Hi… my name is Cuca.
I was adopted August 16, 2014.
It seems like everyone is moving these days! There must be a dozen denizens here that got left behind when their families moved on — and we’re all a bit dazed by the abrupt change in our lives. I lived with my people most of my life, and they said that I’m gentle and tolerant of kids and other animals, am well behaved on leash, have perfect house manners, am not afraid of thunderstorms, and love to play catch. So with those credentials, you’ll know a good thing when you meet me! I’m an unusual liver-colored, heeler mix girl with a delightful “Zorro-like” mask, and although you might not know it yet, once we get together you’ll find that I’m going to be an essential addition to your life!

Hi… my name is Ginger.
Adopted October 6, 2014.
You’ve got to give my rescuers credit — they found me lying in a ditch six months ago when I was all banged up, VERY thin, and afraid of everything. During the ensuing months, I’ve been patched (and fattened) up, gotten to know and enjoy their cat, dog, and kids, and now I love everyone! Just goes to show you what a little patience, love, and TLC will do! I know quite a few commands, love to play ball, fetch, and spend lots of time outside and to follow everyone around when they’re doing their chores. I’m a sweet, medium-sized, red heeler mix lady, and since my people just couldn’t keep me forever, I’m now hoping I can find another active family that will make my life complete.

Hi… my name is Sancho.
Adopted December 29, 2014.
My brother, Pancho, and I got “downsized” when our mom and dad “upsized” to a bigger rental home that didn’t allow pets. I guess I shouldn’t “go there” and tell you how we feel about that (you can guess, surely!), but the bottom line is now YOU have a chance to add a delightful Chihuahua boy (or two) to your life! I get along fine with my brother, but I’m not overly fond of other dogs, so it would be great if I could continue being the human-loving guy I’ve always been. I’m housetrained, like to go for walks, am not a picky eater (most dogs aren’t actually!), and I’d love to show you what joy having a little tyke sitting in your lap really is!

Hi… my name is Sunny.
I was adopted July 15, 2014.
Several months ago I was the victim of a “hit and run” driver, but fortunately, someone DID stop and bring me here. After extensive surgery, I had to relearn how to stand, run (first!) and then walk. But that was then, and this is now, and as far as I’m concerned, I have “regular” legs just like anyone else! Okay, I might be a bit gimpy at times, but even if you think of that as a “flaw” (I don’t!), I more than make up for it in spunk and courage. I’m a Chihuahua boy whose main goal is life is to spend as much time as possible in your lap — in addition to maybe getting a few “therapeutic” massages now and then. If that sounds like a plan, I’m your man!

Hi… my name is Sugar.
Adopted October 25, 2014.
Here’s my one wish in the world: when I “grow up” I want to be a lap dog! I’m only a pup but have led a pretty hard life, so I have a lot of catching up to do! I came to TALGV with a terribly infected eye (as you can see, it’s gone now, thank goodness) and two days later presented them with my (last!) brood of babies. I’m a whip-smart, medium-to-high energy, heeler/Lab mix girl (who prefers “the ladies” to the male of the species — something from my past, they think). I have nice leash manners and will bond very quickly with my new person, so if I can find someone who can spend lots of one-on-one of time with me, my life will be complete!
