Hi… my name is Tuxedo (aka Tux),

Adopted October 7, 2016

When your bona fides include “affectionate, mellow, not demanding, adapts well to all situations, no health problems, and wonderful companion,” then you know that you’re going to get a real winner when you adopt me! My dad had to move to another one of those “no pets allowed” places (they ought to be outlawed!), so now I’m on the lookout for another family to wow with my gentle and loving ways. As a 7-year-old boy, I’m really just getting started in life, so I’ll bet we could spend years and years getting to know each other and making many happy memories. I know I’m ready, so I’m double-daring you to come by, meet me, and see if you can resist my charms!

Adopted 1-18-17

MARKIE is a 3-year old male, Chihuahua/corgi mix.  He is neutered and up to date on his shots.  He will do best with a little lady dog or even better, as the only dog – Top Dog as he likes to think of it.  Markie is a love bug and enjoys being spoken to, sitting on a lap or up against you.  He chases a cat that runs from him but ignores another one.  Markie walks well on a leash and is well behaved when you pick him up to run in a store or stop at a stand, etc.  He isn’t into other dogs; he pretty much ignores them. He loves his person and those times when you can’t take him with you, he will be watching out from the window for your return. There is no adoption fee.

If you will welcome Markie into a loving home as part of your family, please call Marilyn between 8 AM and 8 PM at 517-304-6946.

Hi… my name is Maggie,

Adopted August 7, 2016

Maggie comes with Free Vet Care for Life.

I’ve definitely had a patch of bad luck in the human department! My first mom died after I’d been with her for several years, and then the lady who adopted me next became ill and wasn’t able to care for me, so you can understand why I have hopes as high as the sky that my next move will be my last! I’m a sweet declawed 13-year-old (so come with Free Vet Care for Life), who loves to sit in sunny windows or follow you around and join in your daily routine. At the odd moment, I even have the urge to chase a toy around the house, but mostly I like to take it easy and revel in life’s simple pleasures. If quiet is your thing, you and I were meant to be!

Hi… my name is Toby Boy,

Adopted May 7, 2016

After I went on an unscheduled jaunt away from home (sometimes called an “escape”), my people decided I should find a new place to live—especially because they want to raise rabbits, and I was not good with that. I do have lots of great qualities—I’m leash trained, know “sit,” love to go on car rides, and thoroughly enjoy just being with my person. Your attention means the world to me, so I can be your good dog and also your fun guy because I’m playful, bright and brave. I’m a very handsome (so they tell me) in my soft brown and tan coat with white markings, I’m a 3-year-old Boxer mix male, about 63 pounds, who’s dreaming of another trip—this time to a place called home with a wonderful someone like you!

Hi… my name is Gilroy,

Adopted 8-13-17

Gilroy has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

I was a TALGV baby! My nine siblings and I were born here on 7/26/15. (Yes, mom was amazing!) We were each adopted, but then things changed for my new family and they didn’t have time for me. They said I was a great dog, gentle with the kids, but they wanted me to have the attention a dog deserves. If that means someone who’ll play with me, love me, and cuddle on a regular basis, I say that sounds like pure happiness! I’ve been getting ready—recently earning my AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate, which means I’m a star in the behavior department! I’m a black and white male with some speckles, 70+ pounds—every ounce adorable—and I really want to be someone’s good and happy dog. Could you be the one?

Hi… my name is Max,

Adopted August 17, 2016

Along with my shepherd buddies Tim and Lady, I’m learning there is a big wonderful world out there! Before being taken in by TALGV, we lived in kennels our entire lives, so you can imagine how excited we are when given the chance to experience life outside the kennel. We need help learning to relax around new people, but I’ve discovered it’s so worth it, especially when that person gives belly rubs and ear scratches. I’m a Shepherd mix male, roughly 70 pounds, black and tan with touches of white, and only about 2 years old so I’ve got lots of living yet to do. How about you help me become the best dog I can be and I work hard at being your faithful companion, and we take our future happy trails together?

Hi… my name is Bruce.

Adopted 6-16-17

Although I may not be a purebred Border collie (something else good is “going on” in there!), I have many traits of that breed (smart as a whip, energetic, and loving) and I need a “job” to do to keep my mind (and body) occupied! My people adopted me two years ago when I was just six weeks old, and they thought they’d have lots of time for my education, but with four kids ranging in age from 13 years down to 10 months, I sort of got short shrift on that score. But I’m ever so willing to learn, and I’m hoping for an ACTIVE family who has had experience with guys like me who can channel my energies into the good kind of behavior. I’m perfectly housebroken, and mom says that I’m a sweet dog who is tremendously lovable, so I know with just a few months of focused attention and training I’ll be perfect!
