My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

LEO CAME TO RESCUE WITH HIS BROTHER (WHO HAS BEEN ADOPTED). THEIR OWNER TOOK BOTH PUPS TO THE SHELTER WHEN THEY WERE ABOUT 5 OR 6 MONTHS OF AGE. LEO LOVES PLAYING WITH OTHER DOGS AND IS VERY ACTIVE. HE PROBABLY WOULD NOT DO WELL AROUND CHILDREN BUT HE IS A SMART YOUNG BOY WHO LEARNS QUICKLY. THE SHELTER LSTED HIM AS A RHODESIAN RIDGEBACK BUT AFTER MEETING HIM, THEY WERE PARTIALLY CORRECT AND HE HAS BLACK MOUTH CUR QUALITIES AND MAYBE A RIDGEBACK GRANDPARENT. HE WOULD BE A FABULOUS HIKING AND/OR TRAIL COMPANION BUT HE DOES NEED TO GO TO SCHOOL!
