• No cats, birds or pocket pets
• A commitment to following her physiotherapy program for life
Leona is a beautiful soul that loves being with her people. Her big brown eyes, kind spirit and persistence for pats, make her a loveable companion. Her tail wags are so epic, it results in a half body wag.
She knows sit, will wait for her food and is crate trained. Leona is initially strong on lead but does ease into the walk. She is very treat motivated, so coupled with her intelligence, I’m sure you could teach her just about anything.
She enjoys the company of her foster fur brother and follows him everywhere. She is seeking a home with a medium to large male doggy companion. She would much prefer her owners be close by, so owners that are home more often than not are preferred.
Leona needs a home with no cats, birds or pocket pets as she finds them far too interesting.
Leona has been diagnosed with moderate hip weakness, specifically in her left hip. Please read medical notes below before applying.

Located Pascoe Vale.
Medical notes
Leona came into care panting fairly consistently. After thorough assessment, she appears to have moderate hip weakness, specifically in her left hip. This may be causing her some discomfort which may affect her panting at rest.
Leona’s physiotherapist believes she does not need any surgery or medications and instead a conservative approach (exercise and massage) should be effective. Leona will come with her own physiotherapy program to strengthen her hips and keep her happy and healthy. It is a commitment of approx 15 - 20 mins per day. Adherence to this program is a MUST for anyone wishing to adopt her.
It is recommended Leona limits her running, twisting and jumping in order to not cause lameness and lead to medical intervention. She should not be a jogging partner, nor do repetitive running with twisting where she chases balls at high speed and not jump in/out of high vehicles.
