My story

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

Rihanna and Rufus are a bonded pair that were dumped at the county shelter about 2 years ago. Bald & sick, they were nursed back to health under the care of the shelter and local vet. Rufus and Ri were pulled into foster and then rescue when they had been to many adoption events with no luck at their furever home. They love to wrestle together, be with their people, play endlessly in a fenced in yard, mole hunting. They love children and other dogs. They are indoor, family dogs.

More about this rescue

At Cleo's Legacy, we are committed to making a positive change in the lives of homeless dogs. Our organization was founded in 2024, after founder, Alex Siska, lost her soul-dog & lifelong companion to old age.
Cleo helped pave the way for rescue work when she was brought home infested with parasites as a baby. Cleo’s brilliant joy, empathy, and love introduced Alex to open her heart for dogs found on the street and at local shelters. Through volunteer work, we saw a need when we realized there were very few volunteers in the Bracken County area, and even less funding. These predicaments didn’t stop the shelters influx of dog dumps and continued over-capacity.
Since then, Cleo’s Legacy has been dedicated to providing a variety of services for homeless dogs - including fostering, adoption, medical care, and funds toward training. We believe in the power of community and working together to make the world a better place.
