Hi… my name is Sunny.

I was adopted July 15, 2014.

Several months ago I was the victim of a “hit and run” driver, but fortunately, someone DID stop and bring me here. After extensive surgery, I had to relearn how to stand, run (first!) and then walk. But that was then, and this is now, and as far as I’m concerned, I have “regular” legs just like anyone else! Okay, I might be a bit gimpy at times, but even if you think of that as a “flaw” (I don’t!), I more than make up for it in spunk and courage. I’m a Chihuahua boy whose main goal is life is to spend as much time as possible in your lap — in addition to maybe getting a few “therapeutic” massages now and then. If that sounds like a plan, I’m your man!

Hi… my name is Sugar.

Adopted October 25, 2014.

Here’s my one wish in the world: when I “grow up” I want to be a lap dog! I’m only a pup but have led a pretty hard life, so I have a lot of catching up to do! I came to TALGV with a terribly infected eye (as you can see, it’s gone now, thank goodness) and two days later presented them with my (last!) brood of babies. I’m a whip-smart, medium-to-high energy, heeler/Lab mix girl (who prefers “the ladies” to the male of the species — something from my past, they think). I have nice leash manners and will bond very quickly with my new person, so if I can find someone who can spend lots of one-on-one of time with me, my life will be complete!

Hi… my name is Reno.

I was adopted July 24, 2014.

I’ve been getting to spend time with a foster mom and she has SO many good things to say about me! She says, “Reno is an energetic, fun-loving pup. He spends a good deal of time with our two big, female dogs, and he plays well and respects them. He’s crate-trained and “almost” housebroken.” She says I’m a “busy” boy (well, I’m still a puppy!), so I have a lot of energy to burn off (another dog to play with and a lively family would help with that!), but when I’m done, I really “crash!” They’re saying that I’m probably a Doxie/Chihuahua mix, but I think there’s some Min Pin “going on” too as I’ve got a lot of typical terrier energy. So if you’re into an active lifestyle, I want to join you!

Hi… my name is Shammie.

Adopted October 25, 2014.

Because we were so young, my siblings and I went into foster care shortly after we arrived and our human mom cared for us until we were old enough to find our own homes. My brother and I were adopted by a family with two kids, but sadly a divorce broke the family up, and we were just “too much to handle” during that painful process. My mom said that as a typical youngster, I loved games, attention, chasing my toys (and my brother!), and that I was a “great, happy, loving kitten.” I’m very young, and a captivating tabby and white boy, who is once again looking for my perfect place in life. I’m hoping it’s with you and that you’re right around the corner!

Hi… my name is Agatha.

Adopted October 15, 2014.
Since I arrived at TALGV, I have discovered that sitting on volunteers’ laps is quite nice, especially since I love to be brushed and have my forehead and ears scratched.  I also think watching the “birds and the bees” (and whatever else moves!) doing their respective things from a window or porch is simply heaven on earth. (I had an Arizona room in my old home that was my favorite spot.) Mom and dad moved to a townhome in South Carolina that I guess didn’t allow pets, so I’m back at my old alma mater after four years hoping I can find a quiet person or couple who have space in their lives (and hearts!) for me. I’m a beautiful golden brown, golden-eyed, tabby lady and I’m hoping that my ultimate home is right around the corner.

Hi… my name is Maisy.

Adopted February 25, 2015

I come with super references from my young family, but they were about to add another little human to the mix and had another BIG dog, so I was a bit more than they could manage. My mom said that I’m a sweet girl who loved to sleep with the kids, was good with other dogs, know sit, get down (off the bed — but I’d stay if you’d let me!), loved to ride in the car, and am perfectly housebroken. I’m a Staffie mix lady who is loving and eager to please, so if you’re looking for a really “special something” in your life, I just know I’ll warm the cockles of your heart! Oh, and the volunteers say that for anyone who always wanted a stocky pot-bellied pig, I snuffle and snort just like one without all the fuss!

Arrived May 20, 2014.
