Sam

Hi… my name is Sam,

Adopted October 10, 2015

If you’re looking for “big, old softies,” come meet me! I was adopted in December 2014 but am now back at TALGV through no fault of my own. Last year I was found on Sahuarita Road, and I’ve got to tell you it’s sure swell being out of harm’s way and getting three squares a day! I’m a “glutton for attention” they say, and despite my size, I’m really an “easy walker.” I’m a black, 90-pound, Mastiff mix, and have a squiggly tail that will enchant you as much as my personality. I know that any family that has a home with space for a big guy like me will be all the happier with me in it! You just have to meet me to find out!

PS Thanks to recent owner for providing “goofy” photos of Sam.

Ginger

Hi… my name is Ginger,

Adopted November 10, 2015

With amber waves of grain eyes that match my golden fur, you might not even think to look any further to see my personality — but that would be a mistake! A woman in Sahuarita was out looking for her errant dog (you gotta keep an eye on those critters!) when I spied her and decided to follow her home. Happily she found her dog, but sadly for me it wasn’t going to be a match made in heaven. But since I’m such a sweet, young thing, I hope it won’t be long before someone recognizes me for the treasure I am and makes me a “can’t refuse” offer to take me home, because you can be sure I’ll take you up on it in a minute!

Maxx

Hi… my name is Maxx,

Adopted November 13, 2015

I was a guy in need of attention and, lucky me, I came to the right place! The attention I needed was medical for my skin issues, and you can imagine the great relief I’ve felt now that things are getting better. With medicine and special baths, my hair is growing back and I’m my happy self again. I’m a friendly, lively, West Highland White Terrier, still self-assured and hardy. As the AKC says, “The Westie loves people and makes an affectionate addition to any family. This devoted, happy and faithful dog also makes a wonderful travel companion due to its small size.” That’s all true, I can tell you, but please come see for yourself. I’m a 9-year-old, 20-pound Westie, and I just know my luckiest day will be when I meet you.

Herbie

Hi… my name is Herbie,

Adopted November 8, 2015

When my little Chihuahua buddy and I were lost, I was glad to keep an eye on him. Must be the Mastiff in me that makes me such a nurturing kind of guy. Now, happily, my buddy’s been adopted, and I’m ready to give my heart and attention to someone new. I’m a big guy but not overwhelmingly so, right around 75 pounds, with a rich-copper color coat, and I’m very calm when walking on a leash alongside my person. If you ask me, I’m a great size for a snuggle, and enjoying that is in my loving nature, too. People talk about my sweet charm and quiet dignity, and I appreciate those lovely words, but most of all, I want to hear someone say, “let’s go home.” Could that someone be you?

Caramel

Hi… my name is Caramel,

Adopted December 11, 2015

Since my rescuers had two dogs and a bird and were allergic to cats, it was really grand of them to have kept me for two weeks anyway! But they said that during that time I was very lovable with both adults and kids, so that may have made it a smidge easier! It’s obvious that I’ve been someone’s friend once, since I’m an outgoing guy who loves being “messed with,” and it’s also evident that I’d run into a cactus or something pretty scratchy, as my nose had sores and scratches all over it, but happily they’re healing well now. Practically any cat with orange tabby in it is likely to be “outgoing,” and I’m no exception, so why don’t you make sure that I’m “going out” with you!

Tyke

Hi… my name is Tyke,

Adopted October 11, 2015

I’m the first to admit I’m shy. If something happened to make me shy, it remains a mystery because I was found out on the street, all alone, without a history to share. That’s okay, though, because I love the company here and my shyness doesn’t stop me from appreciating new friends. TALGV volunteers take me for walks and spend extra time visiting with me, letting me know I’m safe. And it turns out that sometimes, when you really feel safe, you can start being your true, happy self. I’m a 3-year-old Dobie mix male with a sharp-looking black and tan coat, and bright, hopeful eyes. If you’re the special someone who can see my brilliant potential and give me the home of my dreams, you’re the one I’m hoping to see real soon.

Mica

Comes with Free Vet Care for Life.

This is what they said when I came in with my friend, Cinders: “These cats are very hungry, so feed them as much as they want. Their owner fell and was on the floor for three days before being found, so they probably weren’t fed.” Sadly, he needed long-term care, so now we do too — in our “golden” years. Although we hadn’t been to a vet for years, TALGV is making sure we’re getting caught up on our immunizations (and of course we come with Free Vet Care for Life). To give you a nudge in the “adopt-a-senior” department, I’m sharing this quote: “Blessed be the person who takes in an older pet, for their time with us is more important than our time with them.” I’m hoping that’s a “gotcha” that’ll win you over!
