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.

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!

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!

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.

Hi… my name is Boots,

Adopted December 14, 2015

Boots comes with FREE Vet Care for Life.

Just because there’s a little grey on my face, doesn’t mean there isn’t still a lot of spring in my step! After my dad died, I was at sixes and sevens ‘cause we were together all our lives, but now that I’m here, I’m showing everyone how much I adore affection. They say I’m especially enamored of belly rubs and behind the ear massages, and I love demonstrating my mastery of “sit” and “down” commands. I walk nicely on leash, but since I’m not overly fond of other dogs, I do tend to pull a bit when encountering them (they think I’m just being protective of my “person”). I’m a senior Lab mix lady (so I come with Free Vet Care for Life), who is definitely ready to be back in a home setting!

Adopted February 2, 2015.

PRECIOUS is a beautiful and sweet 2-year-old boxer who was found in the desert with her 5 puppies. New family is unable to keep her, but recommend her to a family since she loves children. She knows sit, come, stay and fetch. She is housebroken but spends her time outside now because of finder’s unwelcoming dog. Her shots are up to date, and she will have a certificate for spay courtesy of TALGV. She seems healthy but needs to add weight because of her puppies (3 of which have already found homes). Precious is leash trained, loves car rides, and would love to share your company and the warmth of your home on these cold winter days and nights. There is no adoption fee for Precious.

If you would welcome Precious into a loving home as part of your family, please call Donna between 8 AM and 8 PM at 520-484-3844.
