Hi… my name is Lefty,

Adopted 7-7-23

COMES WITH VET CARE SUPPORT FOR LIFE

My heart is in the process of healing. Not only did I lose my home, I also lost the most important people and the only family I’ve ever known since they adopted me as a puppy over twelve years ago. I’m fortunate to be in a foster home where my broken heart can mend. I’m shy when first meeting new people, but I’m a friendly girl, accustomed to a quiet home.  I do enjoy walks where I can inspect all the wonderful scents and enjoy the outdoors when it’s cool outside. Since I’m one of the amazing Senior dogs, my adopter will get the added benefit of my having Vet Care Support for Life.  Please check back for updates as my foster mom learns more about me, but make an appointment to meet me soon.

Hi… my name is Sedona,

Adopted 9-2-23

Like the famous town known for its peacefulness and beauty,  I long for a forever home where calmness reigns. My prior environment was like living in New York City: too much of everything – people, activity, noise. It’s overwhelming for a 30-pound adorable girl with big ears like me. Now that I’m at TALGV, I’m finding my inner peace while enjoying the security my crate provides me. The human friends I have made here know that I will be their BFF for treats. I love toys, know several commands, and am house-trained.  I’m working on my leash manners so that we’ll be able to leisurely explore our surroundings together. Are you an introvert like me, preferring small groups over crowds? Peaceful over hyper? Relaxed vs. restless? If so, we won’t need much more than each other.

Hi… my name is Mya,

Adopted with Doobie 5-25-23

COMES WITH VET CARE SUPPORT FOR LIFE

Before coming to TALGV, I lived with my former person for nearly my whole life! But she moved away and couldn’t take me along, so now I’m looking forward to a new home with a new person (or people) to love. My happy dream is meeting someone special who appreciates a gentle, loving dog like me.  Maybe they’ll like my Doberman/ Shepherd look and will probably be glad I’ve learned good house manners in the past; I’ve “asked” to go outside, was good in the house when the owner was gone and lived peacefully with another dog.  For me, TALGV offers Vet Care Support for Life.  From me, I offer the heart of a loyal companion, content just to be yours if that makes you happy, too. Let’s meet and find out if it could!

Hi… my name is Vanilla Wafer,

My sister, Oreo, and I are known as the “Cookie Girls”, and not only because of our names: We’re sweet and bring lots of joy.  I’m the very shy one, but given time to get to know you, you’ll see the “Silly Nilly” girl I really am. I love to go to the TALGV play yard and sunbathe in the kiddie pools.  My volunteer friends taught me things called ‘car rides’ magically transport us to fun places with new sights, sounds, and sniffari walks. I’m learning that other dogs can be fun to play with, but again, I’m shy and they need to be patient and earn my trust. I must say, this ‘learning how to be a dog’ is certainly fun! I hope someone recognizes what a wonderful companion I can become – with time!

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 Oreo,

When I arrived at TALGV, I had NO idea how to be a dog, much less how to interact with people. Boy, have I come a LONG way! Not only am I making new people friends (hint: treats will win me over faster), BUT I get to go on these fun things called “outings” with my sister, “Nilla.”  We eagerly get in a magic transporter called a “car” which takes us to places to explore all the sights, sounds, and where we can collect as many “sniffies” as possible. Heaven! PLUS, I’m also making friends with other dogs – both on these outings and in the play yard. Now, I’m still a little shy, but time (and treats) will help you earn my trust. “Oreo” may be “America’s Favorite Cookie.” I just need to be YOURS.

Hi… my name is Fig Newton,

Adopted 10-30-24

My friends call me “Figgy,” and I’d love for you to, also. I might be a bit shy at first, but give me a little time and I’ll reveal my smart, obedient, and super fun side. I’m a Star Student of TALGV’s training program and know a bunch of commands which I’ll happily show you. Bonus! I have great leash manners to boot! My manners are so impressive, that you’d never guess I was rescued from the desert as a 6-month-old pup. Do you have another dog? Awesome! I’ve had lots of doggie pals and roommates. If you have a secure yard, we can play Fetch—I’d definitely win a gold medal if Fetch were an Olympic sport! You’ll be the real winner when you add my smart, loving, handsome self to your family!  (7-2024)

Hi… my name is Captain Crunch,

Adopted 4-8-23

I am a medium-sized, Shepherd-mix boy who was rescued with four other pups on a Tucson street. The only crime committed by this cereal gang: We were unwanted. (Oh, and maybe a little jaywalking.) Fortunately, some good Samaritans spotted us and brought us to TALGV for a chance at a better life. My volunteer friends say I’m small in stature for a Shepherd mix. They also say I’m a little shy—but that’s to be expected when you’re scared—and that I’m a sweet, mild-mannered fellow who could use some training in basic commands. Are you a patient leader who can teach this Captain the ins-and-outs of being your second in command? And can you provide some ‘crunch,’ too? If so, I’ll provide the love. C’mon, let’s hear it: “Aye, aye, Captain!”

Hi… my name is Jason,

Adopted with Daphne 5-7-23

Even though I was apprehensive when I first arrived at TALGV, I sensed my life had changed for the better. I know my gal pal Daphnie was nervous, and I was happy that we could offer each other support. It didn’t take long before I realized this was exactly where I should be. Now I’m making new friends, going for walks (I do quite well), and looking forward to finding my forever home. I’ve heard, by word of mouth, that I need to learn some basic commands. I can be affectionate, but I’m still a little shy…until I feel comfortable with someone. Naturally, being on the receiving end of affection is something I really enjoy most, but I’m ready to share the mutual “giving” and “receiving” with you when we get home.
