Legacy Dog Rescue

Animal rescue in Youngstown, OH

Legacy Dog Rescue has two main purposes. First is rescue. We take dogs from many places. Pounds, stray & owner turn ins. We place them in foster homes then find them loving forever homes.

The second purpose is community service. Our spay/neuter program is very close to our hearts. We believe by focusing on spaying and neutering we are helping reduce the dogs that could be sent to the pound. We eliminate the problem before it happens. We also will assist financially to both dog owners and other rescues when appropriate.

We currently run a food assistance program to help dog owners that are struggling to feed their pets due to economic hardship. We are always accepting dog and cat food, or gift cards to help us keep food on hand.

Legacy Dog Rescue is located out of Mahoning County, but works closely with Trumbull County. We do not have a shelter, all of our dogs reside in foster homes (and we are always looking for more foster homes).
