Hi… my name is Q-tip (aka Dixie),

Adopted 1-7-17

When I was first adopted, I was part of a litter found in the desert and weighed just 8 pounds! Today, I’m a 55-pound, 17-month-old who’s learned a thing or two. Unfortunately, my family is splitting up and their new places won’t have room for my buddy Atticus or me. (We’ve lived together for the last year or so.) But I’m optimistic! After all, it’s a good thing to have some training under your belt, right? I know some important commands, and my former owners said I was good in the house even when they were gone. They described me as a “playful, loyal cuddler,” and said I was “great with cats!” Brindle and white, I’m a Heeler mix female who hopes my next home is my forever home with someone wonderful like you!

Hi… my name is Baxter,

Adopted 1-11-17

“Found in the Santo Tomas neighborhood. He is one of the local strays. Very friendly. HATES DOGS!” That’s pretty much it for what anyone knows about me. Well, except that, as stated, I really am very friendly ­– especially since I’ve been relying on the “kindness of strangers,” so having a home of my own has been a dream of mine for quite some time. They’re guessing my age at about 7 years (I guess teeth tell some sort of story in that regard), and with the distinctive dot near my nose (sort of a “half-moustache”), I’ve got charm as well. Now would be a good time to start your year off with a good deed, so why not make me yours? There’ll be happiness in store for us both!

Eli

Hi… my name is Eli,

Adopted 1-7-17

When I first arrived at TALGV, I’d sit at the fence dividing my doggie neighbor and me, and the two of us would silently touch our heads together for comfort. Maybe that story tells you the kind of gentle soul I am. Some folks see “Border Collie” and think I’m high energy, but the people I lived with for a few weeks described me as “very quiet, easy going, a great companion,” and a “great house dog.” They said I was gentle with small children, got along with other dogs, and love to play fetch. With two other dogs and two new babies, they rescued me but couldn’t keep me, so I’m here; a 3-year-old, 42-pound, white and brown male. The volunteers call me a treasure, but I just want to be called yours.

Hi… my name is Puma,

Adopted 7-8-17

Puma has achieved his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate!

I was a stray dog, but the volunteers quickly changed that description to “hidden gem.” They say I’m a special guy for lots of reasons—I’m sweet, easygoing, love people, and I’ve demonstrated by excellent manners by earning my Canine Good Citizen certificate. And sometimes I’m quiet, which is often because I’m dreaming of a place called “home”—a happy place, where I love my someone and they love me back. I’m 18 months old, tan and white, about 50 pounds, and one of the most adorable, fun-loving guys you could hope to meet. As you’d expect, I’m good on a leash, great company for people (but not for cats), and all I really want to be is yours. If you can make my dream of “home” come true, please come meet me soon!

Hi… my name is Thyme,

Adopted with Rosemary 2-10-17

If the eyes truly are the windows to the soul, I hope mine show you all the goodness in me. I like people, but I’m cautious when first we meet. That’ll be okay if you’re patient, able to see the loving, devoted companion I’ll be once we’re friends. Another dog, Rosemary, and I were found and brought here together; she was injured and I stayed loyally by her side through it all, a sweet and gentle friend. We’re both feeling good now, able to relax and have some fun. I’m a tan 1-year-old Lab mix male, about 41 pounds, and Rosemary is a beautiful 44-pound Boxer mix. We’re very bonded and want to stay together, so what do you say? Can you give both of us a chance and let us love you forever!

Hi… my name is Vanessa,

Adopted 3-6-17

Here’s some of what my rescuer said about me: “Vanessa was born on Memorial Day 2016. She will let you pick her up and pet her (although she acts indignant about it!), her favorite toy is a crumpled up piece of tin foil, and she can be a (playful!) ‘head batter’ at times!” I was always an outdoor cat (along with a whole passel of others), but fun as that might have been, that just wasn’t safe for me, so now I want a nice warm indoor home where I can turn my attention to a human or two instead of those little furry creatures called mice! At my age, I’ve got lots of living and loving to do, so why not help me discover the joys of a real home with you?
