Hi… my name is Lucie Lu.

I was adopted July 20, 2014.
Thank goodness for Good Samaritans! I was just about to be taken to “the pound” by my owner (because he was unable to walk me any longer!), when a TALGV volunteer overheard the conversation and convinced him to relinquish me to him. That was MY lucky day, I can tell you! I’m a healthy, happy, smart, and affectionate  yellow Lab mix lady (with endearing Shar Pei-like ears!), and everyone agrees that I’ll be a wonderfully loving companion who will adapt beautifully to an active family. I don’t bark (at least no one has heard me yet!), am good with kids, and other dogs, so what’s stopping you? I know that if you come down to meet me you’ll be able to see all my sterling attributes for yourself!

Hi… my name is Thumper.

I was adopted July 27, 2014.

When your dad works for the Border Patrol, I guess you have to be prepared to move around a bit. Well, I was ready to go, but unfortunately, the place where dad was transferred didn’t allow pets, so he very sadly had to give me up. He said, “Thumper is a great dog, well behaved, smart, and loving, and I would have taken him with me in a heartbeat if I’d been able.” I know LOTS of commands — sit, stay, shake, speak, kennel (or “house”) — am perfectly house and leash trained (and have good “recall” even off leash), so you know I come with lots of super “bona fides.” I’m a young Rottie/shepherd mix boy who just wants another person (or an active family) to shower my affection on.

Hi… my name is Katie.

I was adopted July 7, 2014.

I guess all pet owners hope that they’ll outlive their companions, but that doesn’t always happen. My dad was a loyal supporter of TALGV for many years, so I’m sure he’d be happy knowing that I’m in good hands now.  I lived with him all of my life, so you know how close we were and how much I’ll miss him. His neighbors said, “Katie is a great dog and would be a wonderful companion to just about anyone but kids.” (I guess they felt that at my age, kids would be a bit too much for me to “take on” at this stage in life!) I’m a lovely tri-colored shepherd mix, and my dream is to find another quiet home where I can spend my golden years making one more human happy.
Katie qualifies for TALGV’s “Vet Care for Life” program.

Hi… my name is Shelby.

I was adopted July 12, 2014.

My “winter visitor” family adopted me from TALGV four years ago when my first owners relinquished me because of their health problems. I’ve made the annual trek back and forth to New Hampshire with them (and my best friend, Madi) ever since, but they now feel that the trip is too much for them with two fairly big dogs. I’m a delightful shepherd mix lady who just wants to be part of the action with you. So…if you’re looking for a leash- and house-trained “cuddler” (according to my mom) who loves to chase balls, play with other dogs in the dog park, knows lots of commands, and will be the love of your life, then that would be me! Come find out for yourself!

Hi… my name is Ginger.

It’s not that I didn’t love kids (mine), but I have to say I am SO happy that I won’t have raise any more! When I was found on Abrego Drive, it was obvious that I’d had a litter recently, but they were nowhere to be seen, so I hope some good soul found homes for them. I’m a 20-pound, round-about 4-year-old, “Puggle” mix (that’s Pug and Beagle in case you didn’t figure it out!), and I’m super fond of people (and probably kids too), walk well on a leash, am housetrained, and just generally a wonderfully sweet lady. Given that I’ve been around the block a few times, I’m going to be ever so happy to settle down with an active family who will let me have the rest of my years (and they’ll be quite a few!) enjoying their attentions and being the loving companion that I’m meant to be without the distractions of motherhood!

Hi… my name is Bandit.

Thanks for looking at my pictures. Please come back soon to see my story… but meantime you might want to come over to TALGV to meet me. My foster mom says I’m a fast learner and a very good boy!

Hi… my name is Maxine.

Adopted with Ceazar on May 16, 2015

My mom and dad got divorced and mom had to move to an apartment, and then to top it all off, dad lost his house, so there was no room for my lifetime companion, Ceazar, and me to stay with them. I’m a 62-pound German Shepherd mix lady who is housebroken, leash trained, and gets along with other dogs and cats. I’m gentle and obedient, and know lots of commands and because of my age, qualify for Free Vet Care for Life. I get a little carsick sometimes and those summer thunderstorms make me anxious, but other than that, I’m the perfect, laid-back companion. Since I’ve always lived with and depend on Ceazar, TALGV has agreed that we should go to a new home together. I’m a mellow, well-mannered girl (Mom said I was a “real joy”!) who needs a quiet home where I can be your new best friend.

Maxine and Ceazar come with TALGV’s “Vet Care for Life Program”
