Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, I’m Leon! I’m a 3.5 year old Shar Pei Pit Mix who LOVES people and play-time. I’ll take belly rubs for days and I’m great around new people.
I also adore toys! I carry my squirrel with me everywhere I go. I’ll bring it over to you when I want to play keep-away or tug of war (I’m gentle but strong!). As long as I’ve got a durable chew toy nearby I’m pretty good at entertaining myself, too. Occasionally, I need a reminder of what’s a toy and what’s not, but help me decipher between them and I learn fast!
I’m crate-trained, house-trained and great with a doggy door. I know sit, shake, lay, and I’ve been taught to stay off the bed (unless of course you want me up there… I’ll happily cuddle up next to you all night).
I’m great on car rides and love going for walks, though I’m still learning this whole leash thing. I get a little distracted by all the birds and new smells (who doesn’t?), but I’m getting much better at it with time.
If you’re introducing another pet, be cautious – I can get defensive over my space. My fosters have the feeling I really just want to play and that with the right training, I’ll be fine. I’ve had a few short, on-leash introductions, but you can tell I’m not totally comfortable yet, so a household without cats, dogs or other small pets would be best for me.
I have been fully vetted, vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. I have checked out super healthy! Like most of my kind, I do have some skin allergies that may need occasional medical attention. Just take me in for regular vet visits and they should be able to give me the care I need.
