Read MoreHi… my name is Sammi.
Adopted October 23, 2014.
The first thing that you might notice when you meet me is an urge for some butterscotch/vanilla swirl ice cream! The second will be how outgoing, happy, and dynamic I am! My mom adopted me when I was 8 weeks old, but she didn’t have enough time to devote to my energetic lifestyle. Here’s what she said: “Sammi is highly intelligent, high energy, high drive, affectionate, and a quick learner. She needs an ACTIVE family! She’s perfectly house- and crate-trained, knows heel, come, sit, stay, wait, quiet, off, give, and bring it (she’s still working on “leave it” and “down”). She responds to firm, consistent, and loving leadership and would enjoy a active life running and hiking with her person.” If that sounds like you, let’s chat!

Hi… my name is Buster.
Adopted December 6, 2014.
My family adopted me from TALGV when I was eight weeks old and although they loved me to pieces, I wasn’t getting along with the young kids that visited the house (but I was fine with “my own” kids), so I guess a new home is in my future. My people said that I’m loyal, faithful, very protective of my family, and well, just basically a real sweetheart. I’m about 15 months old now and have turned into an eye-catching mix of Corgi (check out the ears and feet) and Chihuahua (a real surprise if you see my baby pictures!). I have perfect house manners (I can use a doggie door and am crate trained), and love being part of the action, so I’m ready made for a home that will appreciate my attributes!

Read MoreHi… my name is P J.
Adopted October 8, 2014.
It’s amazing what miracles a little love and patience can work! I had been “living rough” in Arivaca for several months, relying on the kindness of strangers for food. After the volunteers rounded me up and brought me here I was pretty frightened for a while, but as the days have gone by, I’m finding that life (and the humans who go along with it) really can be grand and am coming out of my shell more each day seeking attention. I’m a small shepherd mix girl (they think I might have some Kelpie in me, too), and if you spend a bit of time sitting with me you’ll see that all I really want is a safe home and a loving family that I can shower with loyalty and gratitude.

Read MoreHi… my name is Crystal.
Adopted December 2, 2014.
I can tell you I am one happy camper to be here! A kindhearted woman found me in Elephant Head eating plastic and cardboard. It was obvious that I’d recently had puppies, and since I had severe bite marks they assumed I gotten them defending them from predators (sadly my babies were nowhere to be seen). I was so exhausted when I arrived, that I slept for two days! Well, my wounds have been treated and I’m on my way to healing, so I can rest easy now knowing that the volunteers will make sure I find a family that can shower me with affection to help me forget my ordeal. I’m a sweet hound/heeler mix, and I sure am looking forward to my new lease on life!

Read MoreHi… my name is Ricardo.
Adopted October 11, 2014.
You have to meet me in person to appreciate what a big guy I am (85 pounds!), as my pictures don’t quite do my size justice. The Wal-Mart parking lot seems to have been getting its share of strays lately, and I’m one of them. Maybe I escaped from a car (although the windows would have had to be been WAY down for that!), or maybe I was abandoned, but I’m here now in all my glory, waiting to find a “big dog” family (with plenty of space!) looking for a guy like me to love. I’m a handsome shepherd/Doberman mix, about 4 years old, and the volunteers say that I’m a quiet fellow and a “true gentle giant.” Why not come see for yourself – it might just be love at first sight!

Read MoreHi… my name is Nova.
Adopted November 9, 2014.
My family adopted me a year ago from TALGV after I’d come in because I was jumping the fence to go exploring (well, I was left in the yard all day so was just looking for some fun!). My new people had me for a year, but since they were fostering several really young children they were worried that my “lust for life” was a bit too overwhelming for them. I’m a hound/shepherd mix guy who is affectionate, outgoing, and want to both give and get lots of love. I’m perfectly house-trained, walk well on a leash, and love squeaky toys (and kids!). I need some work on curbing my enthusiasm around people, but then I’ll be a companion with whom you’ll want to spend all your time (both indoors and out!).

Read MoreHi… my name is Waylon.
Adopted October 10, 2014.
Three years old, ten pounds, and a Chihuahua — what more could you “little dog” lovers want? Everyone thought for sure my owners would come looking for me in a day or two after I’d been found in the Duval Safeway parking lot, but I’ve been here twiddling my paws for three weeks now and I’m pretty sure that’s not going to happen! SO…all you need to know is that like all members of my breed, I’ll be good with families (if the children are gentle) and because of my small size, I don’t require a whole lot of exercise (well, some!) and minimal grooming. All I need are the “basics” of dog care: plenty of food, love, attention and a lap to call my own forever. C’mon, you KNOW that’s you!

Read MoreHi… my name is Monty.
Adopted November 16, 2014.
How can you resist this face? There seems to be an overabundance of lost “little guys” lately, and I’m sad to say that I’m a member of that not-so-lucky club. I AM lucky in that I ended up here, though, as had I not been rescued from Nogales Highway, I might not be around to promote myself! I’m a darling, young tan and white Chihuahua/Jack Russell terrier mix boy with a bit of salt and pepper around my nose. Since I’ve been living in an enclosure here in “The Den” at TALGV, it’s obvious that I’m perfectly crate-trained, so I’m sure my house manners will be exemplary. It’s also really special for me when people come to visit because I LOVE attention, so I promise to be the lap dog of your dreams when we’re together!

Read MoreHi… my name is Pinta.
Adopted February 27, 2015
It’s been an exciting few months for me I can tell you! When I first arrived at TALGV I was frightened, hungry, and had several wounds that needed tending, so I’ve spent my time recovering from all that distress. Well, now I’m happy to say I’ve been living with a foster family for a while, and they say that although I’m still a bit shy, I’m very friendly, love affection (and attention!), and love playing with their two dogs. They think that I’ve probably lived in a home once, as I’m totally housebroken and take a shot at the sofa once in a while (didn’t work, but I got a cushy dog bed instead!). I’m a svelte young heeler/shepherd mix who yearns for a settled home where I can feel secure. Pinta passed her American Kennel Club (AKC) Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certification test with flying colors on February 16, 2015. Many thanks to her foster parent for assisting with this important training.
