Story
Meet Autumn!
Autumn is a gentle, soulful 8-year-old Cocker Spaniel weighing 20 pounds, who is experiencing the world for the very first time. After spending most of her life in a puppy mill having litter after litter, she is finally getting the chance to learn what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family.
She is a quiet, tender girl who does wonderful with other dogs of all sizes. Early on she found a lot of comfort in following their lead as she adjusted to life in a home. As she has settled into foster care, she’s starting to gain more independence and confidence of her own, which has been wonderful to watch.
Autumn may be a little shy when meeting new people, but she warms up quickly. Once she feels comfortable, her sweet and affectionate personality really shines. She’ll happily wander over, flop onto her back, and ask for belly rubs, soaking up attention from her people.
Because so much of the world is still fairly new to her, Autumn would do best in a calm, patient home with a physically fenced yard. She feels much safer going potty off leash and is more successful when she can explore the yard at her own pace. Everyday things like household sounds, routines, affection, and freedom are still experiences she’s learning about, and she takes them in gently and thoughtfully.
What makes Autumn so special is the quiet courage she shows every day. Despite everything she’s been through, she continues to learn, grow, and discover that life can be safe and kind.
Autumn was recently returned to rescue after having some potty accidents in her previous home. After a veterinary visit, it was discovered that she needs to be on prescription C/D food to help prevent urinary crystals from forming. Because of this, her potty training is still a bit of a work in progress while she settles into the proper diet and routine. With patience, consistency, and understanding, we’re confident she will continue making great progress.
Autumn is looking for a calm, loving home where she can continue to decompress, build confidence, and blossom at her own pace. Her foster mom is committed to helping her find the stable, caring home she truly deserves.
If you believe in second chances and the quiet magic of watching a dog bloom, Autumn just might steal your heart. 🐾
Autumn is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $300.00.
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.
