**ONLY AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION IN FLORIDA ** Ever want a dog you can flip into “sport mode”? It’s me! Pick me!  I would love to do some doggie sports with you! In fact I thrive on them. I started out slow with fetch and learning how to walk nicely on the leash, but I'm ready to move on to bigger things. Maybe I'd enjoy dock diving or fast CAT. I have a high drive and want to please the humans I love, but I'm perfectly fine being crated. I would do best as an only dog or as a member of a crate and rotate pack. My adopter should have a fenced in yard that I can run in and have experience with sports dogs. I'm excellent when I get my energy out, but I can be destructive without exercise. About me: my name is Poe, I am a 3 year old now. I’m a neutered male with a factory tail. To apply to adopt go to lostangelsanimalrescue.org  Adoption Donation: $350.00October 2, 2025, 9:13 pm

Story
Spay/Neuter of dog is scheduled at a vet of our choosing and is part of the adoption fee - date will be on the adoption contract - this is if not already sterilized.   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 Meet Romeo! I am about 9 months old and weigh 65 lb. I’m a cuddle bug who loves to snuggle just as much as I love to play. I’m relentlessly curious about the world, and even though I’m a big guy, I can be a little intimidated at first—“I’m just a baby,” as my mommy says. But once I warm up, I’m all in for fun and friendship. I get along great with other dogs and bring a big, joyful energy to every moment. What I know and my nice habits: - I listen to basic commands like sit, paw, lay down, and I know to sit and wait when food is placed on the floor. - I’m trainable, eager to learn, and motivated by treats and your praise. - I’m a gentle soul who thrives on human affection and doggy companionship. Ideal home: Romeo would do well in a home with time to nurture his confidence and help him grow into a confident, well-behaved canine citizen. He’s best with families who can offer steady guidance, regular play, and lots of snuggles. With patience and love, Romeo will reward you with loyal companionship and endless heart. Romeo's adoption fee is $500 - obedience training is required after adoption and fully enclosed front or backyard is also required.

Story
Meet Theo He is a very loveable Rottie! The Rottie looks with a SUPER sweet personality great for any experience level. 6 yrs old~ Neutered Microchipped UTD on vaccinations On HW prevention House trained, Crate trained, Good leash manners, Knows Sit, Come, Door Manners, Kennel, Leave-it Good with most dogs , best paired with a female unless you have heavy breed experience Good with all the people he has met Good with children over 10 No small animals, or Cats No livestock Doesn't need an overly active lifestyle. He's fine to just lay and chill all day with his people 2 good walks a day and some play is all this boy needs He needs to stay on a high protein/fat diet to maintain weight Just wants someone to love and give him his best life A note from foster- He is a lovely boy and has done very well! He loves to play and hang out. At bedtime he is happy to run to his crate for his nighttime cookie! He loves to sunbathe in the yard and watch the world go by. He's good with the female dog he is paired with for play. He also loves the water hose!! He goes bananas to get wet. With a simple leave it, he will not chase the water spray. Overall he is going to make someone a wonderful dog! A little patience at first does a world of wonders for him to warm up quickly. We don't know the life he lived but we are showing him the good life is there. Intake story Transfer from a rescue so that we could help him find a forever home as we have experience with this breed. He was originally found dumped at Chamberlain High School in Tampa. If you would like to Foster, also please reach out! We supply everything!

Story
Buster is a lively and affectionate little guy with a lot of personality! Buster was rescued from a recycling area where he had been dumped with his sister. This handsome pup is always ready for fun and loves to romp around with his toys or his siblings. Buster is adventurous, loves being active, and would be the perfect match for a family that enjoys outdoor activities or has a yard where he can run and play. He’s also a cuddle bug who loves belly rubs and curling up next to his favorite people. Buster is eager to learn and picks up commands well. He would do best in a home that can provide the training and attention he needs to reach his full potential. He would also thrive with another active dog in the household, giving him a playmate to keep him engaged and entertained. At a little over a year old, and sweet as can be, he is house and crate trained and UTD with all vaccines and monthly preventatives. He most likely will reach a maximum weight of about 40 lbs.  He can't wait to meet his forever family! ##2185900##
