About Leo

Meet Leo, a charming senior Cocker Spaniel who's 11.5 years young and weighs 23 pounds. His heart is as big as his gentle spirit. Leo enjoys the good life, which means cozy beds, ear scratches, and treats. He's a quiet guy who thrives on human companionship and gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes, children, and adults alike. Although he prefers to stay close by rather than being a lap dog, he's incredibly affectionate. A gentle nose bump will let you know he’s asking for some attention and belly rubs are always welcome. Leo is housebroken, crate trained, and well-mannered on a leash. He learned “sit” in just three tries and has recently taken to swimming while safely sporting a vest! After a tough start earlier this year, Leo has made a remarkable recovery, thanks to some surgeries and lots of tender loving care. Now, he’s ready to find that special forever family who’s looking for a loving, loyal companion. Could that be you?
