About Leonardo
Leonardo is a 9-week-old baby boy looking for his forever home. This Chihuahua mix weighs around 4.4 lbs and is full of energy, ready to explore the world on his own four paws rather than being carried in a purse. He’s eager for a family that will engage him with toys and allow him to burn off his puppy zoomies with playtime and walks in the neighborhood. With his socialization window wide open, Leonardo gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children, provided he receives the patience and proper training. Being such a young puppy, he will need frequent potty breaks and exercise throughout the day, so potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday should be prepared to make arrangements to meet his needs. Leonardo is up for his first puppy obedience classes, where he can show off just how smart he is. He is currently living in a rural shelter and needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to make his way into a loving household. Are you ready to take this little one home?
