Leo

My story

Leo is a 1-3 year old, 15-20 lbs chihuahua/doxie mix from Mexico. Leo has adjusted well to his new life in the big apple! He absolutely loves to be out on walks and explore his surroundings. He likes to join you on errands and is patient and well mannered wherever he goes. Though he may get a lot of attention, he can be shy around new people when first approached. But he instantly lights up and becomes excited when he sees another dog, always showcasing his dog etiquette. He has superb leash skills and walks like he is a dog in show, prancing and keeping his pace next to you while looking up to you for reassurance. He likes cozy blankets and loves all snacks, especially cheese and his new favorite yogurt.  Leo is quiet at home and plays quietly with his foster sister. He quickly warmed up to his foster sister and likes when she licks his ears and gives him kisses and will nuzzle up to her for more.  He would benefit from having another pup at home to adjust to his new family and new routine.  Because he gets nervous when adjusting to new things and has a shy nature, he would be best with older children and a patient family.  As he comes out of his shell, he shows a devoted and easy going boy! Vaccinated for rabies, DHPP, bordetella, and Lepto. Neutered, heartworm negative, and microchipped. Current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.  To apply for Leo, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available. Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable dog, or final size of any of our adoptable puppies. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the dog into our rescue. Questions: adopt@waggytailrescue.org ##2336137##
