Meet leo

Meet our sweet little Leo 🦁 This little guy has such a joyful yet calm personality. He’s the kind of dog who simply wants to be near his people. Leo absolutely loves cuddles, leaning against you, and curling up in your arms, but he’s also wonderfully independent in his own quiet way. Sometimes he’ll happily tuck himself into a cozy corner, relax in his crate on his own, or nap peacefully by the window soaking up the warm sunshine. He’s doing great in the car, behaves very well inside a crate, and even sleeps through the entire night comfortably in his crate. Leo is currently potty training with consistency and patience. He may feel a little awkward with a leash at first, but if given enough time to adjust, he slowly starts moving more comfortably. He just needs someone patient who will let him build confidence at his own pace. And once he feels comfortable enough to come out of his shell, it becomes a whole different story! He lights up at the park, happily sniffing every little thing and exploring the world with so much curiosity and excitement. He’s mostly easygoing around other dogs and tends to keep to himself, preferring calm and mellow company just like him. One thing to note is that Leo can be a little sensitive around young children and may bark or react to them. He can also get vocal when he feels uncomfortable during things like taking medication, putting on a cone, or cleaning around his eyes. He does communicate his boundaries clearly and would do best with someone patient, gentle, and understanding. He’s truly such a sweet soul, equal parts cuddle buddy and peaceful little independent guy 🐾 Weight: 9-10 lbs
