Rescued is our favorite breed
Foster Sancho - Senior Dog Rescue

We may not have loved you first, but we will love you forever!

There are many reasons why senior dogs end up homeless at shelters. Sometimes owners are unable to afford medical care for their pets, or they are struggling to care for themselves and their canine companions. Here at Lionel’s Legacy, a Senior Dog Rescue, we aim to help aging beloved pets stay with their families through our Keeping Pets Home Program or join one of our amazing foster families where we commit to them for life!

Success Story

Beasley

Beasley was in rough shape when he joined us. He needed a lot of medical care, and thanks to time, love, and patience Beasley grew some confidence wings and was able to join a new family. It’s great to have families who really want to help make a difference for the ones that need it most! We’re so lucky to have families taking on foster dogs who need TLC the most.

Foster A Pet

If you can't adopt, you can foster

Occasionally, some of our senior sweethearts come to Lionel’s Legacy with terminal illnesses or develop age-related medical conditions while in our care. For these seniors, our foster families commit to a lifetime of love and care no matter how long they have left.

Lionel’s Legacy will continue to provide food, supplies, and medical for each senior dog while the furever foster families dedicate their lives to helping our senior sweethearts feel like a member of the family.

It takes a team to care for our senior pets, whether it’s lab work, teeth cleaning, medications, or food. We want to make sure our seniors are treated and cared for before sending them off to their new forever families.

Help us reach our goal of helping homeless senior dogs!
