About Leonardo
Open to meet kids of all ages
Only dog in the home
Toilet Trained
He loves toys!
If you've ever wanted a dog that rivals the artistic genius of Leonardo Da Vinci, the charismatic acting prowess of Leonardo DiCaprio and the sheer cool factor of Leonardo the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle...
...Then let me introduce you to Leonardo the American Staffy!
Much like one of his namesakes of the Italian Renaissance our Leo is a true work of art, he's handsome, expressive and comes with a true unquenchable curiosity and multifaceted genius (he has conquered many a trick).
Like most geniuses Leo is a solitary creature, this Leading Man prefers not to share his stage with other animals, preferring his human's companions with whom he will love with his entire being.
He will lean into you like you are the only thing keeping him upright and climb into your lap with not a shred of awareness of his size.
Adopt Leonardo the Staffy and you won't just get a dog - you'll get your own living legend!
A little genius, a little bit chaos but a whole lotta love!
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.

With all animals it’s important to understand that going into a new environment with new people may not be as flawless as we want it to be. It’s important to know that these animals have unknown histories. Most left in the shelter by their owners. The information we receive is from observing the animal’s behaviours & reactions to certain stimuli whilst in our care. Adopted animals can take up to 3 months to properly decompress from post-shelter life & a lot of behaviours & quirks will surface during this time. All that we ask is that their new owners have an open mind & are patient.
So please keep in touch with us after adoption so that we can help you settle your new family member in and address any unexpected behaviours.
The adoption fee for dogs covers C5 vaccination, health check, heartworm testing, desexing, micro-chipping, and registration.
The adoption fee for cats covers F3 vaccination, health check, desexing, micro-chipping, and registration.
