My story

We take the dogs that are adopted down...so if a dog is on the website they are available. Obedience training and fully fenced in yard is required for all our pups.   Completion certificate for training needs to be emailed once complete.  When applying pictures/videos of your fully enclosed yard is needed. Please only send inquiries to the email in this bio all others will not be answered. 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 Madison is a sweet, very loving pooch who just wants to be by your side. Her birthday is 1/11/2024. She is a sensitive girl who needs a moment to learn that you’re a friend. But once she is in a home and she feels safe her personality will blossom, and she will show you what a loving companion she can be. Madi will show you how much you mean to her by bringing you her favorite toy every time she sees you. She is very playful and energetic and extremely intelligent. She has already mastered “sit” “down” “let go” “leave it” and few other commands. When she plays Madi can sometimes get a little overexcited and forget about personal space. That is why she would do her best to join a home with kids over the age of 10. Madison does have a lot of energy that she needs to let out. She would need a family that is active. She would make a great running buddy! She loves to be outside and loves to go hiking. She is good with other dogs and would do great with a dog that has the same energy level as her. Madi doesn’t like the crate but have no fear she is fully house trained. If you are looking for a dog you can take of any adventure with you, that is super smart, is eager to please and is EXTREMELY loyal… Madison is your girl! My back story is below... A citizen who needed some help with six 13 DAY old puppies reached out to Heidi's Legacy. We stepped up...mom was no longer feeding them, and the citizen was not equipped to handle. 3 boys & 3 girls. The puppies were born January 11, 2024. DNA results are in from Embark. Check out the photos for results. Madison's adoption fee is $500 - 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 Thank you for completing the application. We are all volunteers and short on time, we will contact you back only if we have more questions or your application is approved and you will be invited to meet the dog. We apologize for not being able to answer everyone back. For more information contact info@HeidisLegacyDogRescue.com DOGS are in Foster Homes. There is NO shelter. **Our companions MUST live in your home as part of your family.**We do not transport. **See our website for more information. www.HeidisLegacyDogRescue.com All communication is thru 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. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1.
