Feb 24: Leroy is doing great. He is now 2 years old and 15 lbs. He is crate trained and sleeps in crate at night (still not house trained at night). Leroy is a resource guarder with dogs. He gets protective of his toys when he has them in his mouth and gets fed away from the eyes of the other dogs. He does NOT resource guard with humans (small children not recommended till they are old enough to leave his stuff alone). If you remove the stuffies and high value bones, he does great with the dog group. He plays and follows his nose throughout the whole yard.
If you have experience with resource guarding he will do fine with other pets. If you have no experience, then he should be an only dog. He loves to be petted and hang out in a dog bed. He does need secure fencing, his nose will get him in trouble. He also sings the song of his people...lol
May 23: Leroy Jenkins (nod to video games!) was found as a stray and pulled from Animal Friends (Butler County Ohio). He was suffering from kennel cough and got double pneumonia and had to be hospitalized for 3 days.
He is approximately 1 to 2 years old and 14 lbs. He is a small Beagle. He is on the timid side but learning to trust. He plays with the other dogs and loves toys. He has the typical beagle bray when he spots something.
He is crate trained (not fond of it) and is not house trained. He does wear a belly band in the house when he is outside of his crate.
He does need a SECURE PHYSICAL FENCED yard; the nose will lead him away from the yard. He is very food motivated (like many beagles are) and eats separately in his crate.
Freds Mission Rescue has an adoption radius of 100 miles from Cincinnati. All dogs are fully vetted, altered, current on flea/tick/heartworm/wormer, and microchipped. The rescue does not adopt out to properties with invisible fences or tie outs.
