Hi… my name is Ravioli,
Adopted May 18, 2016
Thanks for looking at my pictures (taken April 10). My biography is under construction. Please stop back again to read about me or… even better… stop in at TALGV to meet me soon. Kennels are open 10-2 every day.

Hi… my name is Coda,
Adopted July 5, 2016
My striking red (or rust-colored) coat may catch your eye, my handsome face and alert ears may catch your attention, but my biggest hope is that my personality will catch your heart! I’m very interested in people—maybe that’s why I’m a quick learner who already knows commands like “sit,” “stay,” “bed” and “off.” Here at TALGV, I’m working hard to learn even more to be the best dog I can be. My former owner said I was great by myself, but can be dog selective and so I probably need to be your only dog. I’m a fit and lively 4-year-old Shepherd mix male, about 52 pounds, leash and crate trained, and I have good house manners. Come for a visit and I’ll tell you more about how we could be happy together!

Hi… my name is Tristan,
Adopted 1-10-17
You just never know where you’re going to land when you jump a fence! I was exploring a neighborhood in Madera Highlands when I hopped into a nice lady’s yard and the next thing you know, here I am! (Given that I’m one of the friendliest, purriest, guys around, I probably belonged to someone who didn’t realize the perils of the free-roaming life for cats and is now ruing my loss). Even though TALGV is the “Taj Mahal” of shelters, truth be told, since I’m a lover of the first order (like my namesake in the opera!) I really want to share that with humans not just other felines so why don’t you help me be sure my story has a happy ending?

Hi… my name is Meow Meow,
Adopted June 15, 2016
When my mom, her five kids, and my feline housemate moved in with her boyfriend, I seem to have taken an instant dislike to him and my previously impeccable manners took a bit of a nosedive. But Mom said before then, I was a totally gentle, sweet little girl who got along great with the kids, was extremely friendly, lovable, and adored lying on my back so she could give me tummy rubs. I can be a bit of a night owl (but so are most cats!), but it’s just to get your attention and let you know you how much I care, so won’t you please give me a second chance? At my tender age, I have years and years ahead of me to set your life aglow.

Hi… my name is Mr. Duke,
Adopted 11-19-16
When I first arrived here, I ran out the door a couple times because I thought my family left me behind accidentally. Turned out they had moved to a rental home and couldn’t take me with them. We’d been together since I was a puppy 7 years ago, so this is a big change for me, but fortunately I’m a real friendly guy who’s ready to meet some great new people. I’m a handsome tricolored American Foxhound mix male, about 100 pounds. I’m leash trained but my companion walker should be strong like me. My former owners said I’m lovable and loyal. I’d be so glad to show you up close and personal that I’m just that—lovable and loyal—and will give you all my best if you’ll let me be yours.

Hi… my name is Tuxedo (aka Tux),
Adopted October 7, 2016
When your bona fides include “affectionate, mellow, not demanding, adapts well to all situations, no health problems, and wonderful companion,” then you know that you’re going to get a real winner when you adopt me! My dad had to move to another one of those “no pets allowed” places (they ought to be outlawed!), so now I’m on the lookout for another family to wow with my gentle and loving ways. As a 7-year-old boy, I’m really just getting started in life, so I’ll bet we could spend years and years getting to know each other and making many happy memories. I know I’m ready, so I’m double-daring you to come by, meet me, and see if you can resist my charms!

Hi… my name is Piper,
Adopted with Abigail June 3, 2016
I’m here at TALGV with Abigail, my canine BFF, because our person wants the best for us. Due to health issues, she no longer can give us the care and active lifestyle she wants us to enjoy, so we need a new home where love and fun abound. I’m a 4-year-old tan and white female, about 70 pounds, and—per my DNA test—mainly Weimaraner and Manchester Terrier. I’m leash trained, have good house manners, and know “sit,” “down,” and “come.” That’s important stuff, but you should also know that I’m affectionate, sweet and playful, love stuffed squeaky toys, and I also love Abigail. We want to stay together. So if you can love us both, we’ll double our efforts to make sure you’re happy being loved every day by your grateful doggie duo!

Adopted 1-18-17
MARKIE is a 3-year old male, Chihuahua/corgi mix. He is neutered and up to date on his shots. He will do best with a little lady dog or even better, as the only dog – Top Dog as he likes to think of it. Markie is a love bug and enjoys being spoken to, sitting on a lap or up against you. He chases a cat that runs from him but ignores another one. Markie walks well on a leash and is well behaved when you pick him up to run in a store or stop at a stand, etc. He isn’t into other dogs; he pretty much ignores them. He loves his person and those times when you can’t take him with you, he will be watching out from the window for your return. There is no adoption fee.
If you will welcome Markie into a loving home as part of your family, please call Marilyn between 8 AM and 8 PM at 517-304-6946.
