Sara

Hi… my name is Sara.

Adopted March 6, 2015

“She’s extremely friendly and ridiculously cute! She is very well behaved, seeks to be petted, and responds well to instruction.” That’s what my mom’s son said about me when he very sadly had to bring me to TALGV. Mom passed away a while ago, and the family couldn’t keep me, but since I’m such a sweetie, they just knew that it wouldn’t be hard for me to convince another family that I should be an integral part of their lives! I’m a happy, gentle, 7-year-old, Australian shepherd mix lady who has lived with another dog, know basic commands, and will undoubtedly be the light of your life. If you’ve ever owned (or been owned by!) an Aussie, you’ll know what you’re in for — total head-over-heels adoration!

Hokmah

Hi… my name is Hokmah.

Adopted February 28, 2015

Hokmah comes with TALGV’s Free Vet Care for Life

Named after a Hebrew word in the Kabbalah for “wisdom and experience,” my dad said, “Hokmah enjoys wrestling with me and playing with a laser light, fuzzy balls, and mice toys (he goes insane over catnip!). He is very loving and nearly doglike and is enamored of water from all sources (the faucet and my leg after a shower for example!), and usually sleeps on my tummy, by my legs, or in a chair near me.” I’m a handsome Russian Blue chap, and as a senior (in age, not in demeanor!), I come with TALGV’S Free Vet Care for Life. I loved my dad dearly, so would be so happy if I could continue that tradition in another peaceful, caring home.

Iris

Hi… my name is Iris.

Adopted February 28, 2015

Iris comes with TALGV’s Free Vet Care for Life

It’s pretty sad when my name, Isis (which means giver of life and magic), had to be changed because of a group of extremists, but the connotation is so bad, pretty much everyone agreed. I lived with my dad (and two other cats, Hokmah and Sehkmet, who I wasn’t all that fond of!) for most of my life, and he said that although I’m a shy lady, I did enjoy playing with laser lights and ball toys, and sleeping in a “fort” he made of sheets for us (what a great guy!). I’m a beautiful solid black lady, and as a senior I come with TALGV’S Free Vet Care for Life. I loved my dad dearly, so would be awfully happy if I could continue that tradition in another peaceful, caring home.

Arrived February 8, 2015

Sehkmet

Hi… my name is Sehkmet.

Adopted February 22, 2015

Named after an Egyptian goddess of healing, power, and might, my dad said, “Sehkmet is very loving and will head bump whenever I want and communicates very well nonverbally. He was abandoned by one family and then abused by another, so he had a rough start early on.” I lived with him for most of my life though, and during that time he said I was very full of love if you will only love me back. I’m a sweet tabby and white gentleman and being a senior (in age but not in demeanor!), I come with TALGV’s Free Vet Care for Life. I loved my dad dearly, so would be so happy if I could continue that tradition in another peaceful, caring home.

Safari

Hi… my name is Safari.

Adopted March 12, 2015

You don’t see many gals like me around even though my breed (Xoloitzcuintle or Xolo for short!) has been around for thousands of years! Your first thought might be, “Oh, boy — Mexican hairless! — no grooming to worry about,” but you’d be wrong. Just like humans, we need some sun protection and periodic bathing to keep our skin nice and moist, but with a little girl like me, that should be a snap. Although most of my time will be spent in your lap, I do love a nice stroll every day (where I walk nicely in the “heel” position!), playing with my toys, and romping with other small dogs. I’ve never been around kids, so I think it would be great to have a stay-at-home mom or dad to lavish my love on!

Arrived February 7, 2015.

Checkers

Hi… my name is Checkers

Adopted February 18, 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.

Leon

Hi… my name is Leon.

Kali

Hi… my name is Kali.

Adopted February 27, 2015

When my family brought me home to live with their teenage kids, three cats, and three other dogs, they found that the dogs tended to overwhelm me (although I enjoyed the kids and the cats), so decided I’d be best as an only canine. At heart, I’m a playful gal and love playing ball and with my Kong, and while initially I’ve been a bit anxious here, every day I’m getting more comfortable with the routine. The volunteers say that when you interact with me one-on-one, I just light up and focus on how best to please you. I’m a black Lab/Staffie mix, only about 11 months old, so there’s still a lot of puppy there just ripe for molding into what everyone wants in a housemate: pure perfection!

Arrived January 29, 2015.

Dreidl

Hi… my name is Dreidl.

Adopted August 15, 2015

Dreidl comes with TALGV’s FREE Vet Care for Life.

If you’re looking for a “true” rescue story, then lend an ear to the tale I have to tell about my two friends Candy, Claus, and me because we’re shining examples of what a difference a little (well, a LOT!) of attention, care, and good food can make! We were rescued on Sahuarita Road when a Good Samaritan stopped, opened his car door and we all gratefully piled in. We each had serious cases of mange, were undernourished, frightened, and were in urgent need of care. Well, that was before Christmas, and after many weeks of that loving care, we’re all turning into gentle, laid back dogs who want nothing more in life than safe loving homes where we can strut our new stuff! Oh, and we come with TALGV’s Free Vet Care for Life, too!

Arrived December 20, 2014.
