Story
He's the cutest little boy. I will send lots of pictures and bios. In the past few days, he's actually shown a lot of signs of improvement and I feel like his eyes/expressions are changing to be more relaxed rather than always alert. He also really wants to go outside so we're just still working on the leash bc that's the last part he's really afraid of. Meet Captain! » จะ Captain is about 1 year old and is learning that people can be kind. After a difficult start in life, he's slowly discovering what it means to feel safe and loved. Every day he gets a little braver, especially when treats are involved—this sweet boy is incredibly food motivated and eager to learn! Captain absolutely loves other dogs and cats and gains a lot of confidence from having furry friends around. His favorite feature? His adorably oversized ears, which we lovingly call his "antennas" because they're always tuned in to what's going on. Captain is looking for a patient home that will let him blossom at his own pace. With time, kindness, and plenty of treats, this special little guy is going to make an incredibly rewarding companion.

Story
Odie is very anxious when left alone. My son recently moved out of state and I work all day. I feel Odie would be happier in a home with someone who is retired or works from home. He will let you know when he needs to go potty, but because I am gone all day he goes on a potty pad and occasional will urinate on his bed or the couch. I am told this is due to his anxiety. His stomach is sensitive so I feed him fresh food, specifically Spot and Tango beef and lamb. I am absolutely hear broken and the thought of giving him up, but I am moving in with a room mate due to finances and my room mate is not happy about having a dog. I just want what is best for him. I love him so much.

Story
​Cookie is being rehomed through no fault of her own. She is an absolute sweetheart! Rescued from the shelter when she was just 10 weeks old by our adult son. He got re-located and was unable to take her. She has grown up with 4 kids age 3, 7, 8 and 12. We gladly took her in. At 15 mo. She has grown into a gentle, affectionate, wonderfully socialized young dog. She has zero aggressive behavior, loves everyone she meets, ultimate lap dog who just wants to love and be loved. She absolutely adores children and thrives in a family environment!​Her favorite spot in the world is right on a kids lap or any other lap. ​She is fully crate trained. ​Well-Socialized. Friendly, gentle, and sweet-natured across the board.Over the last three months, our senior dog has developed severe aggression toward Cookie. We worked with a professional dog trainer, but unfortunately, the situation hasn't improved. Keeping them separated constantly requires continuous crating, which isn't fair to either dog.

Story
Don’t let the little white hairs fool you—this adorable black pup is just pretending to be a wise old senior. In reality, they’re still learning the ropes of senior life and blossoming beautifully in our care.When they first arrived, Brooks was a bit shy and unsure, but with a little patience (and a lot of belly rubs), he's transformed into a cuddle bug extraordinaire. His favorite hobbies now include snuggling up for naps, politely requesting ear scratches, and giving you those big “you’re my favorite human” eyes.He may look like he's seen it all, but really, he's just getting started on this whole “senior sweetness” thing—and trust us, he's nailing it. 💕If you’re looking for a lovable, pint-sized companion who’s equal parts charming and snuggly, Brooks would be delighted to audition for the role of your new best friend.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

Story
Olive is a sweet little dirty winged angel. She came to us extremely heavy, scared and sad. In just a short time, she has blossomed into a sweet, happy loving little girl. She weighs about 11 pounds. She is very quiet, loves walks and absolutely loves snuggles! It takes her a bit to warm up but now that she has she is just a super sweet joy to have around. Olive is good with other dogs and okay with kids. She likes to lie in the sun for short spells. She is good in the car.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org
