Adopt a Rescue Dog in New York

Addicus’ Legacy Dog Rescue brings rescue dogs from Texas and Mexico directly to Long Island, making them available to adopters throughout New York and the greater metro area. Our West Islip transport stop in Suffolk County puts a loving rescue dog within reach of Long Island families, and many of our adopters in the broader New York area make the drive to find the right match. Every dog in our program has lived in a real home with a real family — so when you meet them, you’re already choosing with confidence.

How Transport Works

We transport to the West Islip, NY area on Long Island (Suffolk County), serving adopters throughout Long Island and the greater New York region. Exact pickup location and transport schedule are arranged during the adoption intake process. Contact us to learn about the next available transport date to your area.

About Addicus’ Legacy Dog Rescue

Addicus’ Legacy Dog Rescue is a 100% volunteer-run, foster-based nonprofit that saves dogs from high-kill shelters in Texas and Mexico. Every dog in our program lives in a loving foster home — not a kennel — while they wait for their forever family. Our fosters give us a real picture of each dog’s personality, energy level, and the home that will suit them best. We coordinate transport runs to cities across the eastern United States and Texas.
