Story
Meet Morticia! Morticia is a 5-year-old, 40-pound mixed breed with a heart full of love and a favorite pastime—snuggling with her people. This sweet girl has plenty of superpowers! She's exceptionally house-trained and can comfortably hold it for long periods without accidents. Morticia is also a smart cookie who already knows commands like come, sit, and down. Most of all, she's a true cuddle bug who is happiest relaxing beside the people she loves. While Morticia is deeply devoted to her family, new places and unfamiliar environments can make her feel anxious. She thrives on routine and feels most comfortable in familiar surroundings. On walks, she prefers to keep to herself, giving other dogs and people plenty of space. Because of this, a home with a physically fenced yard would be ideal for her. Morticia's favorite things are simple: a good meal and spending quality time close to her humans. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will greet you with excitement every time you walk through the door, Morticia is ready to be your very best friend. Morticia is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $275.00. 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 COWBOY, pure sweetness on 4 legs. He's a gorgeous mixed breed boy with the sweetest face, about 2 years old and fully grown at 34 pounds. Our best guess on breed is beagle/Australian Shepherd plus who knows what else. We're basing that on appearance not personality, he's a fun, playful guy who loves attention, toys, zoomies and hanging out with his people. He loves a good game of fetch. Cowboy is housebroken and would be fine as an only dog or with a "roommate" dog, Cowboy isn't really interested in other dogs, he's all about the people. If you'd like to meet Cowboy, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Cowboy at our weekly adoption event, Saturday 11:30am-1:30pm at PetSmart Eastgate. Our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 21, 2026, 7:33 pm

Story
Monty is a great name for a great dog like me ;) I have the Monty Python kind of humor... goofy and sweet! But, don't mess with my crate! That really is my only "pet: peeve!! I was found on the streets 2 years ago and was adopted as a pup... however, I became the boss in the house and didn't like anyone entering the house that I didn't know :( SO..... Back to the rescue, because they won't give up on me!! So here I am and I have really adjusted to the environment and new people meeting me and treats and lots of love. AND the crew here basically has determined that I need a family/adopters that will be in charge of the house. Someone I can trust to protect me so I don't have to!! I am vocal in my crate, so my crate needs to be away from the common areas so I can relax and not meet everyone that stops by. Once I settle into my new home I will follow your lead! I am a gorgeous boy, with caramel and milk chocolate highlights in my soft fur. I want to please my family and go on all kinds of adventures! I am awesome out and about, meeting new people and new friends :D I hope you will look into my eyes, the windows to my soul, and see the HOPE I have to find my own home again! The rescue is great because I got a second chance, but I REALLY want a home!! Local adoption only $300 (in TX)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Elena Ann! Don't let her deafness fool you—Elena is a bright, beautiful Australian Shepherd with a zest for life! This happy, high-energy girl is everything you love about the breed: intelligent, playful, athletic, and always ready for her next adventure. Elena absolutely loves to play fetch, especially with frisbees, though she'll happily chase a ball now and then too. She's wonderful with other dogs, great with kids, and is both crate trained and housebroken. Because Elena is deaf, she's looking for a home that understands her unique needs. She must have another confident dog in the home to help provide routine and companionship. Having a canine buddy helps her navigate daily life and gives her confidence. She's also learned an impressive nighttime recall—simply blink a flashlight, and she'll happily come running inside! Elena is still learning how to walk on a leash and will need a family committed to continuing her training using positive reinforcement and visual cues. Like any Aussie, she'll thrive with plenty of exercise, mental enrichment, and a job to do. If you're looking for an incredibly smart, loving, and active companion who just experiences the world a little differently, Elena is ready to prove that being deaf doesn't slow her down one bit. She's waiting for the perfect family to give her the forever home she deserves. Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi there... I'm Dixie. I'm quite literally the best girl, according to the staff and volunteers here at the rescue. About me: I LOVE the water—I could swim all day! I'm fully potty and house trained, and I'll even let you know when I need to go outside by crying at the door. I walk nicely on a leash and absolutely love playing fetch (at least until my age catches up with me!). I get along wonderfully with other dogs, know my name, and have excellent recall. Here at the rescue, I even enjoy off-leash walks because I stay close and always come back when I'm called. I am a quiet, gentle soul looking for a forever home to call my own. While I may be a little older, I still enjoy playing with my toys and spending time with other dogs when the mood strikes. My journey here has been quite the adventure. During a big storm, the local fire department found me in the water and brought me to the rescue. They later realized they had actually been trying to catch me for months, believing I was a stray. But it turns out I wasn't always on my own. I once had a loving owner, but after he passed away, I was given away because his mother was no longer able to care for me due to her own health challenges. I'm already spayed, fully vaccinated, 4DX tested (positive for heartworm), and up to date on my ProHeart 12 and Bravecto. I am heartworm positive right now, but I’ve already started treatment. I’ve been on antibiotics and am going through the ProHeart 12 protocol approved by the American Heartworm Society. The good news is that with this treatment, I should test negative in about 8–10 months. My adoption fee is $250, and you can apply to adopt me at www.adoggie4you.org. I'm currently in Texas, but I can travel to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee. Due to state regulations, I cannot be transported to Rhode Island or Massachusetts.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 21, 2026, 4:09 pm

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Space is a 9 month old medium size dog. She loves other dogs and has done well with cats. Space needs a special adopter that will give her time to realize people aren’t so scary. She has made a TON of progress at her foster home but is still very timid at times. She gets SO excited to see you after work but still only wants to be pet on her own terms. She will do best in a home with no children, another dog to help build her confidence, and her own yard, as she is not leash trained. She is very fearful of the leash, leading us to believe she may have had a traumatic experience involving a leash before coming to HART. This dog absolutely loves to be comfy. All she wants is a comfortable bed or to curl up by your feet on the couch. If you’re looking for a playmate for your dog that does not beg for constant attention or a friend to keep your dog busy while you’re at work, Space could be a great choice for you. If interested in meeting Space please fill out an application at www.rescueahart.org!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
We adopted Oreo from the Sharonville SPCA seven years ago when she was two. Everyone who meets her says she is beautiful, but her calm, gentle nature is what truly makes her special. Oreo rarely barks; silence is her default state. She won't make a sound when guests arrive or ring the doorbell. The only time she raises her voice is late at night if she senses a potential intruder. When visitors come over, she politely sniffs them for a moment, then quietly returns to her spot. She gets along wonderfully with cats, dogs, children, and adults. Ever watchful, Oreo acts like a peacekeeper, keeping an eye on everyone to make sure no one gets too rowdy or naughty. When she needs to go outside to relieve herself, she communicates her needs clearly without making a fuss. Now nine years old, Oreo remains extremely healthy and doesn't need any medication. She is a loyal, quiet, and playful companion. She will tell u if she needs to go out for popo or pepe.Her face is excellent communicator...
