Hi… my name is Chloe,
Adopted 7-3-17
“She likes to lick, so I call her 80-grit! She’s wonderful, sweet, posh, and sophisticated loves to snuggle, get belly rubs, and burrow and lounge next to you. She’s clean and even “grooms” her feather toy! With all those sterling qualities, you might wonder why my mom had to give me up. Well, her situation changed and she had to move back east to be with her family and, as often happens, cats weren’t allowed. You can bet there were many tears shed when she relinquished me, but she knew that TALGV would do its best to make sure I found another someone who appreciated me for my loving ways. At a smidge over 2 years old, just think of all the joy we can share!

Hi… my name is Sophia,
Adopted 4-23-17
Due to her own health issues, my former owner was worried about my well being and so decided that I should find a new home. Since I’m only 4 months old, that’s pretty much my story up to now, although I’m doing my best to get ready for fun times up ahead. I’m learning how to walk well on a leash along with other important puppy lessons—according to the volunteers, I’m intelligent and attentive, (you could say I’m all ears.) And, I’m happy to say, being a playful and loving pup just comes naturally to me. At slightly under 36 pounds, I’m a tan and white female who’s friendly and confident, but a wee bit lonely. My forever home can’t come too soon, so if that’s with you, can we please meet today!

Hi… my name is Lacey,
Adopted 7-8-17
Before coming here, I was fed by a stranger. Even then, I kept my distance, but needed the nourishment because my 6 puppies were depending on me. That kind man found homes for my babies, but worried about me because he was leaving for many months. Who would feed me? How would I stay safe? TALGV was the answer. Food, security, comfort—such a comfy bed!—and patient people are here for me. They let me take my time getting used to a leash and going for walks; I found it easy to grow accustomed to their gentle affection. In my own way, I thank them, and they seem to know what I dream about most: A home of my own, where love and happiness abide, and wonderful people let me love them forever.

Hi… my name is Daisy,
Adopted 4-21-18
You know how most cats hate water don’t you? Well, the volunteers said that when they gave me a much-needed bath and brushing out, I purred the whole time! Maybe it’s just that I wanted attention so badly that I was grateful for anything! My young mom brought my kittens and me into TALGV to save us because her landlord was threatening to abandon us in the desert (he was definitely not a cat person!), so we’re all mighty thankful for that! I’ve had quite a few babies in my 3 years, but now that I’ve been spayed, I can get on with the business of just enjoying life and being the playful companion I’m meant to be. Won’t you give me a chance to do just that?

Hi… my name is Kodiak,
Adopted 5-14-17
I was rescued in Madera Highlands and my finders really liked me. While they tried to locate my owners (which didn’t happen), they let me stay with them for a month because I was good with their kids (ages 5 and 8), and their two dogs. They also said I’m very friendly and the volunteers here agree, adding that I’m playful, good-natured, and easy to love. For me, even the routine training I’m getting here is fun! All this adds up to being able to fit in lots of different households, but I only need one—could that be yours? I’m about 4 years old and under my full black and white coat (they think I’m a Husky), I’m about 64 pounds—a handsome, affectionate guy who wants the job of keeping you happy!

Hi… my name is Happy,
Adopted 8-9-17
I was an easy dog to name because—as you’ll see if you visit me—I’m a happy dog. Oh sure, I’ve known some sadness. I was a stray when my finder spotted me on the road by his parents’ house. He said he rescued me so I wouldn’t get hit, and I say bless him for that! While waiting to come here, he kept me for 1-1/2 weeks and during that time, he said, I was gentle and tolerant with kids (ages 13 and 15) and okay with other dogs. I’m a brindle and white female, about 2-1/2-years-old, and such a friendly dog that you’ll probably see my happy smile. Of course, you can change my name if you want—I’ll be happy with whatever you choose as long as I’m called yours!
