Hi… my name is Diane.
Adopted June 8, 2015
After I was found, the volunteers were scratching their heads wondering what breed I was because there was “something familiar” about me. Turns out I look just like a Canaan dog, the national dog of Israel, and although probably not pure bred, here’s what the AKC says about me: “The Canaan Dog is blessed with an endearing and responsive personality, loves her family, and is adaptable to many living situations. Life in an apartment with several short daily walks is as agreeable as living in a suburban home with a yard and noisy kids. While this breed is active, its energy level isn’t excessive, and they make wonderful companion dogs.” So that’s pretty much me — about 3 years old, 33 pounds and perfect for anyone!

Hi… my name is Prince.
Adopted August 15, 2015
When I arrived in late 2014, it was actually a good thing that the Sahuarita police picked me up for “vagrancy” because I was running in the middle of the intersection of Rancho Sahuarita Boulevard and Pima Mine Road, and that’s a pretty dangerous place for a canine! Since I was already neutered, I guess I had belonged to someone at one time. I was adopted in November 2014, but now I need to find another family to shower my affection on. I’m a magnificent white Siberian husky/shepherd mix with one blue and one brown eye, and I totally adore people. All I ask out of life is attention, an active family, and a place to call my own forever. That’s not too much is it?

Hi… my name is Candy Cane.
One wonders why people move to places that don’t allow their much-loved pets! Okay, I guess there are always those old “extenuating circumstances,” but that still leaves us loyal companions wondering if we did something wrong! In my case, I’d lived with my family (and a cat that scared the very devil out of me!) for four of my eight years, and they said I was a loving lap dog who wants nothing more in life than your love and attention. I’m an adorable tan and white Chihuahua girl who knows lots of commands (no, sit, stay, come, and “go bye bye” — love those car rides!), can use a doggie door, and, if I do say so myself, am perfect in every way! So why not let me be perfect for YOU?

Hi… my name is Kandy Kiss.
Adopted May 9, 2015
During the short time I stayed with my rescuers, they said that I was a very sweet little girl who got along with their other cat and was even good with their (gentle, kitten-savvy!) young kids. They found me wandering in the Santo Tomas neighborhood, and said that although I was a little shy, that was probably only because I’d been dodging critters and prickly things alone in the desert for a while (that is a very scary, ouchy place!). They didn’t have a dog, but being just a youngster, I’m infinitely adaptable, so like with kids, if you have a canine that’s respectful of cats I’d probably be okay with it too. I’m a darling 4-month-old, medium-haired, black and white girl just yearning for a safe, warm lap to snuggle in.

Hi… my name is Lisa.
Adopted August 22, 2015
My sister, Mona, and I appeared one day in the yard of a home in Sahuarita Heights and stayed around to play with the resident Shih Tzu and the tribe of kids who lived there. The owners fed us outside while they tried to find our owner, but when that didn’t happen after two weeks, decided that we needed more “exposure” to potential adopters so we could find new homes. They said that we were beautiful, playful, happy youngsters who need a good-sized yard and lots of attention, play time, and someone with “puppy-patience.” They’re calling us Whippet mixes, but we have “Shar-Pei-like” ears, so who knows? We’re just a happy amalgam of something! All you need to know is that we’re cute, sweet, and, best of all, available!

Hi… my name is Manny.
Adopted May 30, 2015
Life was one big bowl of cherries for me until my dad’s girlfriend (and her drat cat) came to live with us. I’d been getting along fine with the resident cat and dog, but the newbie didn’t like me, so unfortunately it was me who got the boot. Funny how fast life changes isn’t it? My dad was really sad to part with me and said, “Manny is incredibly friendly and loving and enjoys being brushed as well as playing fetch with hair ties or furry cat toys. He does well with cats and tolerates dogs. He wants to be wherever you are and loves being the center of attention.” I’m a 10-year-old, slate grey and white Korat mix gentleman, so if you’re looking for a companion to lavish attention on, I’m your guy!

Hi… my name is Cookie.
Adopted April 16, 2016
Thank goodness my puppy raising days are over! I loved all my children dearly, but it’s time for me to find my forever home and focus on being the best-ever companion! My kids, Shortbread, Oatmeal, Gingersnap, and Truffle (see a “theme” here?), were living outdoors in very poor conditions when TALGV’s Outreach Program rescued us. In addition to being malnourished, we had a lot of other issues for a while, but with the TLC (and medical attention) we’ve been getting, we’re all “up and running” and ready to move on. The volunteers say that I “walk like a dream” and that I’d be a perfect playful and affectionate medium-sized dog for an active family. I’m only about 18-months old, so just think of all those years ahead of us to “feel the love”!
