Story
We take the dogs that are adopted down...so if a dog is on the website they are available. Obedience training and fully fenced in yard is required for all our pups. Completion certificate for training needs to be emailed once complete. When applying pictures/videos of your fully enclosed yard is needed. Please only send inquiries to the email in this bio all others will not be answered. Please read the bio before sending questions - we answer all we know about the dog here. If the question is not answered in the bio please send emails to info@HeidisLegacyDogRescue.com Hey new best friend, We’re Lucy & Ricky! We’re about 2.5 years old, we think! All we know is that we were roaming the streets in New Mexico on June 24, 2022 when we were found and vetted. The vet said we were around 5-6 months old at the time. The nice family that found us kept us for a year until we all moved to Tampa. Our found family was having another baby and needed to move in with family. But too bad for us, the new house wasn’t big enough for all of us. Now we’re being fostered in St. Pete, and it was like we’ve always lived here! We’re just happy pups living our best lives, waiting for our permanent forever home, together. Lucy: “First of all, bark bark bark, can I give you a bunch of kisses to show you how much I love you even though I just met you?? Thanks!! I think that need to kiss is because I think I’m part Chihuahua, maybe Dachshund, maybe something else? Now let me walk you through all my favorite things so you can prepare! I will bark because Im nervous or unsure of something or someone, but after a while, I settle right down so we can snuggle. Ricky and I eat breakfast together, side by side. If I walk away from my food bowl, Ricky always tries to eat all my kibble! So as we are getting used to our new surroundings, please stay near so we can both eat our own food and feel safe knowing you are around. After breakfast, Ricky and I will sprint as fast as we can around the fenced in yard, chasing each other around and having some super fun wrestle mania moments! I am the ultimate lizard hunter and will run and chase them. I’m so fast Ricky can hardly keep up! I LOVE toys! Oh boy oh boy! You toss a toy, and I’ll get it for you right away! Sometimes Ill even bury them so Ricky can’t find them, hehe. We are so used to playing freely in a fenced in yard that when our foster pawrents take us for walks, we give them a run for their money! We don’t really understand how walks work, BUT WE LOVE BEING OUTSIDE! Maybe you can teach us how to be really good walkers on a leash? We know we have the potential and just need the right training! Anyway, after dinner time we are ready to settle in for the night. Don’t get my wrong, we’d love to go out for a car ride or on an adventure, a walk, play in the backyard…but honestly, we’re super okay with just snuggling on the couch and catching up on some shows! I’d love to sleep with you in bed under the blankets but I am also ok sleeping in my open crate with my blankie. Ricky: “HI BARK BARK BARK! I’m a big small boy who enjoys simple pleasures like snuggling, looking out the window with Lucy, snoozing, eating, treats, and chasing Lucy in the backyard. (She’s so fast!!!) I think I’m part Corgi, Dachshund, and Min Pin which is why my legs are my best feature. My foster pawrents also think my ears are cute because one is always up, and one is always down. The first time I meet you I will have to greet you with my low woofs, but I quit that out as soon as I see you’re a good human. I am protective of my humans, but super curious so while the woof may startle you, I’m just a big baby who just wants a lil attention and I use my voice to obtain it! (Smart right?!) “Our foster pawrents are going to be sad when we are adopted but they know how special we are so they are working hard to find us the perfect permanent home.” Love, Lucy & Ricky Lucy & Ricky's adoption fee is $600 - obedience training is required after adoption and fully enclosed front or backyard is also required.
