Hi… my name is Pancho.
Adopted December 29, 2014.
My brother, Sancho, and I got “downsized” when our mom and dad “upsized” to a bigger rental home that didn’t allow pets. I guess I shouldn’t “go there” and tell you how we feel about that (you can guess, surely!), but the bottom line is now YOU have a chance to add a delightful Chihuahua boy (or two) to your life! I get along fine with my brother, but I’m not overly fond of other dogs, so it would be great if I could continue being the human-loving guy I’ve always been. I’m housetrained, like to go for walks, am not a picky eater (most dogs aren’t actually!), and I’d love to show you what joy having a little tyke sitting in your lap really is!

Hi… my name is Elfie.
Adopted November 21, 2014.
A woman driving on Frontage Road near Elephant Head found me (and a canine buddy) running along the side of the road looking VERY frightened and forlorn (and hot, too, I can tell you!). So you can imagine that I’m just ecstatic to be here at TALGV where I don’t have to worry about cars or other desert critters “getting me!” AND in addition to that, shortly after I arrived, I gave birth to my (last) litter of puppies — so I was doubly happy to have a safe haven in which to raise them! I’m a lovely shepherd mix girl, about a year or two old, and after my babies are gone, I’m going to be looking for a home where my people will cherish me for the sweet-natured girl I am.
Arrived June 2, 2014.

Hi… my name is Blackie.
I was adopted on August 21, 2014.
After my dad had a stroke a while back, he found that he just wasn’t able to care for me any longer. It was super hard for him to make the decision to bring me here as he rescued me in Mexico three years ago and we have been best buddies since (he said, “A very lucky person will get this dog because he likes any human who shows an interest in him!”). I’m a little on the skinny side right now (even though I eat well) as I have tick fever, but I’m now getting medicine for that and should be fine in no time. I’m a lanky Doberman/shepherd mix boy who is well mannered in the house and on a leash. I get along great with everyone, so why not you?

Hi… my name is Lucky.
Lucky has earned her Canine Good Citizen certificate.
Adopted July 10, 2015
My dad found me under a car when I was a puppy and kept me for four years, but recently when one of his other dogs started picking on me, he decided that I needed to find a “friendlier” home. Although I lived outside most of my life, I was allowed in the house occasionally (where I got along great with the kids but NOT the cats!), so it would be wonderful if I could find a home with a family that wanted me to be a bigger part of their lives. I’m a 42-pound shepherd mix girl, and although I may be a little reserved at the moment (things have changed awfully fast in my life!), I know that with love and patience, the “real me” will come shining through.
Arrived June 20, 2014.

Hi… my name is Sable.
I was adopted September 14, 2014.
When you arrive with a fractured pelvis, you can be sure you’re going to get LOTS of attention and love. No one knows for certain, but they think that a car hit me (I’m still leery of them), so I was in pretty sad shape. I’m living with a foster mom while I’m recuperating, and she says that I am a sweet, calm girl who loves other dogs (I like to steal their toys and take them to my bed!), get along great with kids, am crate trained, and am “working on” the scary doggy door. I’m a lovely young 25-pound Aussie mix girl, and although I have a little “hop” because of my accident (they say I’m “part rabbit”!), I get along fine anyway, so why not let it be with you?
