Hi… my name is Sparky Boy (aka Lucky Boy),

Adopted 5-5-18

Sparky Boy has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

If you’re looking for a tough, demanding dog, as the song says, “it ain’t me, babe.” I’m the easygoing, let’s-be-friends-and-have-fun kind of guy. Even the dad who returned me said I was “really mellow most of the time.” But, after six months together, I was lying down and a 2-year-old child ‘got in my face.’ When I told her in dog language not to do that, her dad objected and brought me back to TALGV. That’s okay. I am mellow, and know that my perfect family will find me here. (They’ll be glad to know that on my intake exam, even when they took my temperature, I just relaxed and grinned.) I’m a black and white Staffie mix male, 63 pounds, very popular here at TALGV, but wanting only to be loved by you.

Hi… my name is Matilda,

Adopted 7-8-18

Matilda has earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

As an active, playful 1-year-old, I know how to have fun. On the other hand (or paw), I also know what it is to be scared and lonely. I was lost, and that was no fun at all. Fortunately, a kind man rescued me, but he already had dogs at home. Then I was adopted by a senior couple; they called me “a great dog,” and noted that I’m housebroken, which people really appreciate, but said I was too young and strong for them. So now I’m here, making new friends, training (which is fun, too), and watching people go by, wondering if that’s the person who’ll love me. I just know you’re out there—enjoying an active, good life, and looking for the right dog to share it. Please let it be me!

Hi… my name is Socks,

Adopted 1-5-19

Socks has earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

I came here with my long-time buddy Irwin, a little Rat Terrier mix. We’d lived happily together with our person, but then she needed to move and couldn’t take us along. Now, my little buddy has found his new home and so I’m ready for my turn. I’m a 7-year-old Lab mix female, tan and white with big brown eyes, and very accustomed to sharing my home. Indeed, you know how dogs love having a job? Well, I think mine is being someone’s devoted companion—keeping each other company, taking walks together, being the loyal friend who’s always glad to be with you. I’m housetrained, leash-trained, have Free Vet Care for Life, and there’s one more thing: For me, life isn’t complete without someone to love, so I’m asking: Will you be my someone?

Hi… my name is Katie (aka Jamie),

Adopted 6-16-18

The world is full of sweet, understanding people, which is why I believe I’ll find my perfect home even though I’m not an “everyone” kind of dog. Most noises scare me, crowds do, too, and I haven’t been good with some children. But you know what I do very well? Cuddle on your lap. Indeed, for the right grown-up person or couple—patient and kind—I’ll be a very loving, devoted companion who asks only for a quiet home, a couple of toys, and a lap to snuggle in. I’m a 5-year-old, 13-pound female with a gray and white wavy coat. One of my front legs is crooked, but I’m used to that, and here’s hoping you’ll find me adorable in my own little way. If so, may I be your little dog forever?

Hi… my name is Chuck,

Adopted 4-8-18

If you’re looking for a “big, old softie,” come meet me! My friend, Travis, and I were found on Sahuarita Road and I’ve got to tell you it’s sure swell being here out of harm’s way and getting three squares a day! I’m a “glutton for attention” they say, and despite my size I’m really an “easy walker.” I know that any family that has a home with space for a big guy like me will be all the happier with me in it! I’m a handsome, 64-pound, red and white hound mix boy with those typical soulful eyes that will enchant you as much as my personality. You’ll just have to meet me to find out!  (bio needs update)

Hi… my name is Louie,

Adopted with Gunner 3-25-18

Beneath my curly coat, you’ll find a fun, happy guy who loves his brother (Gunner), gets along with other dogs, and could be called athletic—my favorite outing is going for a walk; my favorite game is Fetch the Ball. Gunner and I were littermates; we’ve always been together and we’re very bonded. (We eat and drink from the same dishes, and sleep together in our own little beds.) We’re 3-year-old Poodle males, (18 and 19 pounds), have been good with visiting young children, well mannered in the house, and I like to watch TV (which Gunner tolerates peacefully). We had a good life with our former people, but now they have health issues and are moving to a smaller place, so we need someone new to love. Could our someone-to-love forever be you?
