Meet the Dogs

On Christmas Eve, Lionel's Legacy received a very panicked phone call from a family impacted by the Southern California fires. Their dog Manny, an 11-year-old standard poodle, fell ill with some type of respiratory illness. He was coughing and wheezing uncontrollably.

 Abraham came to the Humane Society of Charlotte from Puerto Rico during "Operation Grey Muzzle," a rescue transport coordinated by the Humane Society of the United States. 

This eight-year-old girl has been through some stuff. Rita Sue was transferred to the Leon County Humane Society (LCHS) in Tallahassee, FL, after she was rescued from an organized dog fight ring last year.

The SAFE Center at Fort Valley State University (FVSU) in Georgia is housed within the University's Veterinary Technology Program (the only four-year program in the state).

Originally transferred to The Humane Society of Indianapolis from a municipal shelter in Central Indiana, eight-year-old Archie was missing one eye, had some skin and allergy issues, hair loss and red patches on his back.

Blanca is a nine-year-old adorable Maltese mix who served as the pilot dog for Young at Heart's Club Grand Paw program and successfully found a loving home with an 88 year old gentleman named Ray.  

Meadows was transferred to the Animal Rescue League of Iowa (ARL) prior to Hurricane Harvey making landfall, along with several other dogs to make room for those displaced during the disaster. 

Meet Kelly, a 14-year-old Yorkie mix that was found as a stray on the streets of Brooklyn by the Animal Care Center (ACC). Kelly was a high risk for euthanasia because of her age and advanced medical problems. 

Spangle is a Super Senior that was a little down on his luck until he was sprung from the shelter by Peak Lab Rescue. He was an owner surrender at 12-years-old and the shelter was not a good place for him to be. Peak Lab Rescue got him settled into a foster home right away!

Carole King was rescued by Badass Brooklyn Animal Rescue from a high-kill shelter in Georgia. From the minute they met her, they knew she was a special, older lady, and she needed someone to take the time to get to know her. Carole King was heartworm positive and her eyes were a mess. But Badass was not deterred by her medical needs, thanks to a grant from The Grey Muzzle Organization.
