Nya has a great balance of energy and downtime. She enjoys daily walks, sniffing around the neighborhood, chasing balls, and working on training, but she is also perfectly happy to nap while you work and curl up on the couch afterward. She is potty trained, has done well loose in the home, and knows several commands including sit, stay, down, shake, and place.

At home, Nya is an affectionate shadow with a silly streak. She loves treats, squeaky toys, cuddling, and keeping watch out the window for anything worth reporting. She is also an adventurous explorer, so a securely fenced yard is important, and small critters like squirrels, rabbits, and cats are definitely tempting. If you are looking for a sweet, playful dog who can join you for adventures and then happily settle in for a lazy evening, Nya may be your perfect match.

Despite her history, Delaney is a happy affectionate dog that loves people, sometimes more than food! She is great with kids too. She lovings giving and getting love. She greets strangers with enthusiasm.

She takes treats gently and knows how to 'Sit'.

She is good with dogs of all sizes and even cats.

Sometimes Delaney needs some encouragement to come inside, but once you give her a little sweet talking she comes in with a tail wag and smile. When she gets overwhelmed she finds a little corner to tuck into but won't stay there for long.

She is great on a leash, does well with new people, kids and dogs she meets while out. She did really well at a brewery for our adoption event.

Delaney needs a little encouragement to load up into a car but then rides well, after realizing you don't need her help driving.

She is house trained and has a medium energy level.

Delaney is spayed. Her adoption fee is $250. She is currently in a foster home in Dallas / Ft Worth area of Texas. We do adopt out of state and can help arrange transport, adopters will be responsible for transportation costs.

Duke has some challenges with other dogs and resource guards his food, toys, bed, and people's attention. He also jumps and nips when excited. We recommend a home with adults or older children, preferably as the only dog. He may also be adopted with his best friend Holly by experienced owners prepared to manage their resource guarding.

Duke is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and has received 12-month heartworm prevention.

Please apply online if you'd like to learn more about Duke:

Holly will need a patient family willing to give her time to build trust and confidence. She hasn't mastered basic commands yet, and training has been a challenge as she learns to feel comfortable with her people. She'll need understanding, consistency, and time to come out of her shell. She does well with children, but older kids are preferred because she can be skittish.

Holly is crate trained, spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and has received 12-month heartworm prevention.

If you'd like to meet Holly, please submit an adoption application online!

A vet has confirmed Lilly has had multiple litters of puppies in the past. We also believe she was abused at some point as she is very sensitive to pressure on her neck/collar and starts to panic. She has some scarring on her nose and legs, either from abuse or her time on the streets.

Now safe in her foster home, she has been the sweetest, calmest, most amazing dog.

She absolutely adores children and follows the 8yr boy around the house, he is her favorite. She has a very calm relaxed demeanor, low energy. She can be shy with adult strangers but once she realizes they are kind, she has loved everyone she's met. She does enjoy snuggling and will rest in your lap.

Lilly was reserved at first, but now thats she's getting more comfortable she has been more playful and even got the zoomies. She enjoys putting her feet in the pool.

She has been great with all dogs. Lilly will need another dog in her forever home, as she bonds strongly with dogs. (If you don't have one, you can also adopt Delaney, who she was found with)

Regarding cats, she has gotten better and now gets along well with cats on her foster home's property but is not a fan of strange cats. She does well with livestock too but is ready for the inside life.

She is mostly house trained, we think she will have it down by time she is adopted. We do not walk her on leash, as she is sensitive to pressure on the collar - she becomes scared and wants to get away. Fencing in her home will need to be secure as she can be a runner. She overall doesn't bark but when she does its justified.

Lilly has been through a lot in her life, she deserves the best. Her adopters will need to have some patience at first but she warms up quickly and will love you with all her heart.

Lilly is now spayed. Her adoption fee is $250. She is in a foster home in DFW area of Texas. We do adopt out of state and can recommend transport organizations.

Apply to meet and adopt Lilly at www.spinrescue.org

His $125 adoption fee includes neuter, microchip, rabies, DAPPV, Bordetella, heartworm testing, and dewormer. His neuter is scheduled for 11/04/26, and this date is nonnegotiable. Ready to give this big, handsome boy the forever home he deserves? Apply to adopt Bixby!

A home with a securely fenced yard would be the best fit, giving Wilson room to enjoy being a dog while keeping everyday leash pressure low as he learns.

Wilson is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and heart worm negative. All he's missing is a family to call his own.

If you have a little patience, a yard, and room in your heart for a sweet boy finding his courage, Wilson would love to meet you.

Bailey tolerates female dogs and will play well but he takes some time to warm up. Slow introductions are best. He has not done well with male dogs in the past, especially if they are not neutered. He has some leash reactivity to dogs while on walks.

He is indifferent to the neighborhood cats.

Overall he is a calm and lazy guy. Enjoys the occasional tug of war game with a rope toy. He is great about reading the room and matching your mood.

Bailey LOVES car rides and getting a pup cup at Starbucks. He even did great on a boat outing! He also does well at the groomers.

He is smart and has quickly picked up commands such as 'Sit', 'Stay', and 'Lay Down'. He's mastered the Pyr Paw and if that doesn't work, he will use his nose to lift your hand.

Like a typical Pyrenees, he does bark when people or dogs walk by the house. He is house trained, but has marked the house when anxious in the past.

Bailey is a loveable dog that just wants to be loved in return.

He is neutered and up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is $250. Currently he is in a foster home in DFW area of Texas. We are happy to work with out of state adopters if they arrange their own transport.

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.

Fletcher is potty trained, crate trained, leash trained, and great with both dogs and kids. He loves people and wants to be wherever his family is. He is always up for a walk, a game of ball, or some backyard zoomies, but he also knows how to settle down and enjoy a good nap or cuddle session. His favorite things include treats, chew toys, antlers, and especially stuffed toys, which he loves to carry around and snuggle with.

His perfect day starts with a morning walk and breakfast, followed by some serious nap time. He is happy to head outside around lunch, enjoys a bigger afternoon walk, and then settles in for dinner and more snuggles before sleeping in his crate at night. Fletcher is not over-the-top high energy, but he definitely has a silly side and can get wonderfully goofy when playtime starts.

More than anything, Fletcher is just a genuinely sweet dog. He has done beautifully with every person and dog he has met and bonds closely with his people. If you are looking for a loyal companion who can make you laugh, join you on adventures, and then curl up beside you at the end of the day, Fletcher may be your guy.

New places still make her a little nervous but she's getting better every day - she just needs a few minutes to feel safe when she encounters new things/places. She most likely wasn't exposed to much and never walked on a leash prior to landing at the shelter.

Feyre is super smart and learning new things every day. She can't wait to find a family and would LOVE to have a doggie friend that likes to run and play.

Feyre is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $275 and you can apply for her here if you're interested in learning more: Adoption Application - Legacy Humane Society

This sweet girl is good with children of all ages, house trained, and crate trained. She has had no behavioral issues reported by her foster and has not shown any interest in escaping the yard.

Hatti loves to play, but she loves to snuggle just as much. She can be a little sassy without being overly talkative, and her happy, bouncy personality makes her a wonderful companion. After some playtime, she’s perfectly content to curl up beside you and relax.

If you’re looking for a loving, easygoing girl who can keep up for playtime and then settle in for cuddles, Hatti may be your perfect match.

Onyx is crate trained, potty trained, leash trained, and does well with kids, cats, and other dogs. 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.

At home, Cooper loves pets, attention and simply laying next to his people. He has a moderate energy level, so he enjoys getting outside to explore and play but is equally happy settling in for some downtime afterward. He's treat-motivated, enjoys toys and is already potty and leash trained.

Cooper has also done well around other dogs with appropriate supervision. He is currently intact, so some of his behaviors around other dogs may change once he is neutered. His foster has noticed that Cooper can become fearful if voices are raised or hands are lifted

Obi is very smart and loves to work for treats, and has picked up on tricks very quickly. He has also learned to open gates and doors, so may need to add a carabiner to your yard gates.

He really enjoys tug-of-war, wrestling, and fetch competitions with dogs, following it up with laying together on the couch for a nap.

While he is amazing with the dominate medium sized female, he has showed some food aggression towards the large submissive but protective male dog in his foster home. Obi is currently underweight, so with time he may not be insecure around food with other large male dogs. He is great with both dogs when no food is involved!

Obi is potty trained, crate trained, does well in the car, and is great on the leash but will pull some. He loves walks and hikes.

Obi is a street dog turned lap dog, he would be a great addition to many homes!

He is currently neutered and up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is $250. Currently located in DFW area Texas, out of state adopters are responsible for arranging their own transport but we are happy to recommend transport companies.

He does well with the big and small dogs in his foster home. He has medium energy and will play hard for a short time and follow it with a very long nap. He is also happy to chew a bone or play with toys by himself. His forever family will need to have another dog in the home to play and teach manners.

He has not been around cats, but he has seen rabbits, squirrels and ducks daily and he tries to be friends with them.

He is playful and loves toys. He also loves counter surfing, shoes, and toilet paper like a classic puppy. He is still growing up and learning about the world.

Max is potty trained, leash trained, and knows basic commands. He does well in his crate but prefers sleeping on cold stone floors. He loves going in the car.

Max and his littermates were rescued at 10 weeks old. Day one in SPIN Rescue care we witnessed him have a seizure. Max was then hospitalized for 2 days to determine the cause as he continued to have seizures. All tests came back normal but he was started on phenobarbital with success. Since being discharged, Max has been seizure-free for the last 4 months and, although he has since gained 50lbs, we have kept him on the same dose - we are weaning him off medication as he grows. The plan is to stop in two months if he continues to remain seizure free. He happily takes his medication.

His littermate had a DNA test done revealing they are 80% Great Pyrenees, 8% Husky, 8% German Shepherd, and 4% mix. He is going to be very large.

Max is neutered and up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is $300. He is currently in a SPIN foster home in Dallas, Texas. Out of state applications will need to arrange transport, we are happy to reocmmend companies.

Cisco is house trained. Loves going on walks. Cars are still new for him and isn't a fan of getting in but does well once he's in there.

He doesnt bark very much, instead of barking at strange noises he will hide. He is crate trained and uses his crate as a safe space.

From feral stray to happy family dog, Cisco is wonderful, loyal, loving, and deserves the best. He is ready for a forever family to continue showing him love and helping him learn the world is a safe place.

He is goofy and loves playing with ice cubes.

He does well when left home alone but does try to get on the bed so keep doors closed if you don't want him too. He is easily redirected with treats and is quickly picking up on house manners, like not to counter surf for burger buns or drink from his foster mom's water cup. To his credit, Bernie is very tall and many items are at his eye level.

He hops right up into the car and loves going on adventures or walks with you.

Bernie is a big lover ready for a family to love forever.

He is neutered and vaccinated. His adoption fee is $250. Currently he is in a foster home in Dallas, Texas. Out of state adopters will need to arrange their own transport.
