Mardi

Hi… my name is Mardi,

Adopted 1-23-22

I feel like Kermit’s song, “It’s not easy being green … you tend to blend in with other things…” was written just for my roommates and me! Our lives have been a series of ups and downs – spending our early months outside, tolerating the intake pokes and prods when arriving here, and enduring a weeks-long ringworm protocol in isolation without a lot of “people time” – so we basically missed the joy of our kittenhood and are being fairly low-profile right now. But we’re youngsters nonetheless, and given patience, safe and loving homes, with a smidgen of time, I bet we’ll all become the companions we’re meant to be. Won’t you PLEASE give us that chance?

Zane (R.B.)

Hi… my name is Zane,

RAINBOW BRIDGE 10-5-21

When I arrived the volunteers said I looked like “forty miles of bad road.” It’s pretty obvious that I’ve had a hard life and lost a lot of battles, especially considering that I was declawedat one time so have not an easy time catching my food and protecting myself. I can’t tell you what a relief it is be in a safe place where food is at my beck and call (and Vet Care Support for Life, too). Despite a rough life, I’m the sweetest (and most grateful) guy in the world, so won’t you take me home and make the rest of my life the things cats dream of?

Bogey

Hi… my name is Bogey,

Adopted 9-25-21

Like the theme song from Casablanca, that other Bogey’s movie says, “It’s still the same old story, a fight for love and glory…” but I say all I need is the love! Of course I wouldn’t say no to “the fundamental things.” I’m speaking of my new forever home, one so secure that I won’t leave without permission. I’m a loving, well-mannered boy with an agreeable personality, who walks well on a leash, listens to my handler, asks to go out, and knows the commands “sit” and “stay.” I love people and I’ve been good around other dogs and children (ages 12 and 15.) As the song says, “You must remember this…” I’m waiting for you to take me home. I know we’ll be happy…”as time goes by.”

Magic

Hi… my name is Magic,

Adopted 9-19-21

Everyone needs some MAGIC in their life. That, my friend, is why I’m here…waiting for you! After a casual, loose-leash walk with a friendly volunteer, she was more than happy to report that I’m “excellent” on a leash, and I know the “sit” command. She seems to believe that someone once cared enough to spend time working with me. It’s not known about my former life, but if scars are any indication it wasn’t always easy. I’m a male, approximately 3-year-old, Lab/Staffie mix who has so much more to offer. I’m ready to settle down and enjoy some of the finer things in life. I don’t require much, just a home of my own with a comfortable bed, good food, and above all, someone I can love and who loves me. Could that be you?

Roxie

Hi… my name is Roxie,

Adopted 9-8-21

I love people. Indeed, I’ve been reported to “talk” to people, (not barking, but my own verbal communication), and since I like people so much, you know my message is all good! However, I was living with four other dogs and the time came when we no longer played nicely together. Our person felt the trouble was between me and the other female dogs in the household, so I’d be happiest as your only dog. And I’m ready to love someone new! Granted, I’m sometimes shy, but always smart, too; I’ve been taught a couple of commands and I’m good on a leash. A young Doberman mix female, 64 pounds, I’ve never been around kids or cats, but I excel at being a person’s companion. Won’t you give me the chance to be yours? (bio dated June 2017)

Cami

Hi… my name is Cami,

Adopted 9-3-21

In the winter of 2018 I was found wandering alone and scared in Tubac. A patient man lured me with food and took me to TALGV. I’m a 6-year-old female Boxer who hopes to find a home with caring people and a canine buddy. I was gentle with my adopted family’s grandchildren and tried to befriend their dog. But when he just ignored me, I got depressed and stopped eating. They worried about me and brought me back. Now, in my foster home, my doggie “sister“ has taught me “down,” “crawl,” and how to use the doggie door. We love snuggling together. My foster parents say I’m skittish when hearing loud noises like slamming doors, but I’m not a barker. I’m shy at first, but ultimately I’m known as “the affectionate love bug.”

Sheba

Hi… my name is Sheba,

ADOPTED 11-6-21

COMES WITH VET CARE SUPPORT FOR LIFE

It’s that time of life when I may have a middle-age spread, a couple of aches and pains, and I might not be able to see and hear as well as I used to, but I think I’m fine the way I am. I need a new home due to my former owner’s health issues. My foster mom taught me how to use a doggie door, and the commands “sit,” “wait,” and “stop.” In fact, I taught HER how to heel, and she follows me everywhere. OOPS!…that could be the other way around. Whatever! I like to stay close! On walks I get a little snappy with other dogs, otherwise I seem fine with them. I come with Vet Care Support for Life… tempted? Once we meet in person, I think I’ll be coming home with you.

If you are considering adoption, please call TALGV office (520-625-3170) and make a date to meet me soon. Kennel appointments are between 10 and 2 every day.

Bosch

Hi… my name is Bosch,

Adopted 9-2-21

Meowing for food and water only works for so long. I managed for about a month in the Villas neighborhood, when a kind stranger finally took pity and brought me to TALGV (where there’s plenty of both – and treats too – to go around!). Now all I need is a home and person of my own and my happiness will know no bounds. I’m a delightful 9-month-old teenager who loves attention, playing (of course), and my immediate goal is being the apple of your eye. I’ve had enough outdoor time to last me for nine lifetimes, so let’s you and me get together and spend our days marveling at our luck in finding each other!

Frodo (R.B.)

Hi… my name is Frodo,

Frodo went to Rainbow Bridge on 9-16-22

When I was first at TALGV I was a puppy. Look at me now! I love my walks and at first I may get excited and pull on the leash, but once we get going I walk very well and pay close attention to my handler. I’m a big “teddy-bear-like” boy, and I require someone strong enough to handle me. I enjoy going for rides, but I may need assistance getting into high clearance vehicles. You know how hips can be! (I do take daily pain medication that will be paid for by Vet Care Support for Life.) I may be curious about other dogs but when provoked I react mildly, but I understand the “leave it” command, plus “sit,” “wait,” and “let’s go.” Take me for a walk; take me home; keep me forever…Please!

PS My baby picture is at the end of the gallery.
