Story
Hi, my name is Diesel and I have been here since December of 2025! I came here with my brother Shaggy. I am a super sweet and silly dog- I love to play and be pet. I like other dogs of any size, too. I am learning my manners still, but I am very smart and learn very quickly.

Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Took him from a shelter where he was going to be euthanized for his fear aggression of men. I saw potential for growth and improvement for his fear. I now have him at my home where I have contacted a personal trainer to help with his behavior. Loper is 5 years old, 76 pounds and is on a sensitive skin and stomach diet, and hip and joint supplements for his hip dysplasia and gabapentin. The vet does not see any problems at this time for his hips. Loper will need someone with experience in Akitas or knowledge. He is very smart and loves attention on his own terms. He has met dogs through a fence and seems ok. But has not met face to face. Loper is very sweet, tolerant, smart. He is crate trained and asks to go potty. He has medium energy. He loves walks and explore new smells, loves squeaky toys and chewing on chicken flavored nylabones. He will follow you around the house where ever you go. He needs to find his forever with someone you keeps up with his training.

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. 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.
