Tri-Valley Animal Rescue Giving Them Another Chance

TARKIN East County Animal Shelter looking for his forever home

Tarkin is a dog who sees the glass as half full. He doesn’t realize how long he’s been in the shelter, but he is always happy and smiling. Tarkin is overlooked by visitors because he jumps up and barks when people pass by his cage. But in reality, he’s just trying to get visitors’ attention - and is an active, high-energy dog who enjoys the outdoors. Once he is out of his cage and into a yard he runs at full speed with joy and, of course, with his trademark smile. Tarkin is affectionate and loves playing with toys and catching balls.

While he will need an experienced dog owner – Tarkin has been making fantastic progress and is a very fast learner He knows “sit” and “stay” and walks well on leash. Tarkin would likely prefer a home where he can be the only dog although he has shown progress with female dogs with slow and proper introductions.

Tarkin is neutered, vaccinated and ready to go to his new forever home. If you are looking for a devoted companion, please check out Tarkin! He is located at the East County Animal Shelter – 4595 Gleason Drive in Dublin – Kennel A10. You can see more about Tarkin and additional pictures and videos at www.tvar.org

Demosthenes And Yetro

TVAR FOSTER KITTEN PROGRAM

Demostenes and Yetro are a handsome pair of tuxedo kittens currently available for adoption from TriValley Animal Rescue. These two goofy and rambunctious brothers were afflicted by a severe upper respiratory infection and were very scared when they were found. They were nursed back to health and socialized in a loving foster home and continue to be socialized by TVAR’s wonderful group of volunteers. They now enjoy running around like goofballs together, cuddling up for photoshoots, and eating yummy snacks.

They are neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

TVAR’s kitten and bottle baby programs rescue kittens - some only days old - who are unable to be adopted from the shelter and place them in foster homes where they receive medical care, love, and a home setting until they are healthy, able to be spayed or neutered and ready for their forever homes

Tri-Valley Animal Rescue (TVAR) - Giving them Another Chance

TVAR is a locally based and volunteer run 501(c)3 animal rescue organization. We assist in saving over 1,000 animals yearly in the Tri-Valley and surrounding areas. We are celebrating 30 years of saving lives with over 250 local volunteers. At TVAR, we rely solely on Public Support to fund our life saving programs.

All TVAR’s foster animals go directly from the local Animal Shelter into foster homes where they receive much needed love and socialization and where they are kept until adopted.

We also have an invaluable Shelter Program where our volunteers spend countless hours every day at the local shelter working with the Dogs, Puppies, Cats and Kittens and the Public.
