My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This is Lionel (HWTH#19205A). He is a Belgian Shepherd mix, DOB: 1/16/19. Lionel weighs approximately 35 pounds (he is slightly underweight) and stands 18 inches at the shoulders. Lionel and his siblings are among a group of 20 dogs rescued from a hoarder in the Antelope Valley. None of them was fed properly or given any real socialization with either humans or other dogs outside their group. Lionel is a very sweet but timid boy; he shows no aggression and does warm up to you when he becomes acquainted with you and with attention. It will be imperative for his new owner to be a kind, patient person willing to give Lionel a bit of time to adjust to his new surroundings, give him the love, good quality human companionship, structure, exercise and possibly playtime as well as the training and socialization he needs so Lionel can learn to enjoy life and experience the bond between dog and human. When Lionel is thoroughly settled in his new Forever home, he will benefit from positive basic obedience training to help with leash training, other obedience commands, socialization with both new dogs and other humans as well as the bonding with his new owner. Lionel should also be given a variety of appropriately-sized chew toys so he has an outlet for puppy chewing even though he is almost 1 year old. Lionel is crate friendly but may need some house training. For more information on Lionel, please call Sandy at tele # 661-824-4495 (this is a land-line phone).
