In the shelter’s words

We take the dogs that are adopted down...so if a dog is on the website they are available. Obedience training is required for all our pups. Completion certificate for training needs to be emailed once complete. When applying pictures/videos of your fully enclosed fenced yard is needed. Whether it's breed specific for exercise or because they thoroughly enjoy sunbathing, chasing lizards, or even sniffing and rolling in freshly cut grass....a fenced yard is a mandatory requirement. All communication is through email only so please be patient with us. We are all volunteers and work full time jobs and have families of our own. The more complete the application the easier it is for us to process it. Please notify your vet that we will be contacting them and to release information to us. If you don't hear from us we have chosen a home better matched for the dog's needs. We apologize for not being able to answer everyone back. Please read the bio before sending questions - we answer all we know about the dog here. If the question is not answered in the bio please send emails to info@HeidisLegacyDogRescue.com Sydney: The Toy-Collector Pup with a Heart of Gold Hi there! I’m Sydney—a playful, loving, and ridiculously cute pup who’s ready to win your heart (and maybe your couch). Here’s a little peek into my world: - Toy Collector Extraordinaire: I’m obsessed with toys. I’ll bring them to you, carry them around like treasures, and proudly show off my collection at every chance I get. My toy box is my treasure chest, and I’m always on the hunt for the next squeaky treasure. Doggy Bestie Potential: I LOVE playing with other dogs! I can be a tiny bit shy at first, but I warm up quickly—especially with dogs my size or sturdy little pals who can keep up. Having another dog to show me the ropes and teach me manners would be a dream come true. - Adventure Buddy: I’m potty trained (I know the doggie door like a pro), walk nicely on a leash, and ride like a champ in the car. Let’s go explore new places together! - Excited Eater: Mealtime is the highlight of my day. I’ll do a happy little dance when it’s time to eat—get ready for some extra smiles and tail wags. Background and temperament: I was the runt of my litter, bottle-fed from a tiny 13 days old, and I’ve grown into a healthy, smart, and affectionate pup who’s ready to find my forever family. I’d thrive in a home with another playful pup, no cats (sorry, feline friends, it’s not you—it’s me), and maybe some kiddos who’d enjoy a goofy, loving playmate. Age and know-how: Born January 11, 2024, I’m still young and eager to learn all the good stuff you want to teach me. I even come with DNA results—check out my pics for the scoop! Foster or adopt: I’m looking for a Foster or Foster-to-Adopt home. If you’re ready for a funny, smart, toy-obsessed pup to brighten your days, I’m your girl! Let’s make some memories (and maybe a little mischief). Ready to start our adventure? Apply to foster or adopt me today and let’s make this the start of something amazing. Sydney's adoption fee is $400 - obedience training is required and fully enclosed front or backyard also required To apply to foster or adopt please fill out application at www.heidislegacydogrescue.com/apply-to-foster-or-adopt Some tips to navigate the application online.
