My story

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

Age: approx. 6 years Weight: 54 lbs 

Coco was rescued from an abandoned property where she'd been living outside and foraging for food. A kind citizen took her in and is now fostering her until she finds a forever family to call her own. She has been spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Coco tested positive for heartworms and has started treatment via the slow-kill method. This doesn't restrict her activity or have side effects that can often make traditional heartworm treatment difficult. 

Coco and D.O.G.'s faces show a lifetime they shouldn’t have had to live — but their hearts are still full of love to give. At just 6 and 8 years old, their silver came from surviving harsh conditions, not old age. Now it’s their turn to know what ‘the good life’ feels like.

A note from her foster family: 

She is crate trained and potty trained. She met my son and did well. She did meet my dog from a distance in the garage while she was in the exercise pen and growled. She is shy but a sweet girl who is slow to warm up. Once she feels safe, she gently paws for attention and pets. She wants to be cuddled. She’s easily startled and may hide or pull back, but she has shown zero aggression. She’s still nervous with the leash and needs slow, calm handling. Coco will do best in a quiet environment with patience and consistency.

Coco's adoption fee is $275 and you can apply to meet her here:  Adoption Application - Legacy Humane Society



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/
