Story
Meet Chris!
Chris is 1 year old (birthday is 12/4/2022) lab mix weighing about 50 lbs. He is kind, sweet, playful, smart, and very energetic. His is a lab mix, but we think the mix is with border collie. Chris has lots and lots of endless energy. He needs lots of play time, love, and attention.
Chris takes time warming up to kids. Once he finds his person, he will love you fiercely and try his best to protect you. He's not necessarily picky over men or women but needs time to warm up to any humans.
Chris loves toys but must be supervised with them since he loves them to pieces. He does best with nylon bones or kong toys. He loves a good peanut butter kong too. He also loves to catch tennis balls and frisbees. He loves to play fetch, do obstacles, and play in the water (not a bath). The baby pool and the hose are his absolute favorite things. He will chase the hose for hours if you let him. He also loves playing with other dog friends. He'll even play with the cats if the cats let him.
Chris knows basic commands (sit, down, stay, go to your bed). He also waits to eat his food until you tell him "okay, go ahead". He sleeps in his own bed, but if you wanted him to cuddle in bed or on the couch he definitely would! He walks with a harness but gets pretty excited so needs some work on the walking skills.
Chris would do best in a home where someone is home most of the day and/or has a canine buddy (or buddies) to help burn his energy.
If you are looking for a new best friend, who will love you fiercely and is always happy to see you, then Chris is your guy!
Chris is currently being fostered in Morrow, OH. His adoption fee is $275.
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.
