Story
Meet Smore!Smore is a sweet 1-year-old pup weighing in at about 94 pounds, and she’s just as soft and lovable as her name suggests. She’s a sensitive girl who thrives in a calm, respectful environment, so she’s looking for a forever home with kids 13 and older who can understand her need for gentle handling and personal space.Smore has shown promising potential to live with another dog, as long as the other pup is polite and introductions are done slowly and thoughtfully. She communicates her boundaries well and appreciates canine friends who do the same.This lovely girl is not a match for homes with cats, but she has plenty of love to give to the right family. Smore is ready to blossom with people who understand her sensitivity and are excited to help her continue growing into the confident, happy dog she’s meant to be.If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a tender heart, Smore may be the perfect fit for you!

Story
Meet Hugo! Hugo is a 6-month-old, 39-lb Akita who loves hanging out with his people and loves to play with balls and water. He is a big baby but surprisingly calm for a puppy. He loves to lounge around with his humans. He is working on learning new commands and proper puppy behavior in the house. He loves to go for rides in the car and uses good behavior while out about with new people. He also loves a frozen kong with treats and peanut butter and any ball toy! If you're looking for a big fur baby that is fun to play with and can get out a walk with you but also loves to lay at your feet and relax Hugo would be a great dog for you. Hugo is currently being fostered in the Mason, OH area. His adoption fee is $300.00. 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.

Story
Meet Gorgeous Dark Brindle Akita Klive! Klive is a 6 month old full Akita saved from a puppy mill and he is already coming in around 60 lbs, so he is going to be a big boy. He has the most beautiful markings and that dark face, with those piercing eyes...you have to wonder what he is thinking, but then I realize he is thinking about his next toy! Klive is always on the lookout, any stops to listen to any new noise, I think those ears are antenna's! :) Klive's favorite things are the outdoors and his toys! He loves all kinds of toys, but squeaky ones and bones are his favorite. He is doing great on potty training, most of the time he will wait for his outside play time or he will go on potty pads in his enclosed room. He does Great on a Leash and Car Rides as well. Klive will lean into you for pets all the time and he likes to give you a few kisses while you are giving him a good rub. He seems to be good around other dogs as a puppy, but since he is going to be on the large side, you would have to watch him not to step on others. He doen't realize his size and Akita's like to "touch" with their paws, and his are not small! This boy will do about anything for a treat and you will be his person if you are the one giving them to him! If you are looking to have a Beautiful Big New Best Friend...Klive is the one for you! Eventhough Klive loves to go on walks and smell everything, he will also Require a Fenced yard to release some of his energy. His zoomies are for real. When he stretchs out and runs, he looks so beautiful! Akita's are AMAZING dogs, but not for everybody, please read up on the breed before applying.

Good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Kyro, our 18 month old Akita is searching for his forever home! Now is the perfect time to get him into a family that we know he will be so loyal to. He’s a neutered male who weighed 74lbs a couple weeks ago but has some room to grow still. He is vaccinated, microchipped, negative for heart worm and tick borne diseases. Now that we have his basic facts out of the way, let’s get to what his perfect home looks like! The best home for Kyro is one who is familiar with or at minimum, does research and gets to know the breed. Maybe you’re someone who is allergic to cats and could never have one, but could go for a cat-like dog in a larger body? That’s Kyro for you! While he can’t live with cats (or squirrels!), he will play and act like one. He’s good for some drive by attention. Give him some pets and he’ll be off on his way to continue exploring. He may even entertain himself with his toys while you’re doing stuff around the house. He super loves balls so bonus points for keeping those in the house! Later on he’ll lovingly watch you from the window if you dared to go outside without him. Big perk of him not actually being a cat? He goes to the bathroom outside! 100% of the time as he loves having a clean and tidy kennel. There’s also no risk of him scratching up your favorite ottoman or walking on your kitchen table since again he’s an Akita, not A-Kitty. The dog part of his personality does have a request. It’s quite simple though, in that he’d prefer a dog friend to be of the lady variety. He can be a bit of the rough and tumble type when it comes to playtime with dogs, so just make note of that! There’s nothing dainty about this handsome boy. If Kyro sounds like the dog you’ve been looking for, let us know! Submit your application at www.mercysdoorpetrescue.org so he can interview you. He’ll even show off his sit and down, and may even have new tricks to show you by then too as he is one smart cookie!
