Story
Meet Angela - the 6-year-old, 8lb - sweetest little Maltese you'll ever lay eyes on. With her gentle spirit and a tail that never stops wagging. Angela will instantly melt your heart. This precious girl was rescued from a puppy mill, where she spent years being a momma. Now it's her turn to be showered with love, comfort and kindness. Angela is slowly learning what it means to be part of a family. She is working on her leash skills and potty training, and she does quite well in her crate. She likes being near people - cuddled up, soaking in affection, and finally experiencing the life every dog deserves. She is a gentle soul ready to blossom in a patient, loving home. If you're looking for a companion with a heart still full of love to give, Angela might be the one to complete your family. Angela is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $450.00. 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
Meet Miami! Miami is a 6 year-old Maltese who weighs in at 7 pounds. She has been in foster care for 2 weeks and is making great progress on learning how to be a dog! Miami's superpower is that she is the world's best cuddle bug, often times falling asleep in her foster mom’s lap! She would do best in a quiet household which has the time and patience to help her reach her full potential. She is pee pad trained, working on leash walking, and crate trained. Miami was shaved at her rescue due to matted fur, so she is starting to regrow her fur - and she's ready to start her new life with you! Miami is currently being fostered in Mason, OH, and her adoption fee is $450. 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.

Story
Lavina is a 6 year old, 7-pound Maltese with the softest white coat and an even softer heart. Rescued from a puppy mill, this sweet girl is slowly discovering what love and safety truly feel like. While she may be shy at first, Lavina has a gentle curiosity about the world and the people in it. With time, patience, and a kind heart, she blossoms into the most loving and tender companion. Lavina craves affection but needs slow, thoughtful introductions to build trust. Her ideal adopter will understand that healing takes time and will offer her a calm, secure environment to grow in confidence. Once she feels safe, her sweet personality and gentle spirit shine through, rewarding you with a loyal, loving bond. Lavina is currently using potty pads and will need some time to get used to her new environment before beginning potty training. If you’re looking to change a life and gain a devoted little friend in return, Lavina is waiting to find her happily ever after- with you. Lavina is currently being fostered in the Cincinnati, OH area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.
