Animal League News

Hi… my name is Leprechaun,

Adopted 6-10-24

Although my siblings and I were once tiny puppies without a home, we were also twice blessed: our mom was with us and we were brought to The Animal League! Here we’ve been safe and loved, and have quickly become the happy, active pups we are today. I’m Leprechaun, the beautiful tan shepherd mix female with sweet brown eyes. Along with my siblings, I’m said to be doing well on daily walks on leash, and we continue to learn commands and other things good dogs know.  Since we’re already experts at having fun, I say the future is bright. Of course, I’m hoping my future will be in my forever home, loved and guided by a very special someone. If you could be my someone—the one who chooses me—please visit 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 Shamrock,

Adopted 6-14-25

Who’s looking for a social butterfly with a PhD in Fetch and a minor in Belly Rubs? I arrived at TALGV with my six puppies, who’ve since been adopted. With my ‘mom’ role firmly in the past, it’s my turn to find my own family!  I’m smart, independent, and always looking for my next big adventure -preferably with 2 and/or 4-legged friends! When I’m not making new pals, I’ll be lounging on your lap demanding head scratches. You won’t mind because I’m so adorable and loving.  While I’ve been tested with cats, they might find my enthusiasm… a bit much. No couch potatoes allowed – I’m too busy exploring the world! So, if you’re looking for a girl who is ready to chase after life (and maybe a ball), I’m your girl. Let’s make some memories!

Hi… my name is Peach,

Adopted 9-7-24

Maybe you can tell at a glance that I’m a hound dog mix. The deep brown eyes, floppy ears, and rust-colored coat. But it will take a little longer to get to know me because I’m shy around people I don’t know. Sweet but shy. Happily, I’ve made friends with some of the volunteers, who have told me more than once that I’m super smart. Thanks to them, I’m learning basic commands, proper leash walking, and other things good dogs know. For company, I share my run with another dog, and my siblings and I are very good at energetic, fun-filled times in the play yard. Sounds good, right? But one thing is missing.  I long to be someone’s dog, in a forever home where love abides. Could you give this shy dog a chance?

Hi… my name is Nectarine,

Adopted 8-24-24

In my young dog world, it’s always a good time for fun, or food, or a cozy nap. Do I hear you ask about learning time? Well, sometimes the TALGV trainers think they’re sneaking it in, but my siblings and I are wise to that. And happy about it. We like to learn!  Leash walking, basic commands, proper dog manners—it’s all good. And since we’re “super smart hound dogs” (to quote several observant volunteers), we’re up for the challenge of learning more. For me, my natural self-confidence can be another plus. I can be the energetic leader among shyer dogs and have also made friends among TALGV humans. Could you and I be friends, too…maybe even best friends? I’m willing! Let’s meet and see if we could share a happy, active life together.

Hi… my name is Apple,

Adopted 9-14-24

I started life as a baby sister in a litter of hound dog mixes, and it’s been great to have familiar, playful siblings. We still resemble each other—floppy ears, deep brown eyes, rust-colored coats—but now we have individual personalities. Of course, we all like to have fun, even adventures, and we’ve learned lots of good dog things, like leash walking and basic commands. And while TALGV friends say I’m super smart and sweet, I admit to being shy, content with those I know but needing reassurance around strangers. Maybe it takes an extra supply of patience and understanding to adopt a shy dog, but please know that I, too, dream of my very own happy home with someone to love forever. I hesitate to ask but I’m wondering…could you be my someone?

Hi… my name is Samantha (aka Sasha),

What do you call a one-year-old shepherd mix with a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging? Furry Flirtypants?  Cuddle Commander? Supreme Snuggler?  Any and all of them would fit. I may be young, but I’m in the process of learning good manners, both in a home and out on walks with my human friends. I’m an adventurous and active girl who loves exploring the world around me with my favorite people. I dream of finding a forever home where I can share my boundless affection and bring joy to everyone I meet. With my loyal spirit I know I’ll make the perfect addition to a loving family. Are you the one who will help me on my journey to become the BEST girl I can possibly be?

Hi… my name is Buddy,

Adopted 5-18-24

I was just a puppy when I was adopted from TALGV eight years ago. Since then, I’ve gained knowledge and experience. I respond well to “sit” and “lay down,” walk easily on a leash, and ride well in a car. I’m calm and have very good manners, even when left alone in the house (never outside). I need a secure yard to run in with a wall that’s over three feet high. I’m very friendly and love ear/head rubs and soft beds. I enjoy meeting people and get along well with other dogs. Cows, rabbits, and ducks don’t phase me, but I will chase lizards and scare away birds. Every family needs a buddy, and THIS Buddy needs a family. Please be mine!

Hi… my name is Beebo,

Adopted 7-8-24

Aren’t I pretty in pink? Well, the truth is, I’m effortlessly stunning regardless of any color palette I’m wearing. My nickname could be “bee-bop,” as that’s what I like to do in the comfort of my foster home, where I take pride in my refined manners such as being housetrained and only playing with my toys instead of any of my foster family’s belongings. As for more talent, Esther Williams has nothing on me as I will happily splash around in a play pool.
(Okay, so synchronized swimming might be a stretch, but my charm makes up for it!)
While initially reserved, I blossom into a sweet companion when given space to warm up to you. Contact TALGV to arrange a meeting and discover more about me!

Hi… my name is Tinkerbell,

Adopted 5-8-24

COMES WITH VET CARE SUPPORT FOR LIFE

Originally, when first arriving here, there were three of us; Dotty, Evie, and me. Since the other two were bonded, I was happy to see them go home together, with their new, proud parents. I had joined the little family sometime after the other two, and even though we all got along very well, I never actually bonded with them. I’m an outgoing, self-proclaimed lap dog who’s incredibly sweet. I love people, being petted, and having someone make a fuss over me. I can “sit” when asked, walk well on a leash, and come with vet care support for life. I’m an active, happy and loving girl, who’s looking for someone who could be looking for me. Someone to share my retirement with, preferably someone with a soft lap. Do you think we’ve found each other? I do!
