Story
Keenan brings so much joy to Thrive Animal Rescue! He’s slow to warm up, but those who have been patient enough to make it in his circle are rewarded with a friend for life. Once he gets to know you, he’ll offer a gentle paw for pets, happily show off his tricks, and even show off his goofy side.  He is a beautiful 3yo male, weighing around 22lbs of love. We think he might be a Spaniel x Papillion mix.  He came to us from a not so great situation, but he has come so far. He’s ready for a home that he can settle down in and feel safe - he would love to be your new best friend. Keenan would do best in his forever home with someone who lives in a relatively quiet and low traffic home/neighborhood, and with kids 15+ (or no kids). He would love an adopter who can offer him patience and kindness as he starts to learn that the world is not so scary. He would do well either as the only dog in a home to soak up all the love and attention, or with a very calm and neutral additional doggie friend. ♥ ##2511674##

Story
Tashi is a lovely, sweet older pup who is partially deaf. She loves being near her foster and quietly follows her around for companionship. She is looking for a calm forever home where she can snuggle and enjoy the sun. Tashi was living with an owner but the wife sadly passed away and the husband turned the dogs out into the streets. Tashi's doggy sibling unfortunately did not survive but now Tashi is with us learning about what love is again. The name Tacha in Japanese refers to “the beauty of a single standing flower”. Traditionally a tachi is a sword in Japanese culture used by samurai but this little lady will be nothing but soft and welcoming as she shares her singular beauty with the world! ##2428819##

Story
Hello my potential family. I am 25 lbs of pure LOVE. I enjoy going on short strolls and sniffing. Whether it is a car ride, going for a walk. I just love to be part of the mix. Give me a little time to warm up to you and the reward will melt your heart. I love being scratched under my chin or on my lower back, that really makes my tail nub go. I am the happiest little girl in the world. I do not mind other dogs, big or small, I have not met any cats, but I do not think they would be any problem either. I am a soft spoken, sweet, quiet soul and do not like a lot of noise or activity. When it gets loud and busy, I will go find a quiet place. I do have Glaucoma in my left eye, and need drops twice a day, but I am very good at taking them. I know where I am supposed to go to the restroom and will let you know if I need to go out. I look forward to meeting you.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

Donation Adoption fee includes up-to-date their 3 core puppy DHLPP vaccinations, spaying or neutering, deworming, flea medication, and a complementary health check up by a participating clinic near you. Please consider adopting one (or more!) of these fur babies! Due to high volume of calls; NO PHONE calls are accepted at this time - therefore, please text us or email us.- A minute of conscious - Please read:) We ask you Please to be SERIOUS adopters; as there have been so many people that are not ready. We set up meet & greet appointments, do a home visit or send them the address for some meet & greet locations, paperwork and suddenly they said they are not ready or spouse is not ready, etc. These fur kids have a very hard day the day of their appointment. Due to travelling we hold their food, so they won't get car sick. We bath them, some of them are schedule for grooming as you know it is stressful for them; then they have to travel with us picking up other rescued fur kids, and so on, it is a very stressful hard day for them for people to just cancel at last minute or not show up or do show up and just say they are not ready. Our time as well as your time is valuable. Please don't waste valuable time that is so precious for a rescued pet. Every single wasted time is a time that an animal will die because we didn't get to them on time to help them. In addition, of wasting gas and grooming fees which are paid by volunteers. Please take the time to put your shoes in the shoes of the volunteer and most of it to put your shoes on our rescued fur kids!! Please take a minute to tell yourself if you are ready to adopt and for this commitment. LIVE!! LOVE!! LAUGH!! ADOPT A RESCUED HOMELESS PET AND SAVE A LIFE!!
