My story

Hey there, it's me, Thomas Alva Edison, or ALVA for short! I promise to be the "light" in your life and "invent" a new friendship with you (get it?). I must say, I'm quite the catch, the perfect mix of affectionate and playful, with a quiet side that loves to cuddle up and take it easy. I've got a huge heart and I'm smart too, so I'll be your loyal companion through thick and thin. I'm a friendly guy who gets along with other dogs, so I'll fit right into your pack or help you start one if you don't have any others. So, if you're looking for a fun-loving, cuddly addition to your family, come meet me right away! To complete an adoption application Just click the "Adoption Application" link next to my photos above or Visit our website at www.onceuponatailrescue.com Don't forget to follow us on Facebook & Instagram! #outdogrescue If you want to meet a pup in person, Once Upon a Tail Rescue does adoption events at PetSmart in Covington, LA on most Saturdays with many of our adoptable dogs there. Don't forget to complete your application ahead of time, so you don't miss out on the pup you've connected with. If pre-approved, you have first priority & can usually take home your new best friend the same day! *Please note that there is no obligation to adopt by completing an application.* **All dogs are required to have complete vet services, including shots, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip, which are included in the Adoption Fee. Some dogs may still require completion of these services due to current age, size, breed and/or health. All vet services must be done at the vet clinic used by Once Upon a Tail Rescue.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt ALVA, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
