My name is Leo!

Meet Leo, a handsome 2 year old Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and a spirit full of energy. This sweet 45-pound boy is looking for a new home after his beloved owner recently passed away. Leo is a true joy to be around—he has a gentle temperament, gets along well with other dogs, and is incredibly responsive to human guidance. His eagerness to learn and willingness to please make him an excellent companion for anyone who enjoys training a dog with a good attitude and a big heart. 

Despite a rough couple months, Leo is a true survivor. He bravely fought through parvo and came out stronger than ever, and now he is immune to the virus—meaning he can never catch it again. His beautiful coat and bright eyes reflect his resilience and positive spirit. Leo is full of life, playful, and loves being active. Whether it's going for a walk, playing in the yard, or just hanging out with his humans, Leo will be by your side, eager to share his affection and energy. 

Leo will be neutered and up to date on all his vaccines, making him ready to move into his forever home. He’s a happy, healthy pup who’s sure to make a wonderful addition to any family. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s full of potential, Leo is the perfect match. He’s bound to win your heart and will be scooped up quickly, so apply for adoption today at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application
