My story

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

Meet this darling Yorkshire Terrier named Willow (aka Leela)! She is so affectionate and loves to give kisses. She also loves to sit in your lap. Willow had to have her eye removed and has very limited vision in the other eye, generally speaking she is considered a blind dog. Although, she only had 8 teeth removed she was already missing well over 20 others which if you do the math it doesn't leave a whole lotta teeth left. She needs a calm home where she would be safe. She does like to run around and is a happy little girl! Willow is about 10 years old and about 8 pounds. If you are a Yorkie lover then get your applications in ASAP.

More about this rescue

Lionel's Legacy is a San Diego based senior dog rescue and elementary humane education program. We provide a last chance for senior dogs entering the shelter systems in both San Diego and Los Angeles. We solely rely on fosters to care for our seniors temporarily while looking for their furever home or as permanent hospice fosters when the need arises.

We also believe in early education as a means of preventing pet overpopulation. As a second grade teacher at Central elementary in San Diego, I see first hand the difference educating our brilliant young minds can make.

Lionel's Legacy- Saving ONE senior dog at a time and educating MANY young minds to leave a legacy of compassion and advocacy!
