs! We don’t “do” other dogs or cats well, but we’re super people and kid friendly. We’ve been together all our lives, so if you have space and a big heart, you’ll be rewarded with two awesome companions and protectors (who come with Free Vet Care for Life!).

Suttles

Hi… my name is Suttles,

Adopted 12-16-16

Suttles is FIV Posiive and comes with FREE Vet Care for Life

Yoohoo out there! It’s about time someone took a gander at me! I’m a handsome, friendly and very sweet guy who loves to be petted. I lived with my mom and several other cats until she moved and left us in her yard and the neighbors brought us to TALGV. Unfortunately, I’ve tested positive for FIV, but please don’t let that scare you away because I’m an otherwise healthy guy (who comes with Free Vet Care for Life) and may never have any symptoms. I could live very nicely with another FIV-positive cat, so I’m dreaming of someone who will love me for my sweet personality and cuddly ways who’ll discover that “special needs” cats often have even more to offer than most in the loving department!

Rosa

Hi… my name is Rosa.

Siblings are SUPPOSED to get along, but I guess there are times even with humans when that isn’t so! My sister and I were adopted from TALGV when we were puppies, but when she started seriously picking on me, I decided that the dogs next door were much nicer companions, so I went to visit them (over the fence!) every day. Well, bringing me back got a bit trying, so my people decided I needed a new home where the dogs were gentle and peaceful like me. I’m beautifully behaved, am smart as a whip, know lots of commands, and am an all-around wonderful girl. I’m a black Lab mix girl who loves people, but have never been around cats or kids. I’m the kind of gal who wants to be near you during thunderstorms, but then I like to be near you all the time, so won’t you give me one more chance at a happy life?

Percy

Hi… my name is Percy.

Adopted November 25, 2014.

My mom said I was named Percy because my eyes were so wide when I was just a “runty boy.” Hmm…not quite sure about the connection there, but that’s the deal! She did say that I need a special kind of love — one that’s not “too loud or flashy” because I really get stressed when there’s a lot of “stuff” going on. I am a very sweet, laid back, 6-year-old orange tabby who LOVES to be petted and sleep in your bed (under the covers, if you’ll let me!). I need quiet affection and no other competition — “the sole companion for a person with a sensitive, gentle disposition” they say. I don’t “do” kids well and have never been around dogs, so I’m certain an older, “Green Valley-type person” (you know who you are!), would be just the ticket for me! If you give me your love, I will give it back in spades!
