Hi… my name is Neptune,

You don’t have to go “under the sea” to find a cheerful, loving, fun friend for your family because here I am! Like my namesake, I love playing in water, I’m very fast, and I have a beard (well, kinda). I am a sweet, playful boy with a big heart and kind eyes. I look smashing in a bow tie, and I’m currently in puppy school learning basic commands and how to walk well on a leash. My doggie family and I were found on our own, and we haven’t enjoyed as many of the comforts of home as some dogs our age. Let’s be friends; you can show me all the fun of having a home, and I’ll show you all the joy of being loved for life.

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 Jupiter,

Who’s a silly boy? I am! I am a happy-go-lucky goofball who loves people, loves playing, and loves water. I was found with my siblings and, even though we had been through a lot, we impressed everyone with the remarkably sunny dispositions we maintain. I’m a little Retriever (Golden, maybe?), and a little something else, but I guarantee I’m 100% good boy. I’m in school right now and I’m learning sit, lay down, and how to walk nicely on a leash. If you’re looking for a new (probably medium-sized) family member to make your home complete, you don’t have to search the galaxy—I’m right here!

Hi… my name is Winston,

While I don’t wish to dwell on scandal, I was, rather unceremoniously, found behind a Walmart. Why I was there is a mystery, even to me. I hadn’t planned on shopping, I lacked both a list and a wallet, and truly, where would I even put a wallet? At a distinguished 8 years of age, I am a proper Heeler mix with impeccable leash manners and a gentle soul. Walks? Divine. Conversation? Delightful. Recently, I’ve completed the procedure that renders one a “responsible canine,” and the volunteers say I’m quite ready to mingle in Play Group—how festive! I enjoy the simple pleasures: companionship, a good breeze, and a quiet spot to observe the world. If you’re seeking a dignified gent with charm and a touch of mystery, I daresay we might be a perfect match.

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 Mars,

I was named after the Roman God of war, and I take that title very seriously. I excel at puppy dog eyes, which help me win all the food and all the attention. I am a pretty tough pup; my siblings and I were found running loose, and even though I was pretty skinny when I came to TALGV, I was tough enough to overcome that adversity and quickly learn to love people and all they have to offer (especially the snacks). I’ll need some patience because I’m still a puppy, but your reward will be a loyal, loving, fun companion for the rest of our lives. The only thing I really want to conquer is your heart; mine is wide open and waiting for a family to call my own.

Hi… my name is Mercury,

Adopted 6-7-25

My name is Mercury and I have a message for you: please consider adding me to your family! I am a smart pup who has overcome some hardship. I was found abandoned with my siblings, but it hasn’t stopped me from loving people, life, and other dogs. I’m an older puppy but I’m learning at an advanced level because I’m very smart. I love attention and I really love snacks, which apparently makes me easier to train. I am probably going to grow up to be a perfect size for a family—not too big, not too small. I’d love to be your best friend and have a loving home with all the snacks and belly rubs I can handle. In exchange, I offer a lifetime of love and loyal friendship.

Hi… my name is Saturn,

My name is Saturn because I have a lot in common with the planet. We’re both very unique; Saturn has big, complex rings and lots of moons. I have two different colored eyes and the biggest heart ever; they say I’m the sweetest pup. I love to give hugs and snuggle next to you (or on your lap if you’re willing). Yes, I’m a little skinny, and I probably won’t grow up to be very big because I had some health challenges when I came to TALGV. I was found running loose with my siblings and I didn’t get a good meal or medical care until I arrived here. Now I’m eating well, putting on weight, and getting healthy. I am a baby at heart, though, and I’d love to be your forever cuddle buddy.

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 Molly (aka Mango),

Adopted 3-9-25

My siblings and I were found all alone, six 8-week-old puppies, near a busy road. That was our rocky beginning but look at us now! We’ve been growing and learning, getting accustomed to collars and leashes, and having all kinds of fun. Of course, we have our individual personalities, but attributes we share include a love of playing every day, healthy appetites and being super smart! (That “super smart” part should help with learning lots of important dog lessons!) We have the confidence for adventure, a puppy supply of energy, and volunteers say we’re all doing well on our daily walks. I’m Mango, a beautiful Hound mix female with expressive dark brown eyes. I’d be very happy to share an active fun-filled life with you and hope that I can make you happy too!   (5-2024)

Bud

Hi… my name is Bud,

Adopted 3-12-25

When we arrived at TALGV, my sisters and I huddled together in a corner of our run, with me in front.  I’m Bud, and although I was called “the brave boy,” all of us were scared. Our person had died, then our mom was adopted, and no one wanted us. But we quickly realized that TALGV was full of our new best friends! On top of the essentials—food, water, shelter—TALGV volunteers gave us lots of caring attention. And now they’re teaching us important good-dog lessons. I’ve also made friends with a bigger, more grown-up dog, and the two of us can play for hours! One day he explained that adoption is when someone chooses you to love. Sounds like the best thing ever to me. Could you and I choose each other?

Hi… my name is Duke,

If you’re looking for a dog to share your active, happy life, I’m here for you! I’m a confident, curious, and, yes, sometimes goofy young hound dog who’s always ready for adventure and playtime. And if your family includes another dog, I could be good with that. I’ve lived with other dogs since I was a tiny pup. Of note, I’m now a strong guy and so the person on the other end of my leash should be strong, too. Friends say I’m also “very smart,” able to learn important good-dog lessons. The main thing I want to tell you is how much I want to be part of a family—whether that’s one person’s best friend or a houseful. If you say that can be with you, I’ll be one very happy hound!                                                                                                             (bio revised 12/10/24)
