VLT Dog Member of the Month
December 2024 - Jasper
Jasper is an almost 9 year old Poodle-Chihuahua-Shih Tzu- Pomeranian. He was just 1 year old when he came to live with me after "failing" 3 previous placements. From a pup who was too afraid to leave the house (and had to be taken out in a stroller), he has blossomed into the happiest of little dogs who loves meeting his friends (both canine and human) on his regular outings to the park.
November 2024 - Floyd
Floyd was a rescue and has been a nervous boy. Afraid of a lot of things. However, Mr Floyd has become a hiking dog. He is so happy and prances for the entire hike, no matter how many miles I choose.
October 2024 - Roux
Roux is a 5 year old Red Toy Poodle who packs a mighty personality in a 7 pound package. His favorite thing to do is run and hike with his mom. He also enjoys traveling and has been to France twice and Germany.

Jennae came from the Canine Adoption and Rescue League (CARL.) She is about 12 now, half Corgi and half Crazy. She loves to get out and hike.
July 2024 - Leila
Leila is a black & white English springer spaniel with a keen sense of smell and a great love of the outdoors. In addition to being a fan of the VLT community & Marina Park in Ventura, Leila's day job is as the official greeter at River Ridge Golf Club in Oxnard where Dee is the General Manager. www.riverridge-golfclub.com. Leila is adjusting to her new role/life following the passing of her older brother, Oreo, who passed away in January of this year.

June 2024 - Kona
Ventura Land Trust is honored to share our latest dog of the month as a special posthumous memorial for our dear friend Kona who passed much too young at the age of 8. You might have seen Kona hiking at Harmon as he was a regular visitor.
From Harmon Canyon's first weeks in operation, Kona was trail buddy to VLT volunteer Russ Charvonia. They logged many miles and Kona relished all the wonderful smells the trail has to offer. He and Russ spent part of Kona's last day on the trail, and many happy hiking memories will soon replace the tears for Russ and Linda.
May 2024 - Brant and Wigeon
Brant (a 2.5 year Chesapeake Bay Retriever) and Wigeon (a 1 year old Labrador Retriever) enjoy hiking, swimming, playing ball, and socializing/playing with other dogs.
