Pure Perfection: Meet Leo — The Sweet, Mellow Gentleman Pomeranian!

Leo is an 8-year-old, 7-pound Pomeranian with a big heart and an even bigger personality. Rescued from a freezing parking lot in Lake Station, Indiana, Leo has blossomed in foster care — and according to his foster, he’s pure perfection.

With great vet care, good nutrition, and lots of love, Leo has made a beautiful recovery. His coat is coming in nicely (we’re still managing a few thinning spots), and his adorable build gives him the look of a fluff ball on chicken legs. Leo previously had a grade 3 luxating patella on his left rear leg, but he has since had successful surgery and is doing wonderfully.

What makes Leo so special:

- 100% housebroken: He vocalizes when he needs to go out — no pee pads needed.
- Yard cruiser: A fenced yard is required so he can safely explore his favorite pastime.
- Co-exists well with calm dogs: Leo doesn’t engage with other dogs — he truly doesn’t care — and has been peacefully coexisting with his foster’s dogs. He gives a quiet growl if another dog gets too close to his face, so a home with small or calm, respectful dogs could work.
- Cuddle bug: Loves being held and being close to his person.
- Mellow & gentle: Best suited for a calm home without small children (14+).
- Routine lover: Predictability helps him feel secure and relaxed.

Leo can be nervous with grooming or vet handling, so he does best when muzzled for vet visits or medical care. With patient, gentle handling — and his safety gear in place — he does wonderfully and recovers quickly from stress. In everyday life, he’s loyal, easygoing, and incredibly sweet.

Leo is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, and heartworm-negative.

If you’re looking for a tiny, loving companion who enjoys peaceful yard time and cozy cuddles afterward, Leo may be your perfect match.
