My personality

My story

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

Leo is a 4-year-old classic Basset Hound with a playful and lovable spirit, ready to charm his way into your heart. This sweet boy is fully housetrained and adores toys—he’ll even entertain himself with a game of solo fetch! He thrives in a home where his people are around most of the day and would be thrilled to have a canine buddy to share in his adventures. Leo is wonderful with kids, though his enthusiastic personality makes him better suited to families with school-aged children or older.

A lover of the outdoors, Leo enjoys daily walks and occasional trips to the dog park. With his amazing Basset nose, he’s always on the lookout for hidden treats or snacks—and his love for food and fun is sure to keep you entertained! Since joining his foster family, Leo’s personality has truly blossomed, revealing a fun-loving, adventurous side. Whether you’re out exploring or snuggling at home, Leo is happiest when he’s by your side.

Leo has manageable skin allergies, which require daily medication, weekly baths, and a special diet, but he takes it all in stride. In return, he’ll reward you with endless loyalty and joy.

Don’t miss out on this incredible companion! Contact BROOD today to meet Leo and make him part of your family. His adoption fee is $300.00.

**Only BROOD-approved adopters can meet a dog (no exceptions). Our adoption application is on the BROOD website at https://brood-va.org/adoptionapp/. We adopt to residents of Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, DC, Delaware, and southern Pennsylvania. Do not apply to adopt from BROOD if you live in another state. We require a virtual home visit and a veterinary reference. The age of BROOD dogs is an estimate, as very few come with exact age records. 01/02/2025
