After the fun is over, Winky is more than happy to curl up on the couch with her people. She is equal parts cuddler and loyal shadow, and she has even been known to sleep so deeply that she rolls right off the couch!

Winky can be a little nervous in unfamiliar or overwhelming environments, so she'll do best with a family willing to give her time to settle in and build confidence. In return, you'll get a goofy, affectionate adventure buddy who is always ready to play, explore, and snuggle.

This clever girl is house trained and crate trained. She’s surprisingly calm for a puppy, but she still loves to play, whether she’s entertaining herself, romping with another dog, or engaging with her people. Livvy is adventurous, athletic, playful, talkative, and wonderfully goofy. She’s also very smart and food-motivated, which should make training lots of fun.

Livvy absolutely loves to snuggle and will happily curl up with her favorite people after playtime. She has a sweet, affectionate nature with an independent little streak that gives her plenty of personality.

Livvy is currently working on feeling comfortable around her food bowl. She may growl when someone approaches while she’s eating, but she allows her foster family to touch the bowl and has not tried to bite. Her foster is working with her on this behavior, and she has no issues with treats or toys. Her future family should continue using patient, positive training and give her space while she eats.

Livvy Lulu hasn’t shown any interest in escaping the yard, but she’ll still need normal supervision and a secure outdoor area. With her loving personality, puppy silliness, and cuddly nature, Livvy is ready to find a family who will help her continue to thrive.

If you’re looking for a sweet, smart, snuggly puppy with a goofy side and lots of love to give, Livvy Lulu may be your perfect match.

Phoenix is around 14 to 15 weeks old. He’s had two rounds of shots dewormed several times has been being kept in Foster as an indoor family pet where he’s also become crate trained and 90% housebroken.

Phoenix is really playful. He has an above average energy level - it’s normal for a puppy. It’s just seven or eight out of 10. Phoenix absolutely loves playing with his little brother and the big Foster dogs that he’s been staying with!

Phoenix is smart and eager to please; he’s just learning some commands and all about fetch and retrieve.

Phoenix is also a cuddler; he’s still young enough of a puppy where he runs around for 15 or 20 minutes then he’s wiped out for a few hours for a good nap and there’s nothing he loves more than hanging with his humans!

Beautiful Phoenix will be at DASH in Dallas this weekend. We are hoping to find the right family for him for this Halloween and daylight savings weekend!
It will be darker. It will be colder. What could be better than a puppy to warm up you and your family!

Ideally, he would go to a home with another young, active playful dog he, he’s a great playmate and Canine Companion

Petey has a nice balance of playful energy and calm downtime. He enjoys gentle wrestling, chasing around the yard, going for walks, chewing on bones or toys, and joining in whenever another dog wants to play. Once the fun is over, he settles easily and is perfectly happy lounging on his mat as long as his family is nearby. He is inquisitive, loves a new adventure, and seems to feel most secure when he knows he is part of the action.

Petey's story has had some unexpected turns. He was once scheduled for euthanasia at Dallas Animal Services before being adopted, but when his previous owner later lost his housing and could no longer care for him, Petey once again found himself needing a safe place to land. Through it all, he has remained an incredibly gentle, loving dog who bonds easily with both people and other pets.

His ideal home would include plenty of companionship, room to play, regular walks, lots of snuggle time, and possibly another dog or two to share life with. If you are looking for a sweet, social dog who wants nothing more than to love his family and be included in everything, Petey may be your perfect match.

He enjoys playing ball, running outside, and chasing around with canine friends, but he also appreciates plenty of downtime. He is very intelligent, curious, and deeply connected to his people. His foster describes him as a gentle giant who loves to keep watch over the home and will happily alert you when someone comes to the door.

More than anything, Onyx is a devoted companion. He loves being near his humans, has stayed close during difficult moments, and truly seems to take his role as protector seriously. He is also quite the talker and is not shy about joining the conversation. If you are looking for a loyal, playful, affectionate dog who will stick close by your side, Onyx may be your guy.

MEET KATIE A Loving Australian Shepherd and Cattle Dog Mix
Katie is a 4-year-old Australian Shepherd–Australian Cattle Dog mix who has been patiently waiting for her person, couple, or family to find her. She has watched so many of the dogs in her shelter-foster home come and go, and EVERYONE on staff—from volunteers to animal control officers, vet techs, and fosters—agrees. It’s absolutely time for Katie to have a family to love her!
Katie is the perfect medium-sized combination of two wonderful breeds, weighing just 45 pounds fully grown.
Katie is very mellow once she settles in. When she first comes out of her kennel, she may run off a few initial zoomies, but after that, she is content to relax and play with her toys. And Katie absolutely LOVES toys! Stuffed toys, hard chews, squeaky toys, crinkle toys—she enjoys them all!
More About Katie
* Mellow and affectionate: Katie settles in nicely and enjoys spending time with her people.* A toy lover: She is happy to play with just about any kind of toy.* Great with dogs: Katie enjoys having canine friends.* Respectful of cats: She has lived appropriately around cats.* Wonderful on leash: Volunteers say she walks beautifully.* Gentle with treats: Katie takes treats politely.* Excellent kennel manners: She rarely has an accident in her kennel.* Communicative: When she is in the office, she vocalizes to let staff know when she needs to go outside.
The Animal Control Officers say Katie is one of their favorites and that she is the whole package! She is a special girl with so much love and companionship to offer.
Katie will need a thoughtful and patient adopter who understands the importance of decompression, including the 3-3-3 rule. She is very responsive to the energy level of her people and often uses body language to communicate.
Katie has shown herself to be great with dogs, respectful of cats, and a wonderful companion once she has settled in and become comfortable in her new environment.
Could Katie Be Your Girl?
Katie has spent far too long waiting for someone to see what a wonderful dog she is. She would love a home where she can enjoy her toys, relax with her people, go for walks, and continue building confidence at her own pace.
If you are looking for a mellow, playful, dog-friendly companion with excellent manners and a HUGE love of toys, Katie may be the perfect match for you!

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.

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.

He is very good about letting his foster mom know when he has to go out.Moose is a typical, laid-back Great Dane, gentle giant, and total love bug. He would be a greataddition to any kind of home, and if you would love to give a senior boy a great forever homeMoose could be the boy for you.He is fully vetted - neutered, current with vaccines, microchipped, and has been treated forheartworms. He is on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

Bree is cat-friendly and loves all dogs. She could also be happy as an only dog, as long as she receives regular opportunities for safe socialization and canine companionship. She hasn’t been around children yet, so any introductions should be thoughtful and supervised.

Bree is potty trained but is not yet crate trained. She hasn’t shown any interest in escaping the yard and is ready to keep learning the routines and skills that will help her grow into a confident companion.

If you’re looking for a smart, playful puppy and are ready to help a shy little girl discover how wonderful the world can be, Bree may be the perfect match.
