Hi… my name is Rango.
Adopted December 1, 2014.
When a Border Patrol agent saw me cross the border I was near death, so what could he do but take me home? I was mighty happy to get into his vehicle, I can tell you! In the two months that he nursed me back to health, he said my “good qualities” were that I was “lovely, loyal, and listens” and he probably would have kept me forever, but his oldest dog wasn’t having any of me (although the younger one and I got along fine), so here I am looking for a family that will help me get my very own “green card” and a chance to see what “the good life” is all about. I’m a handsome young shepherd/Lab mix boy who only needs TLC and training to be a good “citizen.”

Read MoreHi… my name is Bogie.
Adopted November 15, 2014.
The wonderful couple that found me (and my companion, Boxie), in a wash already had rescued ten dogs and three cats from that area, so keeping us forever was more than they could handle. Fortunately, TALGV’s Outreach Program came to their (and our!) rescue and when there was space, we got to come here. When I was found, I was terribly thin, had a bad sore on my back, and someone had cut off my tail, but despite it all, I am a sweet, gentle, and tolerant guy. I’m a good-natured black Lab mix boy, about 11 months old (I look younger because I’ve not exactly had the best start in life!), who will be eternally grateful for a safe, loving home to wipe out the memory of the past.

Hi… my name is Winkie.
Adopted November 9, 2014.
I’m sure you can guess how I got my name! A gentleman dropping off his trash found me “dumpster diving” and, smarty-pants that I am, I followed him home. I had a badly infected eye, so the vet removed it and gave me medicine to clear up some health problems (dumpster food isn’t the most nutritious in the world!). My foster mom says that I’m “getting the gist” of potty training, am “eating like a pig,” and having a blast playing with her other dogs and kids. I adore attention, being cuddled, sleeping with the kids, and am learning leash manners. I’m a sweet Lab mix girl about 3 months old and “all puppy,” so my dreams are filled with thoughts of having my own family, a yard, and maybe another canine playmate to share life’s joys.
