My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Between October 1st and 15th my adoption fee is sponsored! Thanks to the Bissell Pet Foundation's Empty the Shelters campaign, my new family can take me home for only $50! Please apply online to start the adoption process-- I can't wait to meet you!

Meet Betsy! She is a remarkable 2 year old, 12 pound Bichon Frise who has triumphed over a challenging past in a puppy mill.

Betsy's journey has been one of strength and resilience and she is now seeking a loving forever family where she can finally experience the warmth and care that she deserves!

In her foster home Betsy is discovering the simple pleasures of life that she has missed out on for to long. Betsy journey to healing is ongoing and she is ready to continue it with a family willing to provide her with the security and love that she deserves. She is crate trained and low-energy, and though she takes time to warm up to her humans, does do well with other dogs!

Betsy's past doesn't define her. Her future, filled with love and care , is what truly matters. If you have a compassionate heart and the willingness to help Betsy on her path to happiness, please consider making her a cherished member of your family. Betsy is a brave girl who's ready for a second chance in a loving forever home!

Betsy is being fostered in Port Reading, NJ. Her adoption fee is $600.

Betsy is a Patron Pup. Patron Pups have higher adoption fees due to varying reasons and are adopted quickly, even with these higher adoption fees. They may be purebred, a highly desirable breed, small in size fully grown, etc. These fees allow them to act as patrons to other pets in our care who may not be as adoptable, or have ongoing costs for medical care, contributing to a longer time in rescue, and therefore a higher cost for us to care for them. Patron Pups allow us to continue rescuing these other animals and give them a better chance at finding their forever homes as well.

To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt

All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals.

For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible.

We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.
