My story

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

There are dogs that stand out. That are just amazing. That people were unkind to. We do our best to help them get over their previous trauma. He is a special guy and once he steals your heart he will never let go.

Meet Sweet Potato!

Sweet Potato and his sister, Cranberry Sauce, were found in the country on their own; alone and scared these two sweet siblings were trying desperately to survive.

A wonderful good Samaritan could not leave them and decided to save them and help them find a new life where they would be safe and loved. She was able to safely secure and care for them but owners were never located. The kind Samaritan reached out to Legacy Humane Society for help finding them loving forever homes.

Puppies are playful, active, and loving. They need someone will lots of time and patience to raise them to be the best adult dogs they can be!

$325 donation includes three rounds of puppy vaccines, dewormer, a one-year rabies vaccine, microchip and registration, and spay/neuter. Adopter will take the puppy to an LHS-approved vet to be spayed/neutered at 16 weeks of age per the spay/neuter agreement and in accordance with Chapter 828, Texas Health and Safety Code.

Please complete an adoption application and someone will reach out to you within 48 hours via email. https://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoptfoster/adoption-application/

*Due to the high volume of applications and inquiries for puppies, we will not be able to respond to or consider interest from those outside of the Dallas/Fort Worth Area.

We do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program. They are all kept in foster homes until they are adopted. Therefore, if you are interested in adopting from LHS, please complete an online application at http://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ and we will contact you asap about the status of your application.

Additional adoption info

Adopters will complete an adoption app. If he/she has a pet, we will check their vet reference and a home visit is not needed (as long as the vet reference is current). All pets must be up to date current on Heartworm prevention and S/N. If a home visit is needed, we will complete that ASAP--as we don't want any delays in the adoption process. The adoption fees are listed here: https://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoption-fees/. There is a 5-day grace period to make sure he/she is a good fit for your family. A full refund will be issued if the pet is returned within the 5-day trial period. Before you chose to adopt, check out this link for a few items to consider before making this big step: https://legacyhumanesociety.org/are-you-ready-to-adopt/
