About Leo
Leo is the sweetest boy
He is fantastic around cats, not interested in them at all. He loves to lay down on the floor next to the humans bed, but equally will sleep in his crate with his big fluffy bed.
Leo does not jump on the bed or couch without permission and will wait for his human to walk through a door first. He walks loosely on a lead and listens to instruction well.
In just a few weeks Leo has learnt that life doesn’t need to be fearful and he is making calm friends in daycare. Leo struggles initially when meeting new humans.
Leo needs to learn to trust. That will come from his new owner providing him with clear boundaries. He needs firm, calm reassuring guidance. He must not be allowed to take control of a potential threatening situation.
In his foster family he has become the most happy easygoing boy, we get smiles and waggles and it makes our day.
Leo’s new owner must be a confident canine handler. Our boy suffers low level separation anxiety but we’ve been working on building his resilience and he has come such a long way in a short time.
Leo really needs guidance and support when meeting new people and new dogs. You can see in the videos that Leo will quite happily accept other dogs in his space he just needs his human to let him know it’s ok and that they have his back.
If you believe Leo is the boy to receive your love, please email us and we will give him the chance to see if your right!
