Hi… my name is Jack (aka Lloyd),

Adopted 6-22-25

When I came to TALGV after my owner of eight years had to rehome me, it didn’t take them long to figure out that my favorite things, in order, are: chasing balls, snacks, and chasing balls. Yes, I am an excellent walker on a leash. Yes, I enjoy scratches and belly rubs. Yes, I’m housebroken. They say I’m well-behaved and very sweet (oh, and handsome). The people here really love when I smile at them, and I figured out quickly that smiling gets me plenty of snacks, so I guess I’m also smart. I’m basically the total package! If you have snacks, like throwing the ball, and want a best friend for life, I may be the guy for you. I don’t need a lot, but I can offer a lifetime of love in return.

Hi… my name is Orion,

Adopted with Estela 6-3-25

What is cuter than a Boxer puppy? Me—a Boxer mix! I have all the cuteness and silly antics that Boxers are known for, but I don’t snore nearly as much. I’m a little reserved at first, but I warm up quickly. I love playing with other dogs, and I can hold my own with dogs who are bigger than me. I met a cat once—it scared me, but I didn’t chase it, so these nice people gave me a treat. I am learning to walk on a leash, sit, and follow other commands here in my puppy preschool, and they say I’m a shining star! I’d love to be part of your universe, so come by and see me today.

Hi… my name is Estela,

Adopted with Orion 6-3-25

When the people at TALGV first met me, they knew I was a star, which is how I got my name. My mom is a Shepherd mix and my papa is a rolling stone (er…rolling Boxer, I guess). I was brought in with my siblings so the nice people here could help us find homes. While I’ve been here, I’ve been able to play with dogs (even big dogs, who I really like!), a cat (scary!), and other puppies. I also go to school because I’m a big girl; I know how to do “watch me,” “sit,” and I just mastered “down.” I also learned to walk on a leash like a champ. I’d love to be the star of your family, so come by and see me soon.

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 Mars,

Adopted 6-28-25

I was named after the Roman God of war, and I take that title very seriously. I excel at puppy dog eyes, which help me win all the food and all the attention. I am a pretty tough pup; my siblings and I were found running loose, and even though I was pretty skinny when I came to TALGV, I was tough enough to overcome that adversity and quickly learn to love people and all they have to offer (especially the snacks). I’ll need some patience because I’m still a puppy, but your reward will be a loyal, loving, fun companion for the rest of our lives. The only thing I really want to conquer is your heart; mine is wide open and waiting for a family to call my own.

Hi… my name is Mercury,

Adopted 6-7-25

My name is Mercury and I have a message for you: please consider adding me to your family! I am a smart pup who has overcome some hardship. I was found abandoned with my siblings, but it hasn’t stopped me from loving people, life, and other dogs. I’m an older puppy but I’m learning at an advanced level because I’m very smart. I love attention and I really love snacks, which apparently makes me easier to train. I am probably going to grow up to be a perfect size for a family—not too big, not too small. I’d love to be your best friend and have a loving home with all the snacks and belly rubs I can handle. In exchange, I offer a lifetime of love and loyal friendship.

Hi… my name is Saturn,

Adopted 6-15-25

My name is Saturn because I have a lot in common with the planet. We’re both very unique; Saturn has big, complex rings and lots of moons. I have two different colored eyes and the biggest heart ever; they say I’m the sweetest pup. I love to give hugs and snuggle next to you (or on your lap if you’re willing). Yes, I’m a little skinny, and I probably won’t grow up to be very big because I had some health challenges when I came to TALGV. I was found running loose with my siblings and I didn’t get a good meal or medical care until I arrived here. Now I’m eating well, putting on weight, and getting healthy. I am a baby at heart, though, and I’d love to be your forever cuddle buddy.

Hi… my name is Angel,

Adopted 7-19-25

While I don’t have wings, I do have a new feather in my cap, umm… I mean, collar: Dog Playgroup Rockstar! I love playing with other sociable dogs and helping shy pups gain confidence. I’m quite a social butterfly (again, without wings.) Not much is known about my past since I was found as a stray, but everyone at TALGV agrees my name fits me perfectly. I’ve got great manners, especially on leash, and a heart as big as my goofy grin. I’m around a year old, with a soft, wavy coat and a happy, social spirit. I’m a little bit of this and that breed-wise, which adds up to 100% sweetheart and 1000% good girl. I love walks, cuddles, and just being near you. All I need now is my halo… and that’s YOU!

Hi… my name is Buddy,

Adopted 8-23-25

Bright, alert, good natured—these are the standards for a Boxer, and I have them all. I am a very affectionate boy (I will practically bend my body in half as I wiggle when you come to visit). Yes, I can be silly and a little excitable, but I am very smart, so all you need to do is ask me to “sit” (snacks help) and I will plop my backside on the floor and patiently await snuggles. I’m a good walker, and I like to go for rides in cars, especially if there are pup cups involved. I would love a moderately active, patient owner who will ask me to calm down before rewarding me, but I promise to pay you back in a lifetime of wiggles, waggles, and the sweetest of kisses.

Bo

Hi… my name is Bo (aka Rain),

Remember those ads about a famous athlete with the slogan “Bo Knows?” Well, this Bo knows plenty, including sit, down, place and more! I walk like a champ (especially away from the shelter). I love to make friends with other dogs, chase toys like a pro, and turn on the charm with my goofy grin. I’m a Malinois mix – of awesomeness! My looks equal my smarts. I learn fast and, while I enjoy being active, I also enjoy my naps. Cats might not appreciate my enthusiasm, but people sure do! I’m too much for a family with little kids (I might accidentally knock them down). If you’re looking to recruit a teammate to join your family —someone ready for adventure, training fun, and unconditional love, look no further…this Bo knows he’ll fit in perfectly!

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 Kris,

Adopted 6-9-25

 I may be tiny – a “pocket pittie,” but don’t think I won’t run the show, and I’ll start by stealing your heart! I got my name after dodging a car (yep, I’m fast too!) and getting scooped up by a hero named Kris. I was skinny, scrappy, and clearly nobody had given me the love I deserved—until now. The shelter crew feeds me, spoils me, and can confirm I’m a heart-stealer. I’m about 2 years old and learning how to be friends with other dogs.  Puppies are more my speed right now, since I’m still recovering, but I’ll graduate to grown dogs. I’ve got a big personality, a bigger heart, and I’m ready to find my person. If you’re into sass, snuggles, and are easy prey to “puppy dog eyes,” let’s talk.
