Story
Meet Daffodil! This bouncy gal transferred to us from the San Diego Humane Society! She was found running at large with her buddy Minnie (adopted, not a bonded pair), and they made their way safely to the shelter. Daffodil was scared and wary of the other dogs at first. Now, she loves to hang out with all her new friends, bounces around for attention, loves to climb onto our shoulders, and just wants to be loved! When around new folks, she is shy and fearful. Daffodil is looking for a home that can build her confidence. Regarding COVID-19 and other contagious illnesses: Please reschedule any visits if you are sick.

Small but mighty! This little Girl with her pups were found in the Mohave County Animal Shelter in Kingman AZ. The pups have found their forever homes, so now it is mom's turn to do the same. She is a sweetheart, but the shelter was very scary for her and she is learning to trust people again. ##2308572##

Dachshund Spaniel (Unknown Type)

Female, 12 yrs 6 mos
Lakeside, CA
Size

Good with dogs, House-trained,
Story
Snuggles, this adorable low rider, is quite the dog. She may look sweet and quiet (and usually is) but she is a sneak. She loves to chase cats, but gets over it once they whop her nose. She enjoys taking her brother's toys and snacks, which he seems oblivious to. They will take turns attempting to play catch (when they feel like it) with their toy squirrel. Snugs loves to be held, as well as car rides. She's not quite a lap dog because she has to initiate the love, but she will always be super excited to see her favorite people. She starts off a bit shy and wary but can warm up quickly when she feels safe, loved. Just a caution, her poor back leg joints do hurt her a bit so try not to grab her there. She doesn't become aggressive but you can tell she doesn't like having that area touched.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

Story
This 5 yr old stud muffin is a complex little fellow. He nailed housetraining within 3 days, but came from a home where he used pee pads and will use them if available. He is a true lady's man and will bark at men and visitors. He is currently rooming with 7 senior dogs. He seems a bit indifferent to them so he could likely be happy in a home with or without canine companions, however a playmate with similar energy to his would be a bonus. He has had a few instances of resource guarding, primarily his human. He is a classic wiener in every sense, equipped with every quirk Dachshund lovers know all to well. He is torpedo fast and enjoys turbo speed zoomies around the yard and playing fetch. He is terrified of being on leash. He is fearful of wheels, cars, bikes, skateboards. We are hopeful he overcomes his fearful tendencies. He rides well but apprehensive in the car. He is a great eater. A backyard is an absolute must have for this little bundle of chocolatey sweetness.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

He LOVES going in the car. He has always slept through the night. He has a wonderful appetite and loves his treats. When walking, he likes meeting other dogs in the complex.
