Tami Myers
Tami has had a lifelong love of the veterinary field. From 9 years of age, she trained eight guide dogs for the blind and raised market pigs, goats, dairy heifers, and sheep all through high school.
Her current menagerie of creatures includes two teenagers, numerous dog and cat fosters, 6 permanent fur babies, a bunny, a cockatiel, and 2 saltwater fish tanks – she’s a lover of all animals. She even met her husband of 22 years at the county fair when he helped her catch a runaway sheep!
While traveling the world with her family through 20 years of Navy life, Tami has worked extensively in animal hospitals and bird farms throughout Southern California, Oregon, Southern Spain, and Texas. She attended California Polytechnic University at Pomona studying animal science and holds a bachelor’s degree in healthcare management.

“Deedee! What are you doing in my laboratory?!” 👨🔬 I may not be a scientist, but I like to consider myself somewhat of a genius. If I’m not spending my days working on my mastered tricks, then you can find me hanging out with my friends. I just LOVE playing with my fellow canine companions, even if my intelligence is far superior. 🧠 Humans are another great option to keep me company. Young or old, I don’t have a preference as long as someone is providing me with the attention I deserve. A good game of fetch in the yard accompanied with a brisk walk through the neighborhood are my personal favorite ways to get my cardio in. I’m the perfect pup to cook up some love with, whether we are running around together or chillaxing while thinking up new experiments. 🧐 So, if you’re in the market for a scientific sweetie to add to your life, apply to meet me today! 💜

Would you beLEAF us if we told you this is the perfect puppy? 🍃
Douglas is one happy-go-lucky pup hailing from Animal Care Services in San Antonio. This boy is the last one left from his litter, who has no problem hanging with the big dogs at his foster home, and likes cats, too! He is nearing perfection with his potty training and crate well at night as long as he gets his nightly “cookie” before bed. He is incredibly lovable and will be difficult to give up, according to his foster mom! Douglas is hilarious and spunky, with puppy antics that will keep you on your toes. One of his favorite games, for example, is stealing a shoe and making a run for it. Despite his mischievous nature, this boy does correct quickly with a firm “no.” He also knows “potty” during outside time, and recalls with “pup-pups, come!” This smartie pants is incredibly food motivated, too, so he is bound to master tons of other commands by adulthood. He isn’t one to stray far from his people and has a loyal, eager-to-please personality. In the evenings, he enjoys cuddling with his sister and will whistle the night away. So, if you’re looking for a rescue who is sweeter than sap, add this pine pup to your pack!🐶🐾❤️
