My story

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

 

***DFW area only-No Exceptions***

Happy is a 2 year old American Staffordshire Terrier and possible cattle dog mix.  He was taken to the shelter when found stray and adopted as a baby. The adopter lives changed over the years and they are no longer able to give him the tone and attention he deserves. 
 

Happy loves to be played with, enjoys belly rubs, and is very social. In fact, if he thinks you are going to pet him, he will roll over to beg for a tummy rub! He is a very loving puppy who greets those he loves with a very happy tail! He is incredibly loving, sweet and cuddly. Puppies at this age will require patience and training to become the best pup they can be. Happy is potty trained. He knows sit and sits and waits until told to “go” for his food.  He does well with other dogs, cats and kids. He responds well to corrections from dogs and curtails his behavior accordingly. 

Current weight 40lbs

Crate trained

 

The adoption includes his neuter, three rounds of puppy vaccines, a rabies vaccine, microchip with registration, dewormer and a single dose of heartworm preventative.  If you're interested in meeting or adopting him, please complete an application on our website and someone will reach out to you within 48 hours.  https://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoptfoster/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/
