About Leo
Leo is a beautiful snuggle bug who loves to be on the couch with you getting his ears scratched and bum rubbed. He loves his humans and greets you enthusiastically when you get home, before guiding you to the couch for a cuddle. Leo is also happy to be his own man and will happily go and sleep on his bed when he feels he needs some space. Sleeping (especially upside down and inside out) is his favourite hobby.
Leo loves walks and gets very excited to go and explore his local neighbourhood. However, Leo still has a lot of work to do with his manners towards other dogs. He can be quite reactive and overexcited towards unfamiliar dogs and needs ongoing training to help build his confidence and encourage calm behaviour. Amazing Greys has resources to help with this and can also recommend positive reinforcement/force-free trainers to help. Leo needs a confident handler who is committed to continuing to help him through his training needs.
Leo’s ideal home will have a backyard to help take the pressure off walks as he continues his training, and also because he likes a good zoomie. Leo would prefer a quiet neighbourhood and his new humans will take him for walks at quieter times and/or drive to quiet locations for walks. Leo would prefer to be the only dog in his new home. He is NOT suited to a home with cats, other breeds of dog, or pocket pets.
Inside the home, Leo is the perfect gentleman. He is a happy and calm boy who loves to play with his enrichment toys, and occasionally steal his mum’s ugg boots (although has very kindly never destroyed them!). Leo is a clever boy who has learned lots of basic cues (sit, down, look, touch, wait, on your bed) and his current carers will show you all the visual cues they have taught him.
Leo is comfortable home alone for up to 5 hours and provided he access to outside for toileting, we think he would be fine with PT or FT workers.
If you think Leo sounds like your perfect match, please contact us at adopt@amazinggreys.com.au.
