Hi… my name is Argo,

Adopted February 13, 2016

My sister, Allie, and I were found wandering together, starving, each with evidence of having been hit with pellets. Imagine how grateful we were to the woman who took us in, and how happy she was to discover that despite our past troubles, we are both friendly dogs. With 7 animals already, she couldn’t keep us, and so our journey has now brought us to TALGV. I’m a 2-year-old Boxer mix male, black and tan, about 55 pounds. If you like to play, I’m your guy! And since I’m so interested in you and eager to be your friend, you’ll probably have fun teaching me what I need to know to be even better. Please let me show you the fun I can add to your safe and loving home.

Hi… my name is Roxie.

Adopted August 22, 2015

I wish I could tell you my whole story and confide in you what made me shy, but for now will just say that I was so hungry for company that I approached a stranger’s house. He couldn’t keep me, so now I’m at TALGV, where my new friends are helping me build my confidence. They compliment my graceful movements and my beautiful brindle coat. I’m a 55-pound Boxer/Lab mix, so I have an athletic kind of build, but I’m good at stepping gently. Of course, I’d love to feel free to play and know the joy of hanging out with someone whose friendship I can always count on, so if that sounds good to you, too, please come for a visit. We can make lots of happy future stories together!

Hi… my name is Bali (aka Bella).

Adopted February 17, 2016

When my family moved and couldn’t take me with them, I was sad, of course, but right away started believing someone else could love me, too. I remember all the good things I’ve learned, like “sit,” “down” and “stay.” Best of all, I know how important it is to love somebody. I try to show that when I meet new people by wiggling and sometimes speaking in my high soprano happy bark. And once I’ve adjusted to the joy of someone noticing me, I’ll walk calmly by their side on the leash, occasionally looking up just to let them know I’m noticing them, too. I’m a comfy-size adult Boxer mix female with a big loving heart who’d be happy to meet you and thrilled to belong to you. Please come visit me today!

Bud

Hi… my name is Bud.

Adopted July 31, 2015

If I had to choose one word to introduce myself, it would be playful! I just love to play and I’m real good at it. I spent a week with the person who found me running in The Villages of Green Valley and she described me as friendly, eager to learn and please. It helps that I already know “sit,” “come,” and “no.” With some of my human friends, I’ll hold up my paw to “shake,” and sometimes when you talk to me, my ears perk up to make me just a little handsomer. I get along well with some other dogs, but I am not used to cats. And did I mention that I like to play? I’m an exceptionally friendly, brindle Boxer mix boy.

Hi… my name is Roxy.

Adopted July 18, 2015

Roxy comes with Free Vet Care for Life program.

The nice people who found me in Rancho Sahuarita described me as “friendly and mellow,” something they seemed to really like. Just makes for a good life, right? I liked them, too, including the kids—2, 10 and 13 years old—and other cats and dogs. I’m a beautiful 69-pound Boxer/hound mix lady. I have learned “sit,” “stay,” “out,” know good house manners, how to walk on a leash, ride quietly in a car, and I generally don’t find much to bark about. Oh, and I don’t jump on furniture or people—something else people seem to like. Unfortunately, those nice people had a lease that could not include me. So now I’m hoping you will find me here and take me home to stay. We can be mellow together!

Hi… my name is Star,

Adopted August 4, 2016

Star has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

My brother and I were puppies found in the desert. We stayed with our rescuers for several months, living outside until we moved here, where the volunteers have taught me so much! Now I know commands like “sit,” “stay,” “down,” and even earned my AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate! I’m a young Boxer/Lab/Staffie mix male, 52 pounds, and my friends call me handsome—in part because of my sleek black coat with the white star on my neck—and a fun companion for walks, playing ball, and belly rubs. (I’ll try to make those belly rubs fun for you, too, okay?) I’m super grateful to those who helped me become the terrific dog I am today, and all I ask from you is a chance to show you how great we could be together.

Hi… my name is Cloud,

Adopted August 4, 2016

Cloud has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate.

My brother and I were found in the desert when we were just puppies. We stayed with our rescuers for several months, living outside until we moved here, where the volunteers have taught me so much! Now I know commands like “sit,” “stay,” “down,” and even earned my AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate! I’m a young Boxer/Lab/Staffie mix male, 47 pounds, and my friends call me handsome—thanks to my sleek black coat with snowy white markings—and a fun companion for walks, playing ball, and receiving belly rubs. (I’ll try to make those belly rubs fun for you, too, okay?) I’m super grateful to those who helped me become the terrific dog I am today, and all I ask from you is a chance to show you how great we could be together.

Hi… my name is Isabella.

Adopted December 26, 2015

OK, I know that there are dogs who are perfectly content being “outdoor only” critters, but even after living with my family for 5½ years (all my life), I still wanted to be inside with them! My people (a senior couple) said that I’d recently started getting into mischief out there, so since they had four other outside dogs and couldn’t bring just me in, they felt I needed a place and home to call my own. They said I’m a gentle lady who is very submissive, so I’ll bet with just a bit of explanation on the finer points of indoor living, I’ll be a great companion. I’m a Boxer (my dad) and Australian Cattle Dog (my mom) mix, and I’d love the opportunity to show you just how endearing I can be!

Hi… my name is Bubba.

Adopted July 5, 2015

When I started to hear the dreaded “D” word, I had a feeling my life was going to change. My mom and dad got a divorce, and mom and the kids couldn’t keep me, so I went to live with dad, but I just couldn’t adjust without the security and comfort of my little family, since they really were all I knew and loved in life. That said, given my personality, everyone agrees that once I get into a new active, loving home with lots of attention, all my good qualities will shine through again. My people said I was wonderful with the kids, got along well with my Lab housemate, and was a “great family dog,” so won’t you please give me that one more chance to “just be me”?
