Hi… my name is Rico.
I was adopted on September 6, 2014.
Whew! I just made it here by the skin of my teeth! I was being chased by a pack of coyotes on Ruby Road in Rio Rico when a rancher drove by and rescued me. He checked out a nearby ranch, but no one was home, so I’m awfully glad TALGV could take me in. I’m a delightful hound/shepherd mix boy and in typical puppy fashion, I love people, romping with other dogs, and just generally being an easy-going, energetic guy. With the good genes from both my breeds, you know that I’m going to be the star of the show in no time!

It was actually a good thing that the Sahuarita police picked me up for “vagrancy” because I was running in the middle of the intersection of Rancho Sahuarita Boulevard and Pima Mine Road, and that’s a pretty dangerous place for a canine! Since I was already spayed, I guess I belonged to someone at one time, but now I need to find another family to shower my affection on. I’m a magnificent black and white American Bulldog/Staffie mix, and I totally adore people. All I ask out of life is attention, an active family, and a place to call my own forever. That’s not too much is it?

Adopted January 1, 2015.
When I first arrived as a teensy baby I was part of “the cereal litter” and went to live with a foster mom for a while until I was old enough to “mingle” here. All my siblings have found homes except my brother, Wheatie, and me so I’m getting a little antsy! Despite how much fun it is to have tons of playmates, like every feline, I really want a home and family of my own where I can participate in all the kitten activities that aren’t available to me here (like helping with chores, reading the paper, doing Internet searches — stuff like that!). I’m a darling, black and white boy who’s past that “go-go goofy” stage but still eager to spend lots of time entertaining you!

Adopted December 18, 2014.
When I arrived as a teensy baby I went to live with a foster mom until I was old enough to “mingle” here. I had an eye infection that necessitated its removal, but that doesn’t bother me one bit — as a matter of fact, I think it adds a bit of “pirate-like dash” to my looks! Despite how much fun it is to have tons of playmates, I really want a home and family of my own where I can participate in all the kitten activities that aren’t available to me here (like helping with chores, reading the paper, doing Internet searches — stuff like that!). I’m a charming Siamese mix boy who’s past that “go-go goofy” stage but still eager to spend lots of time entertaining you!

There wasn’t enough room for another big dog (well, 44 pounds isn’t THAT big!) at TALGV when I was found, so I stayed in a boarding kennel for a month until some space opened up. When the volunteers visited me, though, they said that I was happy, friendly girl whose “whole body wagged” when you met her. Now that I’ve got my own space here, I’m getting tons more attention, walks several times a day, learning lots of important commands, and getting some play time in too. The people at the kennel were nice, but it’s way better here — especially since now visitors will see what a sweetie I am and want to give me a new home! I’m a gorgeous, glossy ebony Staffie mix, and I know in my heart that the perfect family for me is just waiting around the corner. Why not make that you?
