Mojo

Hi… my name is MoJo.

My first family had to move in with relatives who had cats, and neither the cats nor I were happy with the situation so they sadly relinquished me to TALGV. They said that I simply adored the kids (who liked to dress me up for special occasions!), and got on famously with other dogs. I went to live with a senor couple for a few months, but they just weren’t active enough for me, so my main goal in life is to get LOTS of attention and live with a dynamic family that has kids and another dog. I’m a “talkative,” high-energy Border terrier boy, love to chase bouncy toys and lights, and am very loving and loyal so please, please, please give me one more chance!

Riley

Hi… my name is Riley.

Adopted January 16, 2015.

The first thing you’ll probably notice about me is that I only have three legs. The second thing will be that it doesn’t make one bit of difference to me! No one knows why I lost my leg, but I adjusted to the loss a long time ago so I’ve pretty much forgotten that I ever had four! I lived with a little family for two months after a friend gave me to them, but they had another small dog and two young kids (all of whom I got along splendidly with), and they really couldn’t devote the time needed for my education. I’m a lovely (and loving!) brindle-colored Lab/heeler mix lady who’s yearning for a family and place of my own to make my life compete.

Arrived June 6, 2014.

Baby

Hi… my name is Baby.

Adopted January 31, 2015.

Sometimes “blended” families work out well and sometimes they don’t. Unfortunately, in my case, it was the latter, but only because the landlord wasn’t happy when I arrived to live with my dad’s new family. I lived with him (and his two small children) for two of my seven years, and he said that I was a real “people person,” so I guess that means really I love humans! He said that I know quite a few commands, am perfectly house and leash trained, and was very gentle with the kids (although I don’t do well with cats). So here I am, a lovely, mostly white, American bulldog lady whose only desire in life is to have another family that I can shower my special brand of canine love on.

Arrived April 11, 2014.

Sampson

Hi… my name is Sampson.

I was adopted July 21, 2014.

I guess you have to associate “big and strong” with my name. Well, I am that, but I’m a big people lover, too! I was found wandering on Sahuarita Road near the pecan groves, so naturally not much is known about my past, but the volunteers will tell you that I walk well on a leash (okay, I get distracted sometimes, but MOSTLY well!), am housebroken (I use my doggie door and NEVER have an accident in my room!), and will make some lucky family that has experience with guys like me a great companion and friend. I’m about 2-3 years old, and a genuinely handsome brindle mix of Boxer and Staffie, so do us both a favor and let me shine my light in your direction!

Bridgette

Hi… my name is Bridgette.

I was adopted March 9, 2014.

Mick

Mick was adopted 2/20/14

Pi

Hi… my name is Pi.

I was adopted on april 4, 2014.

Bella

Hi… my name is Bella.

I was found running in the street near a restaurant called “Bella …something,” but my rescuer already had twelve (!) dogs at his place, so one more mouth was WAY over the top and he needed to find me a nice home of my very own. I am a young brindle and white Staffie mix girl weighing approximately 30 pounds. TALGV is making sure I am in good health and giving me lots of attention (although I’d really rather not share it with so many other dogs!), so I am half-past ready to go home with you. My training in my previous life seems to have been quite good, and I get along very well with other dogs. I have a sweet temperament and really want to please, so I hope you will consider adding me to your family so we can be together for a long time to come.

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!
