Story
Meet Lulu (and her bestie Lily!)  — two tiny lovebugs ready to steal your heart! Lulu is an adorable black terrier mix, around 1–2 years old, with a snuggly soul and the softest fur made for cuddles. She was rescued as a stray in Puerto Rico and spent a happy year with her human before life took an unexpected turn. Now she’s ready to start a new chapter — this time, side by side with her best friend, Lily!  About Lulu: A total lap dog who loves nothing more than cozying up with her favorite person. Gentle, sweet, and happiest when she’s being held or snuggled under a blanket. Doing great in her foster home with kids and other dogs! Working on potty training and getting the hang of the routine like a little champ.  Better Together:Lulu and Lily are a package deal — and trust us, you’ll be so glad they come as a pair! These girls are inseparable and give each other confidence, comfort, and plenty of giggles. They play together, nap together, and melt hearts together daily.  Their Dream Home:They’d love a home where someone is around often to soak up their affection and return it tenfold. They’ll reward you with double the love, double the snuggles, and double the tail wags!  Lulu and Lily have so much joy to share and are waiting for the family that will let them keep writing their story — together. Their combined adoption fee is $500. Ready for twice the love and endless cuddles? These girls are ready to meet you!  ##2650439##

Story
Meet Lily  (and her best friend Lulu!) — two tiny sweethearts with huge hearts! Lily is a small white terrier mix, about 2 years old, with a personality that’s pure sunshine. She’s loving, loyal, and downright adorable — the kind of pup who wants to be wherever her people are. Affectionately nicknamed a “Velcro dog,” Lily is happiest when she’s snuggled up next to you or following along for whatever the day brings.  About Lily: Super friendly with dogs, kids, and every human she meets! Social, affectionate, and always ready for cuddles or playtime. Working on potty training and learning her routine like a pro — she’s got experience with both potty pads and outdoor breaks. Loves being part of the fun, but also melts right into you for cozy naps.  Lily + Lulu = Double the Love!Lily and Lulu are a bonded pair — two best friends who have faced everything in life side by side. They depend on each other for comfort, confidence, and companionship, and keeping them together means keeping their little hearts whole.  Their Dream Home:These girls would do best in a loving home where someone is around often to soak up their affection. They’ll fill your days with laughter, warmth, and all the cuddles you could ever want.  Lily and Lulu can’t wait to start their next adventure together — in a forever home full of love. Their combined adoption fee is $500. If you’re ready for twice the joy and double the snuggles, these girls are ready to meet you!  ##2650441##

Story
We take the dogs that are adopted down...so if a dog is on the website they are available.   Obedience training and fully fenced in yard is required for all our pups.   Completion certificate for training needs to be emailed once complete.  When applying pictures/videos of your fully enclosed yard is needed. Please only send inquiries to the email in this bio all others will not be answered. Please read the bio before sending questions - we answer all we know about the dog here. If the question is not answered in the bio please send emails to   info@HeidisLegacyDogRescue.com WARNING - CUTE BONDED PAIR ALERT Peach is a devoted mother and a high-energy Jack Russell Terrier mix who leads her son Sprout on daily adventures. This duo is as tight as peas and carrots, and they love running around with a toy in their mouths at the same time, then snuggling up for a nap or bedtime. Peach greets life with a wagging tail, bunny-like hops, and a big, friendly smile. She grew up around other dogs and adores humans of all sizes, though her greetings can be a bit enthusiastic at first. With time and training, her manners will shine as brightly as her energy. Peach is housebroken, enjoys the doggie door, and knows a few tricks. She’s smart and confident, and she’s looking for a loving family who can provide a fenced yard and plenty of playtime to burn off her boundless enthusiasm. Sprout is Peach’s adventurous son and a lively Jack Russell Terrier mix who loves to zoom, chase leaves and lizards, and play fetch (though he’ll often fetch and bring the toy back a bit later!). Like his mom, Sprout greets life with a wagging tail, happy hops, and a big smile. He grew up around other dogs and thrives in social settings, big and small, though he can get a little overexcited when saying hello. Sprout is bright, eager to learn, and already knows a few tricks. He is housebroken and comfortable using a doggie door, and with patient training he’ll refine his manners even further. Sprout would be happiest in a home with a fenced yard where he can run freely and a family ready to keep up with his high energy and loving nature. Both Peach and Sprout are up to date on vaccinations, spay/neutered, microchipped and on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Both dogs are under 25 lbs. Peach approx DOB is Sept 2024 and Sprout's DOB is May 2025.

Story
Bowie is a 20lb Terrier mix (Vet thinks Jack Russell mix) about 2-3 yrs old looking for someone very patient. He was abused and then we believe he was let out to fend for himself and from what we see, he had a tough time on the streets by himself. When Bowie first came to us as a stray, we did everything we could to reunite him with his family, he was posted on over 50 social media sites, he was registered with every shelter within 50 miles just in case his family called the shelters looking for him. No one ever came forward. He has gone from a scared, growling, wanting to bite if you got near him little boy, to now being a lot more socialized, trusting us, sitting on our laps, wanting to play and just being a great rescue. It will take time for him to trust you, but once he does he is your best friend. Bowie gets along with our rescues here but we do notice that he gets a little attitude when we are showing the other pups attention. He really is just looking for attention and he is picky about who he shares that attention with. He also has some food aggression with other dogs, we can take his food away with no issues but he growls if any other dog tries to get near his food. We solve that by feeding him in another room and we do not keep food down in the house. He needs the perfect family to show him lots of love and attention and he will be the greatest companion pup to that family! Adoption fee $350 (We prefer that he is an only dog and all attention goes to him) He loves unconditionally once he trusts you.
