My story

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

Lenny is a 9-month-old male Catahoula Leopard Dog/Labrador Retriever mix with the softest, most beautiful brindle coat you’ve ever seen. He came to us from a high-kill shelter in Texas, where his time was nearly up. The small scars on his face hint at a rough start, but those days are far behind him—now Lenny is thriving, joyful, and ready for his forever family.

Lenny is the definition of a happy-go-lucky pup. He greets every person and every new situation with a wagging tail, and he’s never met a stranger—human or canine. He loves to play with people but really lights up when he’s romping around with other dogs; he hasn’t met a dog yet he couldn’t turn into a playmate.

After a fun-filled day, Lenny is perfectly content to curl up on the softest blanket he can find and snooze peacefully until he hears someone else wake up. He’s fully crate-trained and potty-trained, and although he’s a big boy, he’s still very much a puppy. He’s working on his basic manners—especially not jumping or mouthing—but he’s incredibly food-motivated and learns quickly.

Lenny would thrive in just about any loving home looking for a cheerful, affectionate companion. He’s ready to experience all the good things life has to offer—he just needs someone to show him the way.

If you’re looking for a sweet, spirited, loyal young dog to brighten your world, Lenny is your boy.
