Animal League News

Hi… my name is Daisy Mae.

In my short life, I’ve lived with lots of other animals (and even birds!) and life was one big happy romp until my mom had to move into assisted living and couldn’t take any of us with her. I had a grand time playing with the dogs and other cats, but my very favorite was mom.  I have a lovely white coat with a fascinating “angel” silhouette over the top of my head and ears (and that seems to be a perfect description of me!). I was born on March 25, 2013, so you can plan now to celebrate my birthday with a special treat (mom says I like a little hamburger once in a while — and even eat the pickle, so there you go!). There’s more stuff about me that you can read at TALGV, but the best thing would be just to meet me as I know you’ll fall in love!

Hi… my name is Kita.

My “given” name is Chiquita, but like lots of names, people have been using the diminutive, so Kita I’ve become. My family lost their home and left me with a friend to care for until they could take me, but that never happened. My “foster” mom would have kept me, but she had a lot of health issues and wasn’t able to give me the exercise I needed (she also didn’t have much of a yard, so I couldn’t get my daily calisthenics in that way either!). I’m a white, 29-pound, shorthaired, American Eskimo Dog mix (okay, I don’t have the long, plush fur they do, but I’ve got other attributes like their “smile”!) about 10 years old (so I qualify for TALGV’s “Vet Care for Life” program!) and I’m a lovable, quiet and submissive lady. I just know that there’s one more family out there that wants to make the rest of my life complete!

Hi… my name is Bella.

I was found running in the street near a restaurant called “Bella …something,” but my rescuer already had twelve (!) dogs at his place, so one more mouth was WAY over the top and he needed to find me a nice home of my very own. I am a young brindle and white Staffie mix girl weighing approximately 30 pounds. TALGV is making sure I am in good health and giving me lots of attention (although I’d really rather not share it with so many other dogs!), so I am half-past ready to go home with you. My training in my previous life seems to have been quite good, and I get along very well with other dogs. I have a sweet temperament and really want to please, so I hope you will consider adding me to your family so we can be together for a long time to come.

Fox

Hi… my name is Fox.

If you’re looking for an interesting mix of breeds in a canine buddy, take a gander at me! I’m a Corgi/terrier gentleman (with emphasis on “gentle”!) who, after living with my family for ten years, has lost his home. They are moving to a place that doesn’t allow pets (that should be against the law!), so it’s a good thing TALGV was here or I’d REALLY be homeless! My people said that a while back there were other dogs and two kids in the house, but lately it’s been just me and my older mom and dad. They said that I’m perfectly housebroken, love to play tug of war, fetch, will run around for hours, and then want to sit with you and get lots of petting. Oh, and since I’m 11 years old now, I qualify for TALGV’s “vet care for life” program, so what’s stopping you from making me your own?

Hi… my name is Georgia.

Adopted February 14, 2015

Living with a foster family has many benefits, not the least of which is that people find out more about my personality in a “real world” setting! Here’s what they said: “Georgia is a wonderful, lovable dog and enjoys nothing more than a good belly rub. She is completely housebroken, crate-trained, knows “sit” and “down,” likes to ride in the car (AND the golf cart!), and loves people (especially kids!). She will make someone a wonderful pet. She’s intelligent, willing to please, and has a great personality. If you’re looking for a companion who’s loving and loyal, she’s the one for you!” That said, here are my “vitals”: I’m a 56-pound grey and white Staffie girl, so please let me show you the “warm and fuzzy” side of my breed!

Arrived December 29, 2013

Hi… my name is Kaboodle.

Construction dumpsters are good for lots of things — even offering a place for a lost or abandoned cat to hide from the elements (and other scary and dangerous things out in the desert!). The man who found me tried to find my owners by putting out signs and posting on Craig’s List, but no one responded, so here I am. He said I “seemed very friendly” (well, you can see for yourself now!), and allowed as how I ate really well (I was HUNGRY!), and that’s pretty much all anyone can tell you about me. Except, of course, that I’m a charming tabby and white boy,  and I’m going to be one happy camper when I get to move in to a safe, loving home of my own. I’ll show you that by making me part of your life, you’ll be getting the “whole kit and caboodle!”
