Levi is a medium-sized, young male Terrier mix located in North Fort Myers, FL. He has been altered and is up to date on vaccinations. Currently, he is not house trained and should not be in a home with children or other pets, but with the right patience, he has the potential to thrive.

About Levi

Levi is a young Terrier mix who has faced a tough start in life. After being abandoned and thrust into a stranger's yard, he’s understandably cautious around people. With gentle care and encouragement, he’s showing signs of progress and slowly building trust with the staff at the Animal Refuge Center. This sweet boy needs an adult-only home where he can feel secure. We recommend no other pets or small children for now, as he’s still learning about his surroundings and how to interact. Levi doesn’t need a perfect environment; he just needs someone patient who can help him regain his confidence and feel safe once again. If you have the heart and time to help a nervous pup like Levi, he could blossom into a loving companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
