Here's what the humans have to say about me:
***Leo is a courtesy listing for Midwest Rescue*** http://www.midwestrescue.org/index.cfm?page=profile&dogId=44
Leo is a sleek, athletic, two year old Pitbull/something (Basenji? Ridgeback?) mix who was grabbed off of doggie death row not a moment too soon! This compact little dude (about 40-45 lbs.) is full of puppy love, enthusiasm, and energy. He is playful and good with other dogs when properly introduced. (He is great buds with the other pup in his foster home.) Bonus: he is also happy to entertain himself with a ball or toy when his people are busy.
Leo is extremely sweet and eager to please...he just wants to love you. And talk about "Hugabull", this little man is it! He wraps his arms around your neck, snuggles close to your body and gives hugs and kisses. He knows his basic obedience and is fully housebroken. He is neutered and up-to-date on all his shots.
From what we see, Leo would make a terrific agility dog or jogging partner. You should see him try to play frisbee: he hasn't quite got the timing down yet, but he loves the flashy jumps and flips (Hey, Leo, you're supposed to catch it)!
