Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Come meet me and 100+ of my adoptable friends at Louie's Legacy Animal Rescue's MEGA adoption event, Home for the Holidays! Saturday, December 13th, 2025 at Paradise Island in Staten Island from 11am - 3pm!
Meet Truffle! This 3-year-old, 24-lb brindle chiweenie is new to city life and taking it all in stride. He’s house-trained, gentle, and a little shy at first — but once he trusts you, he’ll follow you everywhere like a loyal little shadow. Truffle can still be a bit tentative on walks (those city noises are loud!), but he’s getting braver every day.
Truffle is a total love bug who thrives on calm, patient companionship. He’d do best with someone who can give him a steady routine, quiet reassurance, and lots of cozy spots to nap near his person. Once he feels at home, you’ll see his tail wag and his personality shine.
If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate pup who will reward your patience with endless loyalty and love, Truffle might just be your perfect match. 🐾💛
Truffle is currently being fostered in Manhattan, NY. His adoption fee is $550.
To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt
All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals.
For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible.
We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.
