Jet

Hi… my name is Jet,

Adopted October 8, 2016

Do you know the best part of being a stray dog? It’s when you stop being a stray because people become your friends and they say, “Hey buddy, can I help you out?” Wow! I was so happy when that happened to me! My rescuer found me on the streets of Green Valley, where I’d been scrounging for food and not always coming up with anything; I was hungry and too thin. And I’ll readily admit that I was awfully lonely, especially because by nature I’m a sweet, friendly guy who likes hanging out with people. Now I’m okay, safe and cared for, but I’m watching for you and hoping you’re looking for me, too. I’m the 9-month-old black Lab pup who’s ready to follow your lead down lots of happy trails ahead.

Daisy

Hi… my name is Daisy,

Adopted August 27, 2016

The place I came from didn’t have electricity or running water, so the first thing I noticed at TALGV was the comfort of air conditioning. Before long, I received something called a bath—the raining indoors thing was weird, but ended up making me feel really good. Since then, I’ve received lots of compliments on my soft brindle coat and I love the attention. Please know that even when I’m feeling shy, your affection is always welcome! Knowing that someone cares makes every day better; it helps with my training as I learn things that good dogs know, and just makes me happy. I’m a sweet Boxer/Hound mix female, about 48 pounds and 4 years old, and if you could find it in your heart to take me home, I’ll love you back forever!

Ash

Hi… my name is Ash,

Adopted October 19, 2016

Oh me, oh my. I don’t know what happened in my life, but all of a sudden my mom’s gone and I’m in this new place where there are so many other cats and don’t know any of them! I’ve heard people say how nice it is here, but when you’re used to a quiet, one-person home, the change is an awfully big shock. My senior mom had to go to a nursing home, so now I’m at sixes and sevens trying to get my bearings. At 4 years old, I’ve got lots more living to do and more strolls to take (and bell toys to play with once I’m comfortable!), so won’t you help me over this current hurdle so I can get on with doing just that?

Xavier

Hi… my name is Xavier,

Adopted September 23, 2016

When I take a quiet moment to reflect, I appreciate how blessed I am to be here. I was a lost dog, found under some bleachers, so I’m grateful for the food, shelter, and, most of all, the friendly people who take care of me now. And then in some other quiet moments, I’m snoozing, because I’m a lively young guy who expends lots of energy at play and needs his nap time, too! When you come for a visit, you might see me lounging on my bed, but I’ll definitely perk up to meet you. I’m an active 1-year-old Heeler mix male, black and white, kind of little at just under 24 pounds, but full of life. Could you be the one to give me the best gift of all—a loving home!

Summer

Hi… my name is Summer,

Adopted September 12, 2016

Thanks for looking at my pictures. My biography is under construction. Please stop back again to read about me or… even better… stop in at TALGV to meet me soon. Kennels are open 10-2 every day.

Angel

Hi… my name is Angel,

Adopted September 24, 2016

Here at TALGV, my roommate has been my mom, Blondie, and that’s been so cool for me. I’m just 5 months old and still little—about 17 pounds (and growing), so being with mom has been very reassuring. Plus, she teaches by example. If you come visit, you’ll see that I already know a lot about eating, drinking, playing, napping, and trotting out in the sunshine to watch the world go by. The volunteers say I’m very cute and smart, too, making great progress on leash training, but I think my strong suit is something I’ve always known—how to love. I’ve loved my mom, my siblings, and chances are very good that I’ll love you, too. So what do you say? Could I be your adorable puppy today and your devoted companion forever?

Montgomery

Hi… my name is Montgomery (aka Monty),

Adopted September 13, 2016

“Mister Personality,” that’s what my mom always called me! “Lively” and “communicative” went along with that too, so you know I’m not going to be the shrinking violet type! Sadly, after mom died, her daughter was unable to take my housemates, Marcella, Casper, and me to live with her, so having come from TALGV originally, we’re back to say “howdy” to everyone and start looking for new people to charm. My life was a quiet but happy one (we all slept with mom to keep her from getting lonely), and I really enjoyed playing with toys and my friends, so a home with another feline would probably be fine (or you could always take us together – that way you’d know there’d be instant “peace in the valley”!).

Mia

Hi… my name is Mia,

Adopted 7-16-18

You know when I was a kitten, I used to be really embarrassed by my goofy “Charlie Chaplin” moustache (being a girl and all!), but now that I’ve matured, I kind of think it’s one of my defining features! According to my people, I’m also known for being “in love” with eating, sleeping, and cuddling! My wonderful dad had a life-saving heart transplant, so to be sure that nothing interfered with his healing, my family was told to “rehome” my best canine friend and me. Life often has a way of throwing curve balls at you, but I know that since I’ve had a wonderful life and really enjoy people (even kids!), that finding a new family will be like hitting a home run for me!

Marcella

Hi… my name is Marcella,

Adopted with Casper 12-16-17

Although I’m not a “lap cat” per se, I’m more of a “sit-beside-you-as-close-as-I-can-get” kind of lady, and a real sweetheart to boot who still likes to chase toys. Sadly, after mom died, no one was able to take my housemate, Casper, and me, so having come from TALGV originally we’re back to say “howdy” and start looking for new people to charm. Everyone is calling us “Romeo and Juliet” because we’re seen cuddling in a cubby together, and although we don’t have to go together, it sure would be nice! I’m said to be outgoing and social and am just biding my time waiting for “that certain someone” to come meet me, have their heart melted, and “feel the love”!

Casper

Hi… my name is Casper,

Adopted with Marcella 12-16-17

“Casper is a lap cat and was devoted to his owner. He’s laid back, loving, and a joy to have around.” That’s what my mom’s daughter said about me. Sadly, after mom died, no one was able to take my housemate, Marcella, and me, so having come from TALGV originally we’re back to say “howdy” and start looking for new people to charm. Everyone is calling us “Romeo and Juliet” because we’re seen cuddling in a cubby together, and although we don’t have to go together, it sure would be nice!

Winston

Hi… my name is Winston,

Adopted August 28, 2016

To stay calm on busy days at the shelter, it helps to be a pretty easygoing guy. The volunteers credit me with just that, saying that even when there’s lots going on around me here, I keep my cool. Granted, I’m a little scared, too, but my rescuer said I was the same at his house; “doesn’t bark,” he noted, and that was in a home with three other dogs. I did my best to be a good guest—being friendly, following basic commands—and after my home wasn’t found and my rescuer brought me to TALGV, I’ve tried to just keep being a friendly, good dog. I’m 17 pounds, a tan Wire Haired Terrier mix male, who may be calm, but you’ll make my heart pound with happiness if you make me yours.

Red

Hi… my name is Red,

Adopted September 21, 2016

I love making that special human-dog connection! We just look at each other and it’s like we’re having a conversation. There’s one question I can’t answer, though, and that’s how did I get lost? Guess the important thing is that I was found and now I’m here, hoping to meet you! The volunteers named me Red due to my extraordinarily handsome red coat (they flatter me), and weighed me in at just under 60 pounds. I’m a young Lab mix male, and my rescuer said I was good with kids. I’m a playful guy who knows how to have fun, plus I’m practicing “sit,” and other such things because I’m eager to please my human companions. How about we meet today, and see if we can make a happy connection of the forever kind!
