My story

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

Mama is a bit over one year old and approx 55 lbs. She does well with kids and other dogs, but cannot be in a home with cats. She's fully potty trained and uses a doggy door. Mama loves people, is eager to please, and is obedient.

Mama was saved by one of our fosters the night before a freeze. She'd just given birth to eight puppies and was living in an abandoned trailer in a rural area. Her pups are now ready for homes of their own, which means Mama is as well!

She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and given a Proheart12 in early March. She tested positive for heartworms and the Proheart will prevent new infections and allow existing heartworms to die off in their normal cycle. She will be retested for heartworm in 12 months. Her adoption fee is $275 and you can apply for her here: https://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoption-application/

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/
