Story
Meet Saint – A True Survivor Ready for His Forever Home! Saint is a stunning Catahoula/Dutch Shepherd mix with a heart as big as his story. This handsome boy was rescued from a local shelter after being found all alone with a severely broken leg. He was in desperate need of medical care, and thanks to the quick action of Legacy Humane Society and the loving care of his foster family, Saint is now fully recovered and thriving! Now healed and full of life, Saint is ready for his next chapter—with a forever family who will love him as much as he’ll love them. He’s housebroken, crate trained, and fantastic with people and other dogs. (He hasn’t been cat-tested yet, but we’re happy to do so upon request.) Saint is an energetic, athletic pup who lives for playtime. He’s a fan of fetch, tug-of-war, and zoomies, so an active home (and maybe a playful canine sibling) would be perfect for this spirited guy. He plays hard and loves harder! ✔️ Vetting Info: • Neutered • Up to date on vaccinations • Microchipped • Heartworm negative DOB: 4/23/24 ⚖️ Weight: 45 lbs  Adoption Fee: $125 If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a loyal, loving, and playful pup, Saint is waiting for you! Fill out the adoption application today, and his foster will be in touch: 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.

Story
Looking for you ride-or-die soulmate-the kind who sticks by your side through every season of life? Kennedy might just be your girl. She's a survivor with a heart of gold. In 2018, Kennedy was rescued from a shelter where she endured Hurricane Harvey in an outdoor cage, facing 140 mph winds. Whatever came before that storm, she's never let it define her. Kennedy is resilient, wise, and full of love. For the past six years, she's been more than a pet, she's been a steady companion, a hiking partner, a sunset-watching sidekick, and a quiet comfort during hard days. She's snuggled through tears, celebrated joyful moments, and made solo walks feel like shared adventures. Kennedy doesn't just live in your home--she lives in your heart. Kennedy's ideal home is peaceful and loving. She's not a fan of chaos or high-energy dogs, and she's grown less tolerant of small or bouncy pups. She'd thrive as your one-and-only or with other big dogs who respect her space and vibe. She is ready for her next chapter, a home where she can be someone's best friend, protector, and partner in quiet joy. If you're looking for a dog who truly sees you, Kennedy is waiting. The adoption fee for all of our dogs is $300.00 and that includes their vaccinations, spay or neuter, rabies and microchip. Our dogs are also heartworm negative (or we will cover their treatment). To start the process please visit our website and fill out the adoption application (www.dfwrescueme.org) and from there the foster family can answer any questions and arrange a time to meet. Kennedy is participating in the DFW Rescue Me Guest Dog Program, so custody and ongoing care are provided by the foster, not by DFWRM.September 21, 2026, 12:02 am

Story
Neal is a relaxed and sweet dog who seems to enjoy both playtime and affection from people. From our volunteer observations, he tends to be a bit shy and keeps to himself around other dogs, though he appears comfortable when approached and greeted. Neal has shown gentle corrections when he needs his space, but overall seems to get along well with canine companions in a calm, laid-back way. Contact us about Neal today!

These pups are in The Colony, Texas too!

Story
Meet Brownie, a beautiful 2-year-old spayed female Shepherd mix with a gorgeous brown and black coat and a personality just as sweet as her name!Brownie absolutely LOVES people and seems to believe that strangers simply do not exist. Everyone she meets is immediately a potential new best friend! She is affectionate, outgoing, and always excited to make new friends.Brownie is also a high-energy girl who loves to stay busy. She appears to be dog friendly and may really enjoy having another playful canine friend in her new home to help her run, play, and burn off some of that energy. A meet and greet with any resident dogs will be required.She loves treats, although she is still learning that fingers are not part of the snack! With a little practice and consistency, she should quickly learn how to take treats more gently.Brownie can also get a little overexcited when greeting people and likes to jump up to say hello. She will need a family willing to continue working with her on her manners and helping her learn that four paws on the floor gets her plenty of attention too!If you’re looking for a happy, energetic, people-loving girl who is ready to play hard, love even harder, and become part of the family, Brownie may be the perfect match!

Story
Meet Lloyd, a handsome Shepherd/Retriever mix with a white coat covered in brindle patches—including the cutest patch right over his eye! This large boy has a sweet heart and an energetic, friendly personality.Lloyd can be a tiny bit shy when meeting someone new, but he warms up quickly. He is dog-friendly, though a meet and greet with any resident dogs is required to make sure everyone is a good match.An outdoor enthusiast, Lloyd walks wonderfully on a leash and enjoys taking in all the smells, sunshine, and fresh air. He also loves running around the yard, playing with toys, and chasing a Frisbee! He would be thrilled to find a family who will include him in their adventures and spoil him with love.Lloyd already knows how to sit and is still building his repertoire of fancy tricks. His love of treats—especially jerky treats—makes a tasty reward for practicing new skills! He also does great in the bath, so cleaning up after a fun day outside is no problem.If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion to share your adventures, Lloyd would love to meet you!AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION AT THE DOG STOP IN THE COLONY!
