Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Leo is a 3 year old merle male with natural ears.Update 11/16/18 - Leo continues to amaze us with his transformation. He has graduated level one obedience training and will start the more challenging level two training on November 29th. He is getting along extremely well with his foster sister, he has the run of the house, and we trust him not to get into trouble. He sleeps on a bed rather than in a crate in the master bedroom with his foster sister, without incident. He has surpassed our expectations for a dog with little to no training, he has made tremendous progress. Leo is now left in the recreation room when we are out instead of his crate, he has not disappointed us, he does not get on the furniture and has not had an accident. Our dog sitter stated he is a complete gentleman when she takes him out and she loves how he runs in the backyard with the jolly ball in his mouth. Leo loves to be around his foster parents wherever they are and will give kisses when you least expect them. He enjoys watching television and no longer barks at the dogs on commercials. Leo will bark when he hears the doorbell but will not jump on our guests. Leo has been taught by his foster sister how to “play”, it appears he was never socialized properly and it is our opinion he never had the pleasure of just being a dog. We are happy to say Leo and his foster sister are playing constantly and they get along great. For a dog that apparently never experienced play he certainly enjoys his playtime now. Once again, with continued training and a committed owner, Leo will make an excellent pet.
