Hi… my name is Shelby,

Adopted September 11, 2016

You know what a cool combination black, white, and orange are? Well if you don’t, just take a gander at me! With my black coat, white mask and paws, and “whoa-Nelly” orange eyes, you’ll find out in a minute! I may have spent a big part of my 10-month life fending for myself, because I’m still a little cautious around people and can be protective of my food (you never know when something’s going to snatch it away!), but as the days go by, I’m feeling more at ease and confident with life. I was found in the Santo Tomas neighborhood, and my rescuer would have kept me, but her other cats “didn’t care for me” (how can that be?) so now’s your chance to prove to me what great companions humans really are!

Hi… my name is Lola,

Adopted 2-19-17

My brother, Chiquito, is a little bigger and braver than I am, but he assures me it’s okay to be shy—especially when you’re as sweet as I am. Granted, he’s my brother and loves me, but the volunteers tell me the same thing. Chiquito and I were adopted together; we happily moved to the country with our people, but we kept getting out. So we’re back at TALGV, knowing that we need close supervision when out in the yard and/or a dog-proof fence. I’m described as a “very obedient, good dog,” who loves chew toys, and knows basic commands like “sit, stay, bye-bye, and potty,” (though not all at once!). Every day, I dream of a wonderful life of love and comfort that’s given and received. Could you make my dream come true?

Hi… my name is Chiquito,

Adopted 2-19-17

I arrived at TALGV with some things I really didn’t want: cactus spines in my nose and mouth! After my sister, Lola, and I were adopted, our new people moved to the country and that’s apparently where I found the cactus. They loved us, but said we kept getting out and so in our next home we’re going to need either close supervision or a dog-proof fence! Sis and I are Staffie/Chihuahua mixes (that’s what they say!), and we’re good for each other; she’s a little shy and I’m strong in the moral support area. I also love to play with squeaky toys, and know basic commands like “sit, stay, and potty,” (though not all at once!). Won’t you please come visit and let me show you how great we could be together!

Hi… my name is Candy (Ann),

Adopted October 8, 2016

Candy Ann has earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

My beauty makes me stand out in a crowd—including my colorful ears (one brown, one white)—but it’s my personality that makes me lovable. The people I recently lived with described me as an “affectionate dog who loves people and cuddling.” I was friendly to all people, got along with another dog my size, nicely tolerated handling (including nail clipping), and listened well. People, toys, and my dog friends make me happy. And guess what? I’ve earned the coveted AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate for my awesome performance in the behavior department, so you know I’m a good learner! I’m a young adult female who’d love to be your faithful companion—out for a hike or in for a cuddle. Let’s meet today and find out what great times we can have together!

Hi… my name is Holly,

You know how some dogs “adopt” their people? Well, my best dog friend (probably my sister) and I found our finders. We arrived at their house and once they fed us, we didn’t leave! I’m sure you don’t blame us. We’re just 4 months old and nowhere near able to fend for ourselves. We arrived at the Animal League thin and dirty, but now that we’ve had our baths and two square meals every day, we’re gaining weight (up to 20-plus pounds!) and confidence. We still have lots to learn, but, fortunately, we’re each adorable (my sister’s word, but I agree), and if you’ve the patience to help me get over my shyness, I’d love to be your happy hound puppy! I’m the brown and white one, who’s really hoping to see you today.

Hi… my name is Nipsy,

Adopted August 26, 2016

When her fortunes necessitated my mom having to move in with friends, it turned out that they had two dogs that weren’t at all cat friendly (the Staffie I lived with was — and I really loved playing with him!), so unhappily, I’m searching for a new family with good-natured critters (or not, it could just be me!). I get along great with kids (mom said, “Nipsy’s sweet, loves to be petted and cuddle, and doesn’t have an mean bone in her body.” Combine those raves with my lovely looks, and you couldn’t have a more appealing package! I like to sleep with you in bed if you’ll let me, and since mom allowed me on the furniture too (where all cats should be in my opinion!) I can be your constant companion!

Hi… my name is Leia,

Adopted July 18, 2016

Last two photos were taken in March when I was just 3 months old. My owner moved away and couldn’t take me. Why don’t you stop by The Animal League to meet me right away? I bet we would both be happy if you did.
