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!

Hi… my name is Grace,

Adopted 11-6-21

I’m a 9-month-old female Lab/Heeler mix, who feels a little lost and anxious. You see, everything is strange to me, and I’m trying to adjust to my new surroundings and canine neighbors. I’m curious about other dogs, but I don’t know how to approach them! I’ve been told excited barking isn’t the correct procedure. What I do love are the people who come to visit me. It doesn’t take long for everyone to see what a lovable, happy, playful pup I am. Imagine the kind of dog I’ll become once I’ve learned some basic commands. I don’t need a lesson to know I’m ready for a loving forever home. Are you ready to share YOURS? Hint: Do you know what happens when you take the Yout of YOUR home? It  becomes OUR home!

Hi… my name is Sasha (aka Mandie),

Adopted 4-26-22

When I was first found, I was a scared 5-week-old puppy who was all alone. Now I’m a confident young gal who knows what she wants out of life. I want a loving forever home, and I want to be your “only” pet! According to my foster Mom, I’m a wonderful, affectionate companion who’s absolutely no problem in the home. I ride well in a car and enjoy playing fetch with my ball. I’m house, crate, and leash trained, ask to go out, and even know the commands “sit,” “stay,” “off” and “wait”(useful if I should start pulling on my leash). I have also improved on the “watch” command. I may sound egotistical, but I think you’ll be more than satisfied with me, and you deserve the best!

Hi… my name is Bogey,

Adopted 9-25-21

Like the theme song from Casablanca, that other Bogey’s movie says, “It’s still the same old story, a fight for love and glory…” but I say all I need is the love! Of course I wouldn’t say no to “the fundamental things.” I’m speaking of my new forever home, one so secure that I won’t leave without permission. I’m a loving, well-mannered boy with an agreeable personality, who walks well on a leash, listens to my handler, asks to go out, and knows the commands “sit” and “stay.” I love people and I’ve been good around other dogs and children (ages 12 and 15.) As the song says, “You must remember this…” I’m waiting for you to take me home. I know we’ll be happy…”as time goes by.”
