Hi… my name is Mason (aka Marty),

Adopted 3-29-20

Has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate.

Back when I was a really young pup, my person said she couldn’t socialize me because it was too hot for walks. Granted, some Arizona days are best spent somewhere cool, but we all need socialization, right? So, being here has helped me a lot. I’ve attended class with people and other dogs, and have impressed friends with my good behavior there. Oh, I’m still young, strong, and learning, but already walk nicely on a leash, obey basic commands, have been gentle taking treats, and can be very active at times, calm at others. (In my former home, I was also housetrained and used a doggie door.) Training, patience and love equal a winning combination so far, and if you let me be your loyal companion, we could share lots of happy trails together!

Adopted 11-15-18

BREE is a beautiful, energetic, and affectionate, 5-year-old, 60-pound hound mix that was adopted as a puppy, but he needs a new home as owner’s new job will not allow time for his care. Bree is neutered and shots are up to date; he has recently been diagnosed with Valley Fever, but with ongoing treatment there is no physical evidence of it (medical records available). He loves people, is obedience trained, and usually has excellent manners (knows sit, stay, shake, come, lay down). He is housebroken and asks to go out; he would be best as an only dog (no cats, please), walks well on leash, and loves to run. He is good with children of all ages.

There is no adoption fee for this special guy. If you would welcome Bree into a loving home as part of your family, please call Nate between 1 and 8 PM at 619-381-2790.

Hi… my name is Van,

Adopted 7-23-18

Life just isn’t fair! I arrived at TALGV just when what seemed like a whole truckload of fluffy, adorable, nothing-cuter-than-kittens arrived, and being just a smidge older (and black to boot!), everyone was oohing and aahing over THEM and overlooked ME! Well, I’m here to say that they missed out on one sweet, mega-purr boy, but you’ve still got your chance! I was found in the desert fending for myself, but hoping to find a Good Samaritan to save me. It worked then, and I’m hopeful it’ll work now, so just a few minutes with me (and my friend in the same boat, Moony) will convince you that teenagers are “where it’s at!”

Hi… my name is Luchen,

Adopted with Delia 8-5-18

You know how humans describe body types as “apple” or “pear” shaped? Well my housemates, Celine, Delia, and I might be described as “footballs!” That’s not to say that we’re MEANT to be that way, it’s just what happens when you get too much food and too little exercise! Our mom left us (and four dogs!) with HER mom when she moved, and since she already had five rescues, well, you can imagine it was a smidge crowded! But our home was a happy one, and we got along with everyone ­ – especially people – so I’m hopeful that my rumbly purr and furry rubs will convince you that there’s just more of this Manx boy to love!

Hi… my name is Sergio,

Adopted 7-8-18

Friends here call me a “Chiweenie”—combination Chihuahua and Dachshund. Right now, I’m a teeny Chiweenie—under 4 pounds at 7 weeks, making me a very little guy in this big wide world. I was found running down a road in Sahuarita, and came here still feeling quite scared. So I just quietly curled up on my comfy blanket, hoping everything would be okay. And you know what? Everything is better than okay! People have been so kind—complimenting my beautiful black coat, adorable face, and sweet disposition. We cuddle a lot, which makes me feel safe, and pretty soon I’ll be ready to play, too. And so I’m wondering—could I have what they call a “forever home” with someone who could love and teach a puppy like me? Could that be you?

Hi… my name is Vail,

Adopted 10-8-18

Four weeks really isn’t really a long time to let a bereaved gal adjust to a new life! Although my mom’s sister tried to integrate me into her home after my mom died, the resident cat wasn’t exactly welcoming (to put it mildly!), so I’m hoping one more try, in a quiet home, will let my stellar personality come shining through. Since I’m only a year old, naturally I’m still in the playful phase of my life (I love to fetch wadded up paper balls), so if you’re patient with me, shower me with love, and give me time to adjust, I know that you’ll be rewarded with all the companionship I have to share.

Hi… my name is Sheba (aka Angel),

Adopted 7-31-18

“A loving, affectionate, loyal little dog.” That’s how a friend described me, although at 39 pounds, you might call me medium-small size. I’ve also been called very, very intelligent, well behaved and eager to please, as well as “back-side sensitive,” which might be due to the BBs removed from my backside (someone apparently shot at me). My life hasn’t always been easy, but I’ve remained very sweet natured and loving. Pleasingly calm, too, although I’m “dog selective,” which means I like some but not all other dogs. As for people, well, I absolutely LOVE being with people! Fortunately, many of them love me, too. Maybe that could include you! Just shy of 6 years old, I know I could have a very good life for a good long time, if you make me yours.
