Story
Meet Lavina – A Sweet Soul Ready to Shine!
Lavina is a 6-year-old, 7-pound Maltese with a heart full of hope. Rescued from a puppy mill, Lavina is learning what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family. While she can be shy at first, a little patience goes a long way—once she feels comfortable, her curious and playful personality begins to shine.
Lavina has made amazing progress in her foster home. With the help of a consistent routine, She’s doing great with crate and potty training and walks nicely on a leash.
Lavina truly lights up around other dogs and would thrive best in a home with a confident canine companion to show her the ropes. She has gotten along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes in her foster home and has also done well with respectful, older children who understand her need for gentle introductions.
If you’re looking for a tender-hearted girl with a spark of sass, Lavina may be the perfect match. She’s ready to continue her journey in a loving forever home—could it be yours?
Lavina is currently being fostered in the Cincinnati, OH area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.
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.
