Rhodesian Ridgeback and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Blade!
Blade is a 1-year-old Male Rhodesian Ridgeback mix.

This animal is scheduled to arrive on transport to the NYC/NJ area on 5/16 and is in need of a foster home upon arrival.

We partner with overcrowded shelters across the country to bring animals into foster homes in the Northeast, where they can decompress and find their forever families.

What does it mean to foster?
The most important responsibility is providing a safe, loving home. We'll guide you through everything you need to know, including quarantine, basic care, and safety protocols. Our Foster Handbook and dedicated mentors are there to support you every step of the way.

What do you need?
Depending on the animal, you may need supplies like a crate, puppy pads, or food and water bowls-but don't worry, we have a large foster network that helps share resources! Louie's Legacy covers all approved medical care, including vetting and spay/neuter.

By fostering, YOU are making a difference. Every foster opens the door to saving another life.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The Rhodesian Ridgeback, originally from Southern Africa, is a breed known for its distinctive ridge of hair along its back that grows in the opposite direction of the rest of its coat. This intelligent and loyal dog is a versatile hunter, originally bred to track and contain lions. With a strong and muscular build, the Rhodesian Ridgeback is also a loving and devoted family companion, displaying affection and protectiveness towards its loved ones.
