Story
This little 22 pound 8 yr old jack mix was found as a stray and brought into the shelter.. His medical history over all is unremarkable except he is heartworm positive. He is very scared in the shelter and should do well after decompression in a home setting. We will treat his heartworm condition and pay for that, right now what Riley needs for Christmas is a nice quiet home. He is not reactive to dogs in the shelter, and has allowed handling, so he just needs time. If you can help RIley and give him a foster home for the holidays, please submit an application at ewenityfarmsbch.com.. Thank you!

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 Hi, I’m Milo – 8.5 years young and still living life like it’s one big parade! I’m basically happiness on four paws. If you have a heartbeat (human, kid, or dog), I’m going to greet you like you’re a celebrity on a red carpet. My tail? It never stops. My smile? Always on. My motto? “The more, the merrier!” My Favorite Things About Me: Walkies! – The second my foster mom grabs the leash, I turn into a pogo stick! Bunny hops! – Too much joy = hopping down the hallway like a fluffy kangaroo. Neighborhood Reporter! – I bark to share important news: “HI! IT’S ME! LIFE IS AWESOME!” Social Butterfly! – People, kids, other dogs… everyone gets a Milo welcome. Leash skills: Solid 5/10! (I start out excited, then settle down.) Weather note: In Florida heat, sometimes I need a royal chariot ride back home. Cooler months? Let’s go forever! Indoors: Pretty chill… unless the mailman shows up. (We have a love-hate thing.) Health: My kidney levels are a bit high, but I take my supplement like a champ and feel great! Signature Move: The Milo Dance! A rug + me = cuteness overload. I’m not huge on toys or treats, but I’m BIG on love, walks, rolling on rugs, and making you smile every single day. If you’re looking for a joyful, funny, loyal sidekick with just the right amount of goofy, I’m your guy. Let’s make every walk an adventure, every rug a dance floor, and every day a reason to smile. Love, Milo Milo's adoption fee is $400 - fully enclosed front or backyard is also required.

If the question is not answered in the bio please send emails to   info@HeidisLegacyDogRescue.com &#226&#128&#139 Hi, I’m Peach! I just turned 1 yrs old (DOB 09/07/2024) I'm a Virgo, full of energy, and overflowing with love! I’m the kind of girl who greets life (and people!) with tail wags, happy hops (like a bunny), and a big ol’ smile. I grew up with other dogs and would love a furry sibling to play and snuggle with. The more the merrier, right? I adore humans—big and small—and while I can get a little too excited when saying hi, I’m working on my manners. I’m already housebroken (yep, nailed that part!) and I know a few tricks too. I'm pretty smart if I do say so myself. I love to run, zoom, chasing lizards, playing fetch (I go get it but don't bring it back to you) and play, so a fenced backyard would be a dream come true. Once I’ve had my fun, you’ll find me curled up next to you for some cozy couch time. W hether we’re going for walks or you’re carrying me like the princess I am (no shame!), I’m happiest just being with my people.   Think we might be a match? I can’t wait to meet you!   I am up to date on my vaccinations, on flea & HW medication, spayed and microchipped   Peach's adoption fee is $500 -  obedience training is required after adoption and fully enclosed front or backyard is also required.
