Hi… my name is Colleen,

Adopted 4-3-22

In Ireland a colleen is a young girl! I wonder, does that also include adorable young female puppies? I’m a Lab mix, about two months old, and quite a smart and pretty “lass.” My brother Casey and I arrived here after we were found running loose near the Circle K. Casey has gone to his new home now, so I REALLY need to find a home of my own. You probably already know puppies can be a lot of work, but if you’re a patient and loving person, you’ll do fine. I’m almost potty trained and you can teach me the basic commands. As a reward for helping me grow into a well-mannered adult, I promise to be a faithful companion and a beloved member of your family. If you can promise me love and kindness in return…I’m yours!

Hi… my name is Maple,

Adopted 2-5-22

The little rascal is a cuddle bug and growing like a weed. Maple’s favorite toy, besides his brother Cedar, is a box… a plain cardboard box, just high enough for him to fit into and play or climb on top of when he wants to be picked up. He liked a soft toy with a string tail (which he promptly removed before disemboweling the stuffed critter). At times he entertains himself with chew toys. He gives lots of puppy kisses and snuggles up to people, much to the delight of everyone. When he is out of the pen, he has been observed to return there to do his business on the pad. Smart fellow!

Hi… my name is Cedar,

Adopted 3-5-22

The little rascal is a cuddle bug and growing like a weed. Cedar’s favorite toy, besides his brother Maple, is a box… a plain cardboard box, just high enough for him to fit into and play or climb on top of when he wants to be picked up. He is not big into chew toys unless they are being held by the person whose hand he would rather play with. He is more into being held and talked to. He gives lots of puppy kisses and looks at everyone without fear. Cedar is an adventurous little fellow, too. He likes to explore and shows little fear of anything. Except the vacuum, that is.

Hi… my name is Ryan,

Adopted 9-9-22

Even though I’m a big strong boy, I’m still a youngster, in other words… a pup! That often means I play a little too rough. I’m crate trained, already know how to sit, ask to go out, and use a doggie door. When walking by active barking dogs (about 25’) I’m mildly reactive, but I know how to respond, when told assertively, to the command “leave it.” I’m fair on a leash and will benefit with further training to learn not to pull. With my young (short) attention span, I’ll need reminders to focus on my handler to know what’s expected of me. I’m well worth the work if you’re willing, and once you’ve earned my trust I’ll be your faithful and loving companion for life.

NOTE: Ryan has been social, tolerant, and playful when meeting other dogs in TALGV’s playgroup. He would like to meet any resident dogs before adoption to your home.

Hi… my name is June Bug,

Adopted with Cricket 2-12-22

My brother Cricket and I were taken in by a nice neighbor after our people passed away. There they had lots of animals and said we both got along well with them. They said I was good with their children of various ages and liked to play with them. I know that I need to learn a few things yet, like coming when called and to sit and stay and that kind of stuff. I walk pretty well on a leash, but I’ve been told there’s some room for improvement. I am a big cuddle bug and, yes, I know, big is the operative word here! If you don’t mind a lovable lab/heeler mix snuggling in next to you on the couch, I’m your girl!

If you are considering adoption, please call TALGV office (520-625-3170) and make a date to meet me soon. Kennel appointments are between 10 and 2 every day.

Hi… my name is Cricket,

Adopted with June Bug 2-12-22

My sister June Bug and I were taken in by a nice neighbor after our people passed away. There they had lots of animals and said we both got along well with them. I particularly liked the horse! They said I was gentle with their children and liked when they played with me. I need to learn a few things yet, like coming when called and to sit and stay and that kind of stuff. I walk pretty well on a leash, but I’ve been told there is some room for improvement. I’m a big cuddle bug and, yes, I know, big is the operative word here! If you don’t mind a lovable Lab/ Heeler mix next to you on the couch, I’m your boy!

Hi… my name is Buck,

Adopted 1-8-22

COMES WITH VET CARE SUPPORT FOR LIFE

Until recently I lived with my “dad,” who gave me all the care I needed. Now, sadly he’s unable to take care of me. Like any good dad, he did what was best for his boy, and allowed TALGV to take care of me and my “special needs.” (I’m covered by Vet Care Support for Life). I’m a 14-year-old Labrador, with a sweet disposition, who’s physically disabled. My paralysis doesn’t stop me from getting into my wheels, and heading out for my walks. I enjoy this activity because it’s not only good exercise, but it also gets me out of the house for a while. Socialization is good for the spirit, and I love being around people. I’m now being fostered in the home of a good friend. Even though life may be short, loving care lasts for an eternity!

Hi… my name is Tommy,

Adopted 2-17-22

After a short stay at TALGV I moved into foster care, and it’s   just what I need… caring people to teach me the basics of living in a home. I know the commands “wait” and “sit” and love going for long walks (as an individual or in a pack). I’m currently sharing the home with the two resident dogs. It seems I may be a bit of a toy hog, but I remain a true gentleman. I’m well behaved, enjoy the company of people, and I’ve been loving towards my foster’s granddaughter. I’m still working on my greeting skills, but I’m never aggressive or prone to jump. My foster mom says I’m a “joy” to have in their home. I could be the joy in yours!

Hi… my name is Andy,

ANDY HAS BEEN AT TALGV OR MORE THAN 2 YEARS AND COMES WITH VET CARE SUPPORT FOR LIFE.

I’m extremely intelligent and great at problem-solving – sometimes a little too good. I can open doors, figure things out quickly, and have mastered “puppy dog eyes” to extract treats from you. Like many brainy types, I come with a few quirks: kids make me anxious, I’m socially awkward outside my trusted inner circle, and I strongly dislike wind and passing vehicles (unless I’m riding in one, obviously). I need to be your one-and-only pet, as I prefer having all the attention and thrive best without other animals. My ideal home is adult-only, calm, and predictable, with limited visitors, a secure backyard, water to splash in, and humans who enjoy high-energy games of fetch that would impress most athletes. I’m housetrained, crate-trained, respectful indoors, and—because I’m a longtime resident—I come with Vet Care Support for Life.

If you are considering adoption, please call TALGV office (520-625-3170) and make a date to meet me. Kennel appointments are between 10 and 2 every day.

Hi… my name is Baby,

Adopted 11-19-21

COMES WITH VET CARE SUPPORT FOR LIFE

When I first arrived at TALGV my left eye looked so bad they took me to the veterinarian who performed necessary surgery and removed my eye. I’m doing quite well, thank you! I’m recuperating in a great foster home where my foster parent reports that I’m polite, well mannered, and a “pure joy” to have in the home. I’m very affectionate, love people, and I’ll happily welcome everyone. I  know the commands “sit,” “stay,” “shake,” and “no,” and walk very well on a leash. I can be curious about other dogs, and I have good manners with them. In fact you can ask the home’s resident dog, who’ll tell you that we get along great. When I’m ready to leave this home (with Vet Care Support for Life), I’ll be ready to  enter yours, so please put out your “WELCOME” mat for me!
