Hi… my name is Marley.

Adopted September 30, 2015

The man who found me in the Safeway parking lot on Duval Mine Road said that he would have kept me in a minute, but he didn’t have a fenced yard for me to stretch my legs, so decided I’d do better with another family. I got along fine with his kids and the other animals I met, but since I arrived here I’ve been a little shy (but not “fearful” if that makes sense!), and am giving more tail wags and asking for affection with each passing day. The volunteers say I’m curious about toys (I may never have had the opportunity to play with them, who knows?), and they’re certain that I’ll be worth the investment in helping me understand that good things are in store for me with a new family.

Hi… my name is Arrow.

Adopted June 13, 2015

If you know anything about herding breeds, then I probably don’t have to tell you how great I am (but I will anyway!). I love to rub against you and get tummy rubs, understand “no,” am crate-trained, walk beautifully on leash, and ride well in a car (just say “wanna go for a ride?” and I’m there!). I’m typically very athletic, so would make a great Frisbee or agility dog (you know the old “job to do” thing for us active brainiacs!). I sleep through the night and am on my way to being housetrained (pretty good for a 5-month-old huh?), love to meet new people, and will be very protective of my own when I’m in my new home. So attention all heeler lovers — I’m here waiting for you!

Hi… my name is Truffle.

Adopted January 28,2016

My siblings, Oatmeal, Gingersnap, Shortbread, and my mom, Cookie (see a “theme” here?), were living outdoors in very poor conditions when TALGV’s Outreach Program rescued us. In addition to being malnourished, we had a lot of other issues, but with the TLC (and medical attention) we’ve been getting, we’re soon to be “up and running.” The volunteers say that I’m the shyest of my siblings and need a quiet environment with a kind soul who can show me patience and affection to help me come out of my shell. I’m actually an “easy keeper” when it comes to feeding and exercise, but I just need to learn the social skills that I missed out on in early life. With your help, I know I can reach my full potential and make you proud!

Hi… my name is Curly.

Adopted July 7, 2015

I’ve heard of dogs being abandoned in the desert but never at an obedience school! I might not have been the star of the show, but I couldn’t possibly have been that bad! Well, since that day two years ago when my mom rescued me (and recently had to relinquish me because of her health), I’ve learned most of the things that I was supposed to back then. I totally love kids and people (but I still need training on getting along with other dogs — see below*), so with my outstanding people skills, excellent house manners, and penchant for laps (at 20 pounds I’m just about perfect!). I know there’s another loving home in my future, so this 3-year-old Poodle mix boy is just waiting here for that to come along!

Hi… my name is Anna.

Adopted June 6, 2015.

With my perpetual smile and sparkling personality, you wonder how I came to be abandoned at Anamax Park! Happily, the Sahuarita police found me before anything untoward happened, and now I’m here getting lots of love and assurances that “it was nothing I said!” They’re thinking I’ve got lots of Corgi in my genes (the short legs), but I suppose you might also think of me as a “mini-Golden,” as I’m just as outgoing and sweet as they are. Whatever — at 25 pounds and approximately 2 years of age, I’m going to be the best thing you could have done for yourself this summer!

Hi… my name is Diane.

Adopted June 8, 2015

After I was found, the volunteers were scratching their heads wondering what breed I was because there was “something familiar” about me. Turns out I look just like a Canaan dog, the national dog of Israel, and although probably not pure bred, here’s what the AKC says about me: “The Canaan Dog is blessed with an endearing and responsive personality, loves her family, and is adaptable to many living situations. Life in an apartment with several short daily walks is as agreeable as living in a suburban home with a yard and noisy kids. While this breed is active, its energy level isn’t excessive, and they make wonderful companion dogs.” So that’s pretty much me — about 3 years old, 33 pounds and perfect for anyone!

Hi… my name is Prince.

Adopted August 15, 2015

When I arrived in late 2014, it was actually a good thing that the Sahuarita police picked me up for “vagrancy” because I was running in the middle of the intersection of Rancho Sahuarita Boulevard and Pima Mine Road, and that’s a pretty dangerous place for a canine! Since I was already neutered, I guess I had belonged to someone at one time. I was adopted in November 2014,  but now I need to find another family to shower my affection on. I’m a magnificent white Siberian husky/shepherd mix with one blue and one brown eye, and I totally adore people. All I ask out of life is attention, an active family, and a place to call my own forever. That’s not too much is it?
