Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Rex is a sweet, happy 9-year-old golden retriever mix who has taken everything in stride despite a tough recent chapter in his life. After losing his owner, Rex and his brother Mercury found their worlds turned upside down. The boys unfortunately are no longer getting along in their current living situation, so Rex is now looking for a loving home of his own. Since arriving in his foster’s home here in NJ, Rex settled in beautifully and quickly showed what a wonderful companion he can be. He’s mellow, well-mannered, and loves to follow the energy of “his person.” Around calm people, he’s content and easygoing; around playful friends, he’s happy to join the fun! Everyone who meets him remarks that they cannot believe he’s 9 — he looks and acts years younger. Rex has been very respectful in the home and gets along well with the two large resident dogs. He’s previously lived with cats, too! He’s comfortable being left alone and enjoys baths. He has a playful side and even hopped onto the couch during a recent visit with friends — not his usual move, but he was feeling that good! Rex truly is a low-maintenance, affectionate senior with a young spirit. He’s been a wonderful guest in his foster home and is ready to bring joy, companionship, and stability to a family who will love him in return. He will be neutered, microchipped, and brought up to date on all vaccines prior to being adopted. His adoption fee is $300.   How to Adopt Me!

Story
🧡 URGENT: TEMP FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED BY 11/23 🧡 Meet Sir Griffin – the golden-hearted survivor who just wants to love and be loved! My name is Griffin; I’m a 45 lb. Golden Retriever mix, saved from euthanasia while in an overcrowded southern shelter after I was found as a stray. Boy was I in a rough condition. For the past eight weeks, I have been living in a foster home in South Jersey with my foster dad who loves me very much, treats me well and believes I am between 2 and 4 years old. I was recently groomed and the groomer said I was such a good boy. Here are some things my foster dad says about me. “Griffin is a great dog who really loves to please and be near his person. He loves attention, affection and cuddles, doing zoomies around the house or yard, going on walks, or playing with his toys. He loves to play fetch and tug-o-war. Griffin loves people and gets excited when someone comes to the house as he looks for the attention. He will bark and wag his tail when he sees someone outside, but that is a plus. He will make a wonderful companion. Grifin is also food motivated which makes training a breeze; he has already learned the following commands - no, sit, paw, wait, stay [he even learned the hand signal for stay (palm up facing out)], lay down, and take it nice (re: treats). He even knows to get on his dog bed at night when I tell him. Griffin is house-trained and alerts me when he needs to go potty. He also does great being home alone and lies by the door waiting for me to come home. (I have interior cameras). Griffin would do best with a family or individual with a large fenced yard for him to run and play fetch, and one where his adoptive pet parent(s) will be patient with him and continue to reinforce desired behaviors. He may benefit by having one (or possibly more) dogs in the home for him to play with and expend his energy. Older kids are recommended because we believe he is mixed with a “herding” breed and they can be nippy, but he only showed this attribute during the first week of his fostering. He no longer does this when someone comes in the house”. If you are interested in this sweet boy, or would like to see videos of Griffin, please call/text Karen at 413-629-8152! Thank you for caring about a pet in need!

Story
Come meet me and 100+ of my adoptable friends at Louie's Legacy Animal Rescue's MEGA adoption event, Home for the Holidays! Saturday, December 13th, 2025 at Paradise Island in Staten Island from 11am - 3pm! Sequoia is a 10-month-old, 45-lb Golden Retriever mix who brings sweetness, joy, and classic puppy charm everywhere she goes. She’s likely to get a bit bigger, but her gentle, loving personality is already shining through. This girl is an all-around really great dog. She loves meeting new people, plays beautifully with the resident dog, and happily allows baths, ear checks, and gentle handling. She’s showing typical puppy behaviors like a little play biting and jumpiness, but she’s smart and eager to please. Sequoia is currently working on her potty training and crate training and making steady progress with routine. Sequoia thrives when she knows someone is nearby. She does experience some mild separation anxiety, which is common at her age, but with reassurance and continued training she’s very likely to outgrow it. Because of this, she would do best in a home with a resident dog or someone who is home often to help her feel secure. Some of her favorite things include greeting every human she sees, playing with her foster dog sibling, and curling up close after a day of puppy adventures. If you're looking for a loving, social pup who will bring warmth, joy, and goofy golden-retriever energy into your home just in time for the holidays, Sequoia might be your perfect match. Sequoia is currently being fostered in Edison, NJ. The adoption fee for this animal 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.

Story
1 year old Golden/Pyrenees/Staffie mixPatch is a 1 year old Golden Retriever/Great Pyrenees mix looking for his forever home. His owners got him as a very young puppy, but didn’t know at the time that Patch was going to grow up and like to go after the neighbor’s chickens. They share that he is super sweet with humans, but just doesn’t care for livestock so he would be better off living in the suburbs. Please send us your phone number if you would love to hear more about Patch. November 30, 2025, 6:55 am

Story
Meet Mallow :) Mallow is a mixed breed, likely a blend of Retriever and Jindo. He currently weighs about 51 lbs. He entered a city shelter when he was around two years old. It's believed he was abandoned because he was highly excitable and barked a lot at the time. I rescued him just one day before his scheduled euthanasia. At that time, he was heartworm positive. Fortunately, he has now completed his treatment and been fully cured! After more than six months of consistent training, Mallow has transformed into a gentle and wonderful dog. He has great leash manners and absolutely adores people, showering them with affection. Mallow also gets along very well with other dogs. However, he can be a bit jealous, so we hope he can find a forever home where he can be the only pet. Fluffy and pure white like a marshmallow, Mallow will make a truly perfect companion. 🐾 Mallow is currently staying at a training center in South Korea, waiting patiently for his forever family. Once he finds an adoptive family, he can travel anywhere across the United States. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, and has even completed a full dental cleaning!

Story
Hi! I’m Beignet. I am a sweet 6 year old Sato originally from Puerto Rico. I am in great health, smart, affectionate and full of energy. I love to play and run so I’m best suited to an owner who has plenty of space and the ability to exercise me and give me love and attention- backyards are a bonus!! I love other dogs and people of all ages, while also fearful or certain things. I’m triggered by loud noises and can sometimes bark at strangers. I love food and treats - I’ll perform commands to earn them. I was adopted at 8 weeks old and have been with my loving family since then. This my mix breakdown: 30.1% Golden Retriever 25.4% Chihuahua 17.5% Bull Terrier 14.4% American Pit Bull Terrier 8.9% Poodle (Small) 3.7% German Shepherd Looking forward to hearing from you!!
