About Leonardo
Leonardo is a two-year-old, medium-sized mixed-breed dog who was found alone on the streets of New York before being rescued just in time. He has an athletic build, a sleek, golden and white coat, and a big, expressive grin that draws people in. Leonardo gained experience as the shelter’s official “greeter dog,” showing new pups around and helping them feel at home. Since being rescued, he’s flourished in foster care and is now searching for that active, supportive family where he can really settle in. This goofy, charming dog is happiest when he’s in good company—dogs, people, even delivery drivers get a friendly greeting. Leonardo is crate trained, house trained, and generally quiet, making him a nice fit for a work-from-home household. He gets along well with dogs and is living with two in his foster home. Leonardo’s energy means older kids are his best fit, since he’s still learning not to jump up when excited. He loves walks, hikes, and plenty of playtime, so a home with active humans who appreciate a youthful spirit would be ideal. Leonardo is also smart, eager to please, and takes direction well, especially when treats or snuggles are offered. He’ll need patience as he continues learning manners and impulse control, but the payoff is a devoted, lively companion who’s ready for adventures—and downtime—with his new family. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
