Hi… my name is Rocky,

Adopted 12-22-17

Losing your job is bad enough, but after my mom lost hers, she had to move to a smaller, “no pets allowed,” apartment and that meant losing my housemates, Simon, Inky, and me too! It was especially hard on all of us because we’re loving, outgoing felines who enjoyed each other’s company and simply adored mom. Yes, I know, I don’t have a very feminine name, but I guess it’s better than “Wacky,” which I was saddled with originally because I was such a rambunctious kitten! Well now I’m a talkative, 2-year-old crawl-in-your-lap kind of girl who’s super playful and loves cuddles. Given my outgoing nature, it won’t be long before I’ll be showering my affection on some wonderful new person in my life. Maybe you?

Hi… my name is Tango,

Adopted with Keno 8-27-17

I guess someone had dancing on their mind when my littermates, Twist, Jitterbug, and I were named! We were just wee little things when we arrived so went to live with a foster mom until we “made weight” and could come to TALGV to show off our wares. Well, we’ve been languishing here for a while now because there’s just so much competition in the kitten department, but spend some time with any of us (sit down and let us do our kitten thing in your lap!), and you’ll wonder how we got overlooked! “Kitten” pretty much says it all, so why not take two ‘cause we’d be twice the fun!

Hi… my name is Max,

Adopted 8-25-17

There are tiny doggies and then there’s me: A 140-pound, 6-year-old brindle Mastiff male. Take me for a walk and strangers may smile and wave, apparently so impressed by my size. But I’m used to it—I just grew this way! Plus, for years I’ve lived with Oreo, a 32-pound Bassett Hound, so I know how to share my space. I’m a sweet, easy-going guy, but remember the big part—a strong walker on your end of the leash is a good idea. I need a new home due to the health concerns of our former person, who left word that I’ve been gentle and tolerant with youngsters (ages 6-17), am leash trained, and “ask” to go outside. So if there’s room for a big love in your life, I’m the guy for you.

Hi… my name is Chucky,

Adopted 8-11-17

One thing I’ve learned for sure: Tough times can make you appreciate good times all the more. Last spring, I was hit by a car. My pelvis and both hind legs were broken, but after some great medical care, today I’m a happy, active, super charming guy. Granted, I’m minus one rear leg, but I get around fine—leash-trained, housebroken, and eager to give attention and affection to every kind person I meet. I’m little and young, just 6-1/2 pounds and 1 year old, with a soft golden brown and white coat, and cuddling skills second to none. Cute as a button, I’m a Chihuahua mix male who won’t get much bigger, but I’m sure life is going to get better and better for me—especially if I can spend it all with you.

Hi… my name is Yogi,

Adopted 9-10-18

I used to live outside all the time. Oh, I learned to cope, but the comforts and company of living inside are truly appealing. (I do love a pool, so some outside time can be fun.) I’m 7 years old—lots of living still to do—but my people are moving and can’t take me along. We’ve been together since I was a puppy, so it’s a big change, but there’s a bright side: I know how to be a loving companion and I certainly love receiving attention, so this is my big chance for more of that! I’m an Akita/Lab mix male, about 65 pounds, with a beautiful rust and white coat. I’m leash-trained, have lived with other dogs, know some commands, and will live happily ever after if you make me yours.

Hi… my name is Socho,

Adopted 12-21-17

You know it’s really tough when you’ve lived with one person all your life and then they’re not there anymore. My beloved dad is now in hospice care, and I do miss him awfully, but after being at TALGV for just a while, I’m finding that other humans can be pretty interesting and loving, too. I’m a 7-year-old, über-handsome longhaired grey boy, but since I’ve never been around other pets or kids, everyone pretty much agrees that I’d probably like to be a one-person companion again. That doesn’t mean that I’m an old fuddy-duddy, ‘cause I love string toys and have tons of energy, so I’m saving it all up for just you! Come check me out and see all I’ve got to offer!

Hi… my name is Darcy,

Adopted 8-6-17

I’ve experienced some big changes in my young life. My owner died, his family couldn’t keep me, a kind friend fostered me for a few weeks, and now I’m here. But I’m still a typical puppy—fun-loving, cute, and energetic. Plus I have special qualities that make me who I am: I’m smart (catch on to most training quickly), love to play in water (like a wading pool) and cuddle with people (sometimes I think I’m littler than I am). When fostered, I got along with three small dogs and loved to play; my foster people called me “a very kind and patient dog.” An 8-month-old Staffie female, 36 pounds, a beauty in black and white, I love almost everyone I meet. Make me yours and I’ll love you most of all and always!

Hi… my name is Biggs,

Adopted 4-14-18

The volunteers gave me a close going over when I arrived here, noticing an injured toenail, missing skin from a paw pad (I walked some hot paths when I was lost), and they called me skinny—which meant more kibble in my dish. Even better, they called me gentle and sweet. I want everyone to know that being a loving, loyal companion is my highest aspiration, so I keep on being friendly, trying to please my person on the leash, learning their words, and generally being the kind of good dog who gets a good home. I’m a 2-year-old, 51-pound, tan and white Staffie mix male, and you might kindly say I’m cute. I know what it is to be lost and hungry. Will you teach me what it is to have a home?
