Rupert was a resident of the East County Animal Shelter for 3 months where he entertained everyone with his tricks - including his SPINS that he does on command. While he was getting a lot of love at the shelter he was being overlooked time and time again by adopters because he was a senior boy - 10 years old! Then the best day of his life occured when he was adopted by Jared Shaffer and his three kids - Emilie, Will and Michael. The only problem was that Rupert wasn't doing his "spin routine" at his new home. So we said "have you asked?" and voila....
Here is what the Shaffer family had to say about Rupert:
"Rupert is the perfect dog for our family. He instantly became comfortable around our family and house. Despite his young age of 10, he has the perfect amount of energy for our family. He loves his walks and chasing squirrels. He is friendly with everyone he meets. He still does his spin for treats."
And this is why TVAR does what we do -- finding amazing homes for these deserving animals. So please consider a rescue animal to add to your homes.
Thank you to some of our wonderful sponsors and partners...

My experience with TVAR was great from start to finish. They were very responsive through the whole process and did their best to make sure that our new dog and we were a good fit for each other. TVAR put a lot into preparing her, proving training before and after we adopted her. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend taking a look at Tri-Valley for your next pet!

We have adopted 3 cats from TVAR over the years. Each time we rescue a furry friend from TVAR we are treated so well. They are so happy when their animals go to a good home. The animals are fostered in loving and caring environments and the animals are healthy and well-tended. I love my new kitten and am grateful to TVAR for rescuing him and giving him a loving forever home.

This is a wonderful organization. The volunteers take very good care of their animals and work hard to find good homes for them. Tri-Valley Animal Rescue does not have its own shelter. All of the animals are in foster homes and they bring them to mobile events on the weekends. This is a group that I support. They save over 1,000 animals each year!
