Story
Abbi came into our home 2 years ago and stole our hearts! She's about 3 years old. She’s patient with everyone (adults, teens, and kids). She gets super excited to go for walks, outside, car rides, for visitors and is amazing in her crate. She’s a massive cuddler but also enjoys laying alone. She’s a sunshine puppy but will not hesitate to shove her nose in the snow and hop around. She doesn’t chase animals (birds, cats, squirrels, etc) and does great with cats of all ages/sizes. She’s our personal door bell, letting us know someone’s at our door but also knows how to use her inside voice when asked. She hasn’t shown any aggressiveness besides a barking at strangers who get too close, but she also does it for attention. We're looking for a loving home with a family who can handle a strong energetic dog. While she has a lot of energy, she likes spending her days on the couch sleeping while we work. Fun fact: She has a fear of Altoid mints and will take off running if she smells them

Hey everyone! I am Lex. I am about 60 pounds and full of fun. I love going for walks and playing with my toys. Even though I am 60 pounds, I am a very gentle guy and just want attention and affection. Having a couch to snuggle up on would be great and I can be your best couch potato friend. I also like my other dog friends here but haven`t met any of the kitties yet.

Story
My wife and I were excited to adopt Inverness last March and welcome her into our family. Since that time, both of our work schedules have become more demanding, making it very difficult to give Inverness the attention that she needs. She is very high energy, and loves to run around the yard. She is crate trained, and house-trained, going potty outside before each meal and once again 2 hours after. We have had her on a vegetarian diet since we got her, and she's thriving on it.

Story
Name: Yumi Age: About 2-3 years Weight: About 66 lbs Likes/Favorite Activities: • Belly Rubs • Giving High-5 • Walks • Treats • Meals! • Running in the yard • Being near her people • ATTENTION! • Chewing on bones • Sleeping next to someone • Snoring • Wiggling her butt Dislikes: Being alone (without people) & baths Personality/Temperament: VERY fun loving and super sweet. Listens well and takes correction from other dogs. Happy girl! Energy Level: Moderate (rather typical for a dog her age) Favorite Treat(s): ANY, she isn’t picky! Eating Schedule: Twice per day (approx. 6 am & 6 pm) She is good with our dogs and cats. She has also been good with the kids she has been around (kids of all ages). She is housetrained with the occasional accident but that is decreasing the longer she is with us. She goes to the door if she has to go out. However, we tend to let our pups out more often than “normal” due to our other pups (not due to Yumi!) Crate Trained: She was using her crate when we were not home, however she does not love it. She tends to carry on when in the crate. Challenges: Honestly none that we have identified yet Medical Issues: Thankfully, none that we have identified. She does have an old injury to her back left leg, likely a partial tear that wasn't treated and has healed. This can cause some soreness with extended exercise. The BEST Home: One where she will be able to enjoy some activity and have companionship, with shorter periods of time when her humans aren’t home. Our adoption process starts with our application. Once the application is approved, a member of Legacy will contact you to set up a home visit. The home visit usually last 1-1.5 hours and is to make sure our dog and any current dogs/cats are getting along, as well as both of us agreeing it's a fit. At this time the adoption fee is due, and begins the 2 week trial. We will check in during the 2 week trial. If it's not working, our dog is returned to the foster home and all except $100.00 {$75 if Senior} of the adoption fee is returned. At the end of the 2 week trial, you decide if you will finalize the adoption - if finalized, the Adoption Contract is signed and all medical records are turned over to you. If at any time you need to rehome the dog it contractually needs to be returned to Legacy Dog Rescue. ADOPTION FEE's: Puppies under 6 months:  $199.00 Adults:  $150.00 Seniors (over 7 yrs):  $99.00 If you are interested in one of our dogs please fill out an application: https://form.jotform.com/193425528783165
