Story
The Pumpkin Crew Pups are 13 weeks old and ready to find their forever homes! According to Wisdom Panel, they are a mix of 12 breeds, primarily Chihuahua (46%), Shih Tzu (21%), and Dachshund (12%). Their estimated adult weight is between 9–15 lbs.Jarrahdale (Jarrah) loves to play, and her siblings are always ready for her shenanigans! When she sees her foster mom, she bounces around with her tail wagging. She loves attention but usually has time for only a quick snuggle before heading back to play. She wouldn’t want to miss out on too much fun! The puppies are sleeping through the night and working on their potty training. These little ones love to play and will need a canine playmate in their new home. They’re busy puppies who like to stay close to their people, whether that means being right underfoot or one step ahead. Because they’re so small, children in the home should be at least 10 years old and understand how to be gentle and careful around tiny puppies.

We are dedicated to rescuing dogs in shelters, dogs in abusive or neglectful situations, and dogs surrendered by their owners because of difficult circumstances. We place dogs in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process, which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a dog into their homes and lives. Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, microchipped, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. We assist dogs in distress without regard to age, breed or ease of placement. Dogs in the greatest need take priority. Finally, we strive to work with shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless dogs. ##2855785##

Their estimated adult weight is between 9–15 lbs.Lakota was initially the most fearful of the group. She would sit in a corner shaking and run away from anyone who tried to touch her. Thankfully, she settled in quickly. Within a day or two, she was comfortable being held and stopped shaking. By day three or four, she was happily bouncing around for attention whenever her foster mom entered the room. Now, Lakota calmly settles into someone’s arms, knowing she’s safe and loved. She enjoys joining Jarrah’s games and curling up with her siblings for a good nap between play sessions. The puppies are sleeping through the night and working on their potty training.

Story
Bella's a playful and loving 4 year old pup. She loves cats and attention. She does not like other dogs though. She was raised with cats and think she is one. She is house trained. But we have always kept her out of rooms that have carpet because when she was a puppy she did pee on the carpet but never on our tile or hardwood floors. Our last son that was born is highly allergic to dogs. We hate to rehome her but she is a great dog. She would do well with somebody that is home all the time because she would not do well being crate trained.

Story
Meet Milrany! Named after the Melissa road where she was found, Milrany has quite the story, and an even bigger personality. After overcoming some serious medical challenges, she's healthy, happy, and making up for lost time with adorable zoomies that will have you wondering if she's really 5 years old. Milrany is sweet, smart, and incredibly devoted to her people. She can be a little cautious when meeting someone new, but once you've earned her trust, you've got a loyal best friend for life. She loves other dogs, gets along with cats, and is perfectly happy cheering on the big dogs from the sidelines while barking encouragement. She's house-trained, sleeps happily in her crate next to her foster mom's bed, and would be thrilled to graduate to snuggling in bed with her forever family. Most days, though, she's content to curl up in a soft dog bed, keep an eye on her favorite person, and sneak in a few cuddles whenever possible. Milrany has a permanent puppy face, adorable poodle-like fur that hardly sheds, and a PhD in begging (we're working on that!). She doesn't need a ton of exercise—just regular potty breaks, a cozy place to nap, and someone to love. If you're looking for a loyal little companion with a zest for life and enough sweetness to melt your heart, Milrany is ready to meet you! Stats: 5 years old, 10 lbs, spayed, low exercise, low shedding, dog and cat friendly, diet: C/D dog food

Story
💙 MEET BUNG! 💙 Bung is a sweet 8-year-old gentleman with an irresistible smile and a heart full of love. This little charmer has one main goal in life: to be someone’s shadow… literally. 😂🐾 If you get up, Bung gets up. Going to the kitchen? He’s coming. Bathroom? Obviously, you need supervision. Settling onto the couch? Make room for Bung! Bung is diabetic, but his diabetes is well managed with insulin. He doesn’t let it stop him from being the loving, happy boy he is. He’s affectionate, devoted, and ready to find his person — preferably someone who doesn’t mind having the cutest little shadow following them everywhere. ❤️

Meet Buddy!  8-Year-Old Shih Tzu | 18 lbs. | A Little Gentleman with a BIG Personality! If you're looking for a sweet, funny, affectionate little companion who will keep you smiling and fill your home with love, Buddy is your boy!   Buddy is a handsome, purebred Shih Tzu with striking black-and-white markings, an adorable little face, and a personality that's larger than life! This happy little fellow enjoys the finer things in life, especially food! Buddy is a little on the chunky side and certainly doesn't believe in missing a meal! One of his most adorable habits is sitting up on his back legs and having an entire conversation with you. He's quite the little comedian and knows exactly how to charm his audience, especially when treats are involved! Behind all that personality is an incredibly loving little boy who adores affection, snuggles, and simply being close to his people. Buddy has so much love to give and is ready to share it with someone special. Buddy's Story Buddy's world changed when his beloved owner passed away. Thankfully, a caring family member stepped in to provide a loving home for Buddy and his sister, Baby, during a very difficult time. Unfortunately, when their caregiver faced eviction and could no longer keep them, the heartbreaking decision was made to ask for help finding them safe, loving homes. That's when Legacy Humane Society stepped in to give Buddy and Baby the opportunity for a wonderful new beginning. Despite all the changes in his life, Buddy has remained a happy, loving, affectionate little gentleman. He has so much personality and an incredible ability to make everyone around him smile. Now, at 8 years young, Buddy is hoping to find a forever family who will cherish him, spoil him with love, and give him the security of knowing he will never have to worry about losing his home again. What Makes Buddy So Special? A Little Comedian! Buddy loves to sit up on his back legs and "talk" to you! Whether he's asking for a treat, some attention, or just wants to join the conversation, he will keep you entertained with his adorable antics. A Professional Food Enthusiast! Buddy LOVES his food and treats! He's a little chunky, and his enthusiasm for mealtime is just another part of his irresistible personality. A Sweet and Affectionate Companion! Buddy enjoys being loved on, spending time with his people, and soaking up all the attention he can get. He has a gentle, loving side that makes him an absolutely wonderful companion. A Great Little Houseguest! Buddy is both house-trained and crate-trained. Even better, he is trustworthy when left alone and does not need to be crated while his family is away. A Wonderful Walking Buddy! Buddy walks nicely on a leash and enjoys getting outside for short walks, fresh air, and a little adventure. Your Favorite Copilot! Buddy loves car rides and especially enjoys riding shotgun! He's always happy to accompany his favorite person on an outing. Dog and Family Friendly! Buddy does well with other dogs and would be a wonderful companion in a home with older children who understand how to be gentle and respectful with smaller dogs. Buddy's Health & Care Buddy has been well cared for and is ready for the next chapter of his life! 8 years old Approximately 18 pounds Purebred Shih Tzu Neutered Up to date on vaccinations Heartworm negative Just had a full dental! House-trained and crate-trained Good with other dogs Good with older, respectful children Buddy has a beautiful, low-shedding Shih Tzu coat that requires regular professional grooming and daily brushing to keep him comfortable, healthy, and looking his handsome best. Buddy's Dream Forever Home Buddy isn't asking for much. Just a loving family, a comfortable place to rest, some delicious meals, an occasional treat (or two!), and people who will appreciate his silly personality and shower him with affection. He would love a home where he can enjoy being part of the family, accompany his people on little adventures, and spend his days knowing he is safe, loved, and cherished. Buddy has spent his life knowing what it means to be loved, and after losing his owner and the only home he knew, he deserves the chance to experience that kind of love again. He may be 8 years old, but Buddy has plenty of personality, happiness, and love left to share. And anyone lucky enough to welcome him into their life will quickly discover just how special this little boy truly is. A Special Note About Baby Buddy also has a sweet sister named Baby, an 8-year-old Shih Tzu who came into rescue with him. Both have experienced the loss of their beloved owner and the uncertainty of losing their home. They each deserve a wonderful forever family and a happy new beginning! Ready to Make Buddy Part of Your Family? If you've been looking for a sweet, funny, loyal little companion with a huge heart and an even bigger personality, Buddy might just be the perfect addition to your family! He has already experienced so much change in his life. Now he's ready for the best chapter yet — a forever home filled with love, security, laughter, and plenty of snuggles. Could you be the one to give Buddy his happily ever after? ❤️ Buddy is available for adoption through Legacy Humane Society. To apply to adopt Buddy, please complete an adoption application here: https://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoption-application/ Please share Buddy's story and help this precious little gentleman find the loving forever home he deserves! ❤️ We do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program.

Story
Meet Baby! 8-Year-Old Shih Tzu | 15 lbs. | A Little Princess with a BIG Personality! If you're looking for a sweet, funny, affectionate little companion who will keep you smiling and fill your home with love, Baby is your girl! Baby is an adorable, purebred, 8-year-old Shih Tzu weighing approximately 15 pounds. This precious little lady has a sweet, shy personality and a heart full of love. She's sure to steal your heart! Baby is a happy, lovable little girl who enjoys the finer things in life, especially BELLY RUBS! She certainly doesn't miss a chance to get one and knows exactly how to charm her way into a belly rub by rolling over on her back and looking up at you with the sweetest expression! She'll happily cuddle and snuggle with the slightest invitation, especially if there might be a tasty reward involved! This little princess knows exactly how to win your heart. But Baby isn't just entertaining; she's an incredibly loving and affectionate little girl who enjoys spending time with her people. Whether she's snuggling beside you on the couch, keeping you company around the house, or simply soaking up your attention, Baby is happiest when she's surrounded by love. Baby is house-trained and crate-trained and can be trusted to have free roam of the house. She walks beautifully on a leash and enjoys short strolls in nice weather. She's also always up for a car ride and loves riding shotgun with her favorite person! Whether you're heading out for a little adventure or enjoying a quiet afternoon at home, Baby is happy to be right by your side. Baby's Story Baby and her beloved brother, Buddy, have experienced some heartbreaking changes in their lives. Their world was turned upside down when their mom passed away. A loving family member stepped in and opened her home to them, determined to keep these precious little dog's safe and loved. Unfortunately, due to an unexpected eviction, she is unable to take them to her new home. Wanting only the very best for Baby and Buddy, she reached out to Legacy Humane Society for help finding them the loving forever home they deserve. Through all these changes, Baby has remained a sweet, happy little girl with so much love to give. She and Buddy have been best friends their entire lives, and our greatest wish is to find a wonderful family willing to adopt them together so they can spend their golden years side by side. Imagine having twice the love, twice the snuggles, and twice the entertainment from these two adorable little companions! A Little More About Baby Baby is approximately 15 pounds, spayed, up to date on her vaccinations, and heartworm negative. She has also just received a full dental cleaning, so this precious little princess is all caught up on her veterinary care and ready to begin her next chapter with a loving forever family! Baby is good with other dogs and older, respectful children. She is house-trained and crate-trained and can be trusted to have free roam of the house. Like other Shih Tzus, Baby is a low-shedding breed but requires regular professional grooming and daily brushing to keep her beautiful coat healthy and comfortable. At eight years young, Baby still has plenty of love, laughter, and wonderful memories to share. She's looking for a family who will treasure her, spoil her with affection, and give her the security of knowing she's finally home for good. Could you be the happy ending Baby and Buddy have been waiting for? If you have room in your heart and home for this precious little girl, and hopefully her beloved brother, Buddy, too, please consider opening your heart to them. They've already lost so much, and they deserve a future filled with love, comfort, and happiness. Apply to adopt Baby through Legacy Humane Society: https://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoption-application/ Baby is being fostered through Legacy Humane Society.
