Meet the delightful Leonard, fondly known as Lenny! 🌟 This sweet boy appeared at our rescue as a timid little fellow, often preferring to hide away in his pen, wishing to blend into the surroundings. Initially, Lenny needed a gentle hand to carry him around the shelter, and in his nurturing foster home, he clung to the safety of his crate, too anxious to explore the wide world beyond. But oh, how times have changed! 🌈 Fast forward to today, and Lenny is blossoming into the charming pooch he was always meant to be! He’s taken major strides—no longer just a wallflower, this curious cutie has learned to venture around the house on his own. You should see him dance with joy as he knows it's time for a walk! 🚶‍♂️ Not only has he become buddies with other pups, but he also initiates play now—how precious is that? However, Lenny is still a bit jittery with loud noises, sudden surprises, or new faces. He’s such a lovable boy, showing more of his playful spirit and happiness every single day! 🥰 At just 9 months old, Lenny may be a Staffy or Boxer mix, weighing in at 34 lbs of cuddle and love. 💖 He is already potty and crate trained, but caution must be practiced when opening doors; Lenny sees those doors as gateways to grand adventures! 🚪⚠️ While he’s mastering the command ‘wait’, it’s still a work in progress. When it comes to affection, Lenny is truly a cuddler. He can shower his forever friend with kisses; it just takes time to reveal that delightful side of him! Patience is key. As a spirited young lad, he still needs to learn about what’s off-limits to chew—especially when it comes to soft puppy love nibbles on his favorite humans! Because of this, he’ll do best in a home with kids aged 6 years or older. If your heart is feeling that pull towards this loving boy and you know you could give him a forever home filled with joy, apply to meet Lenny. Just remember, to begin this journey of love and companionship, you must apply through the Buddy App! Don’t let another moment pass—Lenny waiting for you! 🐾💖
