Hi… my name is Justice.

I was adopted September 5, 2014.

When my heartbroken family relinquished me they said, “Justice is a great dog, she’s house- and crate-trained, sits, shakes, and loves to be the center of attention. She’s a spoiled, indoor, family dog!” My “difficulty” was that I never quite adjusted to the toddler in the house (she did a lot of unwelcome tugging and chasing!), so they decided I’d do better in a home where the kids were a lot older. I’m a lovely medium size black Lab/shepherd mix lady who simply adores people and also gets along with other dogs (as long as they’re not bigger than me!). I’m still at an age where I love to play (and I never dig in the yard!), so why not complete both our lives and take me home?

Hi… my name is Fred.

I was adopted July 16, 2014.

Okay, they say I’m rambunctious. Well, at only 6 months old I’m a big guy already, so between the exuberance of youth and a bit of heft, I must admit I am a handful.  But oh what a happy, people-loving handful! My dad adopted me when I was an 8-week-old and he was working on my training, but sadly he developed an illness that severely limited his physical abilities. I stayed with his brother for a while, but he had small kids and although I enjoyed them, my enthusiasm was a bit overwhelming. I’m an imposing black Lab/Mastiff mix boy who knows a few commands, walks well on leash, and am “easily trainable,” so I’ve got a good start on the basics already. Won’t you help me round them out in my own home?

Hi… my name is Princess.

I was adopted July 25, 2014.

You know when you meet me and I immediately roll over on my back to get belly rubs that I’m going to be one sweet and loving companion! A lady from Green Valley saw me pushed from a car in near I-19 in Tucson, and happily for me, she stopped, scooped me up, and brought me here. Whew! Without her that could have been a REALLY bad outcome for me! As a waif, there’s not too much I can tell you about my former life, but suffice it to say I’m outgoing and ever so eager to find a safe, lively home. I’m a young and a charming, 31-pound black Lab “in a smaller package” who promises to be the Velcro dog of your dreams. Just give me a chance!

Hi… my name is Sugar.

Adopted October 25, 2014.

Here’s my one wish in the world: when I “grow up” I want to be a lap dog! I’m only a pup but have led a pretty hard life, so I have a lot of catching up to do! I came to TALGV with a terribly infected eye (as you can see, it’s gone now, thank goodness) and two days later presented them with my (last!) brood of babies. I’m a whip-smart, medium-to-high energy, heeler/Lab mix girl (who prefers “the ladies” to the male of the species — something from my past, they think). I have nice leash manners and will bond very quickly with my new person, so if I can find someone who can spend lots of one-on-one of time with me, my life will be complete!

Hi… my name is Lucie Lu.

I was adopted July 20, 2014.
Thank goodness for Good Samaritans! I was just about to be taken to “the pound” by my owner (because he was unable to walk me any longer!), when a TALGV volunteer overheard the conversation and convinced him to relinquish me to him. That was MY lucky day, I can tell you! I’m a healthy, happy, smart, and affectionate  yellow Lab mix lady (with endearing Shar Pei-like ears!), and everyone agrees that I’ll be a wonderfully loving companion who will adapt beautifully to an active family. I don’t bark (at least no one has heard me yet!), am good with kids, and other dogs, so what’s stopping you? I know that if you come down to meet me you’ll be able to see all my sterling attributes for yourself!

Hi… my name is Riley.

Adopted January 16, 2015.

The first thing you’ll probably notice about me is that I only have three legs. The second thing will be that it doesn’t make one bit of difference to me! No one knows why I lost my leg, but I adjusted to the loss a long time ago so I’ve pretty much forgotten that I ever had four! I lived with a little family for two months after a friend gave me to them, but they had another small dog and two young kids (all of whom I got along splendidly with), and they really couldn’t devote the time needed for my education. I’m a lovely (and loving!) brindle-colored Lab/heeler mix lady who’s yearning for a family and place of my own to make my life compete.

Arrived June 6, 2014.
