Hi… my name is Twilight.
Adopted June 27, 2015
I was found running on Sahuarita Road near the Walden Grove High School with two other dogs. Thankfully we were rescued by a wonderful TALGV volunteer, and, happily for my two companions, their owner arrived immediately to reclaim them. My story, however, is a bit different in that my mom never came for me, so now I’m officially a TALGV dog and am available to brighten up your life! I’m a sweet (but a little sad!) black and white Staffie mix lady, and am hopeful that there will be a caring family out there to help get on with the business of being your best pal.

Hi… my name is Bucky.
Adopted October 19, 2015
My mom found me on Old Nogales Highway when I was only three weeks old. She already had quite a few rescues, but was going to keep me anyway, so when the expenses of keeping a whole lot of hungry mouths fed became too much for her, she decided that I’d be better off in my own place with an active family. I get along with other dogs okay but am not fond of cats, so if you’re looking for a fun-loving guy to spend time with, I’d be an excellent choice if I do say so myself! I’m a handsome, brindle-colored Catahoula Leopard Dog mix who’ll thank you every day for giving me a new start in life.

Hi… my name is Rosie Posie.
Adopted June 30, 2015
After I was discovered under a rosebush with five newborn kittens, the homeowner was nice enough to let me stay there until we were old enough to go to a TALGV foster home. Even though I’ve been a really good mama in raising my kids, I’m still glad that I’ve made my last contribution to the kitten world and can now find a place of my own! I’m a youngster myself at only 18 months or so, so I’ll undoubtedly spend lots of time exploring, playing, and doing my best to entertain you. I know that many cats think the world out there holds a lot of charm (the old “grass is greener” syndrome), but I know better — and will be happy to say farewell to “freedom” in a new home with you!

Hi… my name is Blue,
Adopted April 10, 2016
When you come to shelter with ten other cats, all of which are black (except one!), you figure your chances at getting adopted are petty slim! Well, I’m hoping that TALGV is the special place it is and proves that concept wrong by making sure our attributes and individual virtues are “out there” for all to see! We came from an overcrowded situation, so we’re all keeping pretty low profiles at the moment, but in no time our “real selves” are sure to emerge. I’m said to be very playful (not all of us know how to do that yet it seems!), am 14 months old, with white on my chest and “bikini area,” and am looking for someone special to whisk me away to a new life!

We came from an overcrowded situation, so we’re all keeping pretty low profiles at the moment, but in no time our “real selves” are sure to emerge. None of us have had a lot of “play experience,” but the volunteers are teaching us that that really is a thing that cats do, so we’re all trying to get the hang of being the friendly, outgoing felines we were born to be. If you could help me in that endeavor, I’d be ever so grateful!

Hi… my name is Makumbo.
Adopted April 24, 2016
I’ll bet you didn’t know that “makumbo” means “legs” in the Shona language! And I’ll also bet that my mom didn’t know that I’d grow up to fit that name perfectly either! I’m a sleek, velvety black long-legged boy who came to TALGV from an overcrowded situation along with ten other black cats. At first I was pretty shy, but now that I’ve been here a while, the volunteers are showing me that the social life really is the best life, and I look forward to visitors who’ll sit in my room and get lost in my luxuriously soft coat and delightful persona. Turns out it only took attention, affection, and a little patience to transform me, so why not help me continue my metamorphosis on your lap?

Hi… my name is Lola.
Adopted May 7, 2015
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.

I’m said to be very mellow and easygoing (what some humans “of a certain age” might call a “cool dude”!), my fur is really called “black smoke” because of its white undercoat, and am looking for someone special to whisk me away to a new life!
