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 infoHeidisLegacyDogRescue Meet Ryder & Ryver – The Dynamic Duo You Didn’t Know You Needed! Some pairs are just meant to be—like peanut butter and jelly, movies and popcorn, or in this case, Ryder and Ryver! These two adorable sidekicks are on the hunt for a foster (or forever) home where they can continue being their lovable, quirky selves. Ryder – The Little Guy with a Big Personality Ryder may be small, but he’s got enough charm to fill a whole house! Since being fixed, his bark has dialed down significantly, though he still likes to make sure you know he’s around. He’s the ultimate cuddle connoisseur, happiest when he’s snuggled in your arms or stretched out beside you in the grass, soaking up the sun. He’s also got a signature move—spinning in a circle before he poops (because why not add a little flair to the routine?). This little guy is a pro at crate training, sleeping through the night like a champ and happily trotting inside when there’s a treat involved. He enjoys walks, though he prefers a confident buddy leading the way. Ryder is great with other small dogs, does well with kids, and even coexists with cats—though he sometimes can’t resist a little chase. While he's still fine-tuning his potty-training skills, he’s come a long way and is making steady progress. Mealtime is serious business for Ryder, so he feels safest eating in his crate (sharing with Ryver? Not happening!). He can also get a bit impatient when food is on the horizon—he’s basically a tiny, furry alarm clock when dinner is being prepared. But honestly, who doesn’t get a little dramatic when they’re hungry? Ryver – The Sweet & Shy Soul If Ryder is the spark, Ryver is the calm, steady glow. She’s a little more reserved when meeting new people, but once she trusts you, she’s all in. She enjoys lounging outside with her favorite humans, curling up on the couch, and sticking close to your feet while you work or relax. Ryver is also crate trained and knows the drill when treats are involved—she’ll trot right in like a pro. She loves a good walk but is on the shy side, so she’ll need a harness to help her feel secure. Loud noises or busy streets aren’t really her thing, so peaceful strolls in quieter areas are best. She and Ryder make the perfect playmates, entertaining each other with backyard zoomies and playful antics. While she’s a little more hesitant at first, she’s a total sweetheart who thrives in a loving, patient environment. The Perfect Home? This adorable pair would do best in a home with a fenced backyard where they can romp and relax. Apartment life isn’t ideal for them—Ryder’s bark is much better since he was fixed, but he still has opinions to share now and then. They’re great with other small dogs, and while Ryder has a curious streak when it comes to cats, he mostly minds his own business. Both are fixed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated, just waiting for a home to call their own. If you’re ready for double the love, double the fun, and two loyal companions who will keep you endlessly entertained, apply to foster or adopt today! Bonded Pair Ryker & Ryver's adoption fee is $600 - obedience training is required after adoption and fully enclosed front or backyard is also required.

Request to Add a New Breed

If you're looking to adopt a dog and don't know where to start, puppyfinder.com is an excellent source for information about adopting a dog and will connect you with hundreds of shelters across the US that have adoptable puppies and older dogs waiting for forever homes.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
