Animal League News

Hi… my name is Dill,

These are puppy days at The Animal League! First there was one litter, then another, then another, and then another! Right now, there are two kennels full of puppies, and even more in foster homes.  Male and female puppies with different personalities, coats of different colors, and already learning little doggie lessons. I’m Dill, a brindle male with white socks, one of the “spice puppies” (the volunteers choose “theme names” for litters.) I’m here to tell you we’re all looking for happy homes with loving people who understand that puppies require time and patience, and will fill your days with laughter and fun. And if you’re wondering, yes, our wonderful moms are here, too, and they’re ready for their own forever homes, too. Please come take your pick! It could be fun for all!

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.

Hi… my name is Clove,

Puppies are cute, easy to love and sometimes goofy.  I know because I’m surrounded by puppies! They’re my siblings! And there are more puppies at the Animal League, too. I hear them playing and sometimes I can smell them because, well, I’m a dog. Yes, I’m still little, with lots to learn, and needing a daily puppy portion of cuddling, playing, and reminders that I’m safe and loved. I’m Clove, one of the Spice litter boys, and old enough to meet people now. And if another puppy is your favorite, that’s okay. There are puppies here of different sizes, personalities, colors, genders, and we all need happy homes to grow up in. So, if you’re ready to add some puppy joy to your life, we’re here for you at The Animal League of Green Valley.

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.

Hi… my name is Shamus,

Adopted 11-30-24

Although friends say I’m a “love bug,” I may be shy when we meet. Oh, I want to get to know you, but in my young life I’ve learned to be a little cautious. I first arrived at The Animal League as a skinny puppy with a significant injury to one of my paws. I was soon adopted, but when I grew into the guy you see today—a nice size for a 1-year-old Boxer mix—I was too strong for my adopter. So now I’m back, continuing training on walking, manners, and how to let my sweet, friendly nature shine through. I’m having fun (I love my favorite toys) and holding fast to the best dream ever: The day someone wonderful gives me a forever home. Could you be my someone? (10/2024)

Adopted 11-14-24

ANDI is an amazing, well-trained, and social three-year-old, 98-pound Great Pyrenees/Newfoundland mix female who needs a new home. She is in excellent health, spayed, up to date on shots, and medical records are available. Andi is housebroken and asks to go out. She walks very well on leash and has been in training for mobility service. She is excellent with other dogs and adores children; cats are unknown but she likes to chase rabbits. Andi is obedience trained to Canine Good Citizen level. She is not a barker, enjoys her crate, and is used to daily car rides. She is a loving, affectionate, tolerant young dog that needs an alpha companion with time to spend walking and playing with her. She does best with exercise about 30 minutes twice a day and would be great with another playful dog. Andi is a house dog but needs a 5-6’ outdoor fence. She loves attention, is easily brushed, and would be an awesome companion. There is no adoption fee for this special girl. If you will welcome Andi into a loving home as part of your family, please call Ann between 2 and 6 p.m. at 916-833-9793.

Hi… my name is Baby Girl,

Has earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

Could I be the dog of your dreams? I love to learn, and if I try to “get away” with something, I’m also easily corrected. That’s probably because I love people and want to please you. On a leash, bunnies, other dogs, or new people may excite me, but I wasn’t a barker in my foster home. In my crate, I was quiet and calm. And at home or out and about, I happily adore my people—eager to be part of fun activities. Ask me to join you on a run, hike or long walk, and I’m all yours! So what do you say? Shall we enjoy life to the fullest together?  (5-2018)

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.

Hi… my name is Sampson,

Adopted 10-6-24

I was found all alone near some storage buildings by kind people who brought me to TALGV. I was terrified but didn’t want anyone to see how scared I was. “What were they going to do to me? I’d better act tough,” I thought. The volunteers saw right through me and gave me time to adjust while they earned my trust (treats helped!). Now, I’m making new friends daily and will do my “kidney bean dance” to greet them. So far, my favorite hobbies are giving kisses, playing with toys, and going for walks. You’d think I’d be a super-strong dog on a leash. You’d be wrong. I enjoy leisurely walks where I can enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells. Maybe you’re looking for a tough-looking, soft-hearted lovebug like me. I hope so!

Hi… my name is Daisy,

Hi everyone! My new life began the moment I was rescued from the hot desert by Good Samaritans who brought me to TALGV. My past life as a neglected breeding machine retreated in their car’s rear-view mirror as we made our way to the next chapter of my journey. I spent several days relaxing out of the heat with a soft bed to sleep on and good food to eat. I was even treated to massages which I highly recommend – 5 stars!  My friends first thought I would be a couch-potato but have learned I want to experience other things I never got to enjoy – like walks with my two-legged friends, now that I’m feeling better. Okay, maybe I need to learn leash etiquette, but I’m getting there! Want to be part of my journey?

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.

Hi… my name is Ralphie,

Adopted 4-13-24

Thanks to the loving care of my foster parents, I’m finally healing and discovering how good life can be. Also, hats off to their Westie, Scampy. I’ve enjoyed hanging out and napping with you! I was found alongside the road with a painful injury. As a result, my leg couldn’t be saved, but I’m learning how to get along quite well. I’m content going in my crate when I choose, at night, and when left alone. I’ve needed some encouragement to go out to potty, but I’m improving daily. I’m a sweet, gentle, loving boy who enjoys getting praises, belly rubs, and any kind of attention. I need someone who can offer me security, patience, and ongoing love and care. Making “goofy” sounds is how I communicate, but for you I’ll translate: “Please take me home!”
