Story

Meet Otis! Otis is a 9-month-old German Shepherd/Terrier mix weighing about 45 lbs, and he’s the kind of dog who truly never meets a stranger. Sweet, social, and full of joyful puppy energy, Otis loves to play, run, chew on his favorite toys, go for walks, and then curl up for some well-earned snuggles. He’s incredibly affectionate and has not a mean bone in his body. This smart boy is a quick learner and eager to please, so much so that he didn’t have a single accident during a recent foster stay! Otis is still very much a puppy, but with some structure, continued training, and a person who enjoys working with an energetic dog, he’s going to absolutely thrive. And let’s talk about the looks: those irresistible puppy-dog eyes paired with his adorable little beard make it nearly impossible to say no to him. Otis would do best with an active adopter or family who has the time, patience, and enthusiasm to help him settle into his new home and continue building his skills. A yard and an adventurous lifestyle would be a big plus! With the right match, Otis will be an incredibly loyal, loving, and fun companion. If you’re ready for a smart, affectionate pup who’s equal parts playful and cuddly, Otis might just be your guy. Otis is currently located in Middletown, NJ. His adoption fee is $500. 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.

Bosco

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Young

Cranford, NJ

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

ONLY AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION IN NEW JERSEY AND LOCAL SURROUNDING AREAS!!! If your application is a possible match, a volunteer will get back to you within 48 hrs. No inquiries, please, without an application. Bosco is only 18 months old and has already been through so much in his short life. Severely neglected to the point that Animal Control had to seize him. He came in so skinny and insecure. In the short time that he’s been in boarding, we have seen him really come out of his shell and he is even a little goofy. He definitely needs training and leash manners. He definitely needs an experienced Shepherd owner that will give him the life that he deserves. He’s a lot of fun in the yard and loves to play fetch. He gives wonderful kisses when he feels safe and when he loves you it’s deep. If you are interested in Bosco, please go to bfdaaa.com to complete an application. November 17, 2025, 8:36 pm
