Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Leo's family was going to have to surrender him to a shelter because they have way too much going on in the home with a special needs child and have neglected Leo. A neighbor stepped in willing to foster and find Leo the forever loving home he deserves. Leo is a GREAT boy as he is leash-trained, knows basic commands and words, such as "sit," "stay," "walk, "and, "treat." He is very playful and affectionate, and loves to snuggle and be carried around like a human baby. He is crate-trained, housebroken, and will signal with an overall restlessness when he needs to go out for a potty break. Leo is not excessively vocal, although he will bark when appropriate. He is great with kids and women, but he is a bit shy around men at first. It takes Leo a few minutes to become accustomed to big dogs, although he warms up to small ones immediately. He is initially terrified of cats, but after awhile, he simply learns to give them a wide berth. Leo is used to playing dress-up, and he has no problem running around in the most ridiculous of outfits, including hats! He loves chew toys and treats, especially peanut butter and whipped cream.
