Hi… my name is Lupe,
Adopted September 7, 2016
When I was lost on a local frontage road, I didn’t know whether to run as fast as I could, try to find a hiding place, or what? Before I’d solved that conundrum, a stranger came to my rescue. She brought me here, where the first major improvement was my super soft bed, which makes me feel comfy and safe. Next, I started making friends, letting people know that even though I’m little—just over 6 pounds—I enjoy being with them in a BIG way! Walks are good, playtime is fun, and I love to cuddle and listen to the heartbeat of the friend who holds me near. Maybe that friend could be you! I’m a sweet, 3-1/2-year-old Chihuahua mix female, and I promise to fit perfectly into your heart and your life.

Hi… my name is Koda,
Adopted October 1, 2016
People tell me my looks could stop traffic—my striking blue eyes and beautiful black/white/tan coat—and that’s kind of what happened. My rescuer was driving down a Sahuarita street, saw me and stopped to help. Since I had no tags, he used social media to try to find my people, but when no one came for me, he brought me here. He said I was an energetic dog who got along with other dogs at his house, not so much with his cats, and had lots of fun chasing balls. I can jump, too, so need supervision and a high fence when off-leash outside. I’m a 2-year-old Husky mix male, a slender 43 pounds, and through my bright blue eyes I see you and me in our exciting, fun future together.

Hi… my name is Bach,
August 30, 2016
My siblings and I already feel like little champs because we survived one mean experience. We were abandoned in a box—all five of us—and left next to a commercial dumpster. But before you even think about the bad things that might have happened, let’s move on to the important next chapter: We were rescued and brought to TALGV. Timid at first, we were unsure about the big wide world, and then they turned us loose in our run. Yahoo! We started running, wrestling, rolling around; most puppies know how to play, but I like to think we do it with style! I’m one of the boys, tan with a brindle back, 22 pounds and growing, and ready for the gloriously happy experience of meeting you! Won’t you please come see me today!

Hi… my name is Angel,
Adopted September 24, 2016
Here at TALGV, my roommate has been my mom, Blondie, and that’s been so cool for me. I’m just 5 months old and still little—about 17 pounds (and growing), so being with mom has been very reassuring. Plus, she teaches by example. If you come visit, you’ll see that I already know a lot about eating, drinking, playing, napping, and trotting out in the sunshine to watch the world go by. The volunteers say I’m very cute and smart, too, making great progress on leash training, but I think my strong suit is something I’ve always known—how to love. I’ve loved my mom, my siblings, and chances are very good that I’ll love you, too. So what do you say? Could I be your adorable puppy today and your devoted companion forever?

Hi… my name is Winston,
Adopted August 28, 2016
To stay calm on busy days at the shelter, it helps to be a pretty easygoing guy. The volunteers credit me with just that, saying that even when there’s lots going on around me here, I keep my cool. Granted, I’m a little scared, too, but my rescuer said I was the same at his house; “doesn’t bark,” he noted, and that was in a home with three other dogs. I did my best to be a good guest—being friendly, following basic commands—and after my home wasn’t found and my rescuer brought me to TALGV, I’ve tried to just keep being a friendly, good dog. I’m 17 pounds, a tan Wire Haired Terrier mix male, who may be calm, but you’ll make my heart pound with happiness if you make me yours.

Hi… my name is Marcus,
Adopted September 30, 2016
I was out for my morning jog when a woman ran up to me… Okay, I’m kidding. My rescuer was the one jogging, and I ran up to her because I was lost. Fortunately, she liked me right away and agreed to help me out. She took me home for a week, where I enjoyed spending time with her three children and four dogs. After no one claimed me, she brought me here, telling volunteers that I know the commands “sit” and “stay,” and like to play soccer and baseball! I’m also leash trained, so we can have all kinds of fun together—hiking, sports, or just hanging out. I’m an active young Boxer mix male who’d make a great addition to lots of households and has a heart full of love to give.

Adopted with Squeakers August 20, 2016
MOLLY (aka Tamale) is a beautiful 35-pound, 9 ½-month-old Lab/Aussie mix with tan and white coat that needs a new loving home due to owner’s changing personal circumstances. She is strongly bonded with Squeakers (aka Pip), her male sibling so owner strongly believes they should not be separated when they are adopted. Both pups have had all shots appropriate to their age, been spayed and neutered, been micro-chipped, and are in good health. Both pups know basic commands, are crate trained, leash trained, and housebroken. They have been taught to ring a bell when they want to go out, but also are comfortable using a dog door. Both dogs are loving, very affectionate, and eager to please. They have been socialized and have lived with another older dog and 2 cats. They are also great with children. They have been taught to bark at the door. Both pups are very high energy and love to go on walks or runs, and play at the dog park. They will do best with a fenced yard where they can run freely. All the pups’ gear will go with them, including each of their crates, a shared doghouse, leashes, harnesses, toys, and health/shot records. There is no adoption fee.
If you would welcome Molly and Squeakers into your home and heart, please call Kris between 10 AM and 7 PM at 520- 309-0038.
