Charlie

Hi… my name is Charlie,

Adopted 10-27-24

My silver hair may give me the look of a distinguished gentleman, but I’m also a best buddy kind of guy. For years I lived happily and peacefully with another dog, there were cats at the home, too, and I was described as gentle and tolerant with the kids I met. After my people passed away, I was grateful to come here and quickly made friends among the volunteers. It probably helps that I’m easy to please. I enjoy our walks together, glad to share playtime, and, most of all, love to be petted. You could say that’s my dream list: time together, fun, and, most of all, love. If that sounds good to you, too, there’s an easygoing best buddy kind of guy waiting for you at TALGV. Please just ask for me.

Max

Adopted 4-8-24

MAX is a friendly, sweet, and obedient 10-year-old, 36-pound, Whippet male that needs a new home. His female companion Whippet died last Fall and his senior owners died recently. He is great on a leash, is house trained (asks to go out), and likes to use a doggy door. He is neutered, in good health, and up to date on shots. He has gotten along with children over age 9 and female dogs, but he really dislikes cats. The ideal home for Max would be with another whippet, a yard, and a doggy door. He is a loving and loyal companion that needs someone who is mostly at home. There is no adoption fee. If you will welcome Max into a loving home as part of your family, please call Barbara between 8 AM and 6 PM at 520-326-2170.

Mandy

Adopted 1-7-21

MANDY is a sweet 3-year-old, 22-pound Whippet/Beagle mix girl that needs a loving home. Foster who rescued her would like her to be with a family that has more time for her. Mandy is fully house/potty trained (asks to go out) and loves dogs and cats of all sizes especially little ones her size or smaller. She knows sit and come. She is spayed and takes medication for Valley Fever (she loves her pills inside Marshmallows – about $50 a month). She is leash trained – walks/runs on 1 front leg and the opposite back leg. The lame back leg was apparently fused at birth. Her front leg is due to the Valley Fever. Mandy can easily jump up and down off the couch. She can be left alone at home without any concern, and she likes a crate to use when she wants to rest. Mandy is an Angel… well behaved, loving and all around best snuggler ever! There is no adoption fee for Mandy. If you would welcome her into a loving home, please call Shawna from 8 AM to 5 PM at 520-878-3732.

(Ms.) Charley

Hi… my name is Charley (aka Charlotte),

Adopted 5-19-19

First, in my case Charley is short for Charlotte. I’m a girl Charley—a high-spirited, loves-your-attention female who looks like a Lab/Whippet mix. My former person said I needed a more active home, one with lots of room to run and play, and that sounds great to me! She also said I “ask” to go outside (no accidents since early puppyhood), and understand sit, come, stay, and down. I’m called very smart and independent, so even more training could be fun for me. But you should know that other dogs scare me, and I’ve never been with children. What do I know and like? That’s easy—rides, peanut butter, and the active life. Born in 2017, slender and sweet, I’d love to bring my energy to your happy days, so let’s get together real soon!

Lady

Hi… my name is Lady,

Adopted February 7, 2016

When my family moved out of town, they couldn’t take me with them. But when the door closed between them and me, a window opened at TALGV. I look out that window now, hoping someone will come to meet me up close and personal. If you’re that someone, you’ll see that I’m quiet and calm, but am also very friendly and playful. If you like the toss-a-toy game, I’ll fetch and bring it back to you. I’m a 4-year-old female, a Whippet/Canaan Dog mix with a soft tan coat, weighing about 29 pounds on a slender frame. I know basic commands, how to walk on a leash, my family said I’m good with young people, and probably my best feature is knowing the importance of loving each other forever. Please come for a visit today!

Mona

Hi… my name is Mona.

Adopted June 7, 2015

My sister, Lisa, and I appeared one day in the yard of a home in Sahuarita Heights and stayed around to play with the resident Shih Tzu and the tribe of kids who lived there. The owners fed us outside while they tried to find our owner, but when that didn’t happen after two weeks, decided that we needed more “exposure” to potential adopters so we could find new homes. They said that we were beautiful, playful, happy youngsters who need a good-sized yard and lots of attention, play time, and someone with “puppy-patience.” They’re calling us Whippet mixes, but we have “Shar-Pei-like” ears, so who knows? I’m just a happy amalgam of something! All you need to know is that I’m cute, sweet, and, best of all, (since Lisa has been adopted) I am still available!
