A young man came in and adopted Alexander yesterday. This may be the same man who came in Saturday who had seen our flyers and was looking for a running buddy.

Frankie was adopted. We don't have much more information, but a young woman saw his flyer last week, so this may be the same woman who adopted him.

Clancy was adopted last Monday

Clancy was adopted by a young couple with a lot of experience with pit bulls. This was particularly exciting because they had been thinking about buying a very expensive designer pit bull. TLAC receives over 3,000 pit bulls each year. Most will not find homes in time. If you like pit bulls, please consider adopting one instead of buying one.

Chickpea went home!

What a great weekend! First Barney went home yesterday, then Chickpea was adopted today. I met the couple and they were very nice and really fell in love with Chickpea. They seemed like great adopters. Hopefully, we'll get an update from them soon.

Barney was adopted!

Barney was adopted this afternoon! A family saw him doing his spin in his kennel last weekend and the 3 kids fell in love with him. The father came back for Barney today. We'll try to get updates from the adopters to see how Barney is doing in his new home.

hello! this is heather Lance's mom and i just wanted to give you an update on how he is doing. well he is doing great!!!  and am truly still in awe of how wonderfull he is turning out to be!!! he knows several commands now, he knows sit,(this is the only thing he already knew) but i taught him... stay, shake, high five, wisper and speak. he learns fast!! and he is haveing a blast! he comes ot work with me at the pet hotel i work out and i foud out that he is great with other dogs and i guess since he hasn't gotten to play in a long time with other dogs he has a blast!!!!!  LOVES to play! and when i dont take him to doggie day camp we go to the dog park where he has alot more room to RUN.  once he got used to a schedule he was pretty well potty trained.  he has only had 2 accidents and he has chewed up a few things but we solved that by giving him some good tuff chew toys. :D  he starts his training classes the 16th.  he is such a sweet boy. a big lover!!!! he loves to lay his head  in our laps and just let us pet him for forever. and when he is inside he is a big sleepy head and sleeps alot. but once i say 'lets go outside' he perks right up!! he is  a great dog!!! oh and we went to the vet tuesday and he s in good health... he had some bald spots on his back that noone seemed to know what they were and we were guessing it was from really poor nutrition.... well the vet scrapped his skin and he had mites. :( :( but she gave him a shot and they are going away pretty quickly.  his tummy is getting back to normal..... he had diahrea alot while in the shelter and they weren't sure why and thought he had a parasite or something.... but i think it was just all the different food he was getting all the time, but i put him on a god premium food and he is doing well on it.    well overall he is very happy, calm, carefree and just wants some loving.   i included a bunch of pictures of him and us together; your welcome to use these on the website or wherever as a 'testimony' type thing or whatever else. :) well we will send you guys some more updates in a few weeks.
