Kobe

Hi… my name is Kobe.

If you’re a “big dog” person, have I got a deal for you! My little family had to relinquish me because their landlord said I was too big (I started out life with them as a puppy, but, like Topsy, I “just growed” I guess!). They had so many good things to say about me — I’m calm, good with other dogs, great with kids of any age, not toy or food dominant, respond to whistles, and like to give hugs (if you don’t mind a 73-pound hugger!). I’m perfectly house and crate trained, walk well on or off leash, know “sit, lay, shake” and the ever popular “hug” when you pat your upper chest. I’m an impressive brindle-colored Labrador mix boy who wants so badly to be part of an active family. Maybe if I can find that, I’ll be able to stop missing everyone I had to leave behind. Can you help with that?

Cooper

Hi… my name is Cooper.

When I arrived at TALGV, I was one sick puppy because I’d been living outside with lots of other animals and hadn’t gotten the nourishment or care I needed. After I got here, I received lots of attention and treatment to make up for it and soon turned into a bouncing baby boy. It didn’t take long for me to find a home, but the single woman who adopted me discovered that “puppy” was more than she had time for, so she felt I needed a place where there was LOTS more activity (and maybe another dog to play with). I’m a delightful young, light-colored brindle terrier/shepherd mix (with the most distinctive and soft coat!), and I’m full of all the pep, curiosity, and joy that teenagers are known for. My mom said that I’m playful, great with other dogs and kids, don’t shed or bark, so you could say I’m the “total package”!

Lily

Hi… my name is Lily.

The people who found me in the desert already had a mastiff, a cattle dog, a pointer, a Shar-Pei, and a Lab — so no surprise that they couldn’t keep me, too! They lived in Patagonia — and their place had lots of room to roam — but adding another dog to the mix of five (pretty big ones!) would have been an awful lot to ask! They did keep me for two weeks though, and said that I was good with all the other dogs, have a very sweet temperament, am a good swimmer, love to play outside, and am a big, smart, obedient girl. I’m a striking, brindle-colored greyhound and Great Dane mix and will be a wonderful addition to any family. I’d love have another canine buddy to romp with (they said I NEED to play!), but if it’s just you and me, that would probably work for me, too!

Rafferty

Hi… my name is Rafferty.

I was adopted on June 30, 2014.

There are lots of interesting places between Esperanza Boulevard and Duval Mine Road, but I was too close to Interstate 19 to be able to check them out before a lovely lady picked me up and saved me from anything bad happening. Where I came from is a mystery, but in the short time she had me, she said that I had a sweet disposition and the volunteers here seem to agree. Although I can be a bit shy on first meeting you, I warm up to people really quickly. I’ve had a run all to myself for a while, so they’re still working on finding out my “social skills” with other dogs, but I’m doing pretty well walking on leash so I’m sure all my other qualities will become evident in no time. I’m an interesting young Boxer/terrier mix with black/tan/brindle coloring, so come meet me and see how terrific I am for yourself!

Sophia

Hi… my name is Sophia.

Adopted April 1, 2014.

I’m a beautiful, green-eyed, long-haired brindle (or classic brown tabby with a bit of torti!) female, who is front-declawed. My dad got me from a shelter four years ago but now he has health problems and a friend brought me to TALGV. I didn’t come with a whole lot of information, but a few little details may help – we hope! I’m quiet and a bit shy (although you’d never know it when someone comes around to pet me). I like to rub against you and be petted, but my dad says I don’t like to be picked up. I know, I know, it’s not much to go on when you’re looking for a pet, but I’ll tell you one thing: I’m a bit scared of all these other cats around (I’ve been an only pet), so someone please get me out of here!! I’ll make it worth your while – double purrs!

Dutch

Hi… my name is Dutch.

I was adopted on April 7, 2014.

I am one handsome specimen of a Boxer/terrier mix guy who was found in July 2009. After I’d been here a while, they wanted to see how I would behave in a “real” home situation, so I lived with a foster mom for a time. You can “read all about it” in her notes, but here are excerpts: “I found Dutch to be calm, quiet, gentle and affectionate. Dutch is not a barker, doesn’t jump and stays fairly calm at home, which is quite different from how he appears in a kennel situation. Although he pulls on a choke collar, he does well with a ‘gentle leader,’ knows basic commands, and plays rough and tumble with big dogs, so maybe avoid dog parks as there are a lot of unknowns there. Dutch will make a great companion for an EXPERIENCED, dog owner.” There’s LOTS more about me at TALGV, so please come see it and then meet me.
