Meet Lennard, or Lenny for short! This sweet and affectionate two-year-old is a large mixed breed weighing in at 57 pounds. He has come a long way from his days wandering the streets of Brooklyn, evolving from a timid, anxious pup into a confident and loving companion thanks to dedicated foster care. Patience and training have helped him shine, and now he’s all about love and loyalty. Lennard is curious and clever, always on the lookout for new ways to entertain himself and keep his humans engaged. His food motivation leads him to great adventures in sniffing out hidden treats or solving puzzle feeders. He’s house and crate trained and responds well to commands like "sit," "stay," and "paw." Leash walks are enjoyable, as he prances alongside while remaining curious about other dogs - though he can easily be redirected with treats. Lennard is unfazed by baths, car rides, or even fireworks. While he experiences some anxiety when left alone, he has improved significantly and could benefit from a slow introduction to another dog. Keep in mind that he does have a prey drive, so small pets are not a match for him. An adult-only home would be best as he still needs guidance given his strength. If you’re ready for a dog who will shower you with love and joy, Lennard is the perfect fit! He is currently fostered in Vassalboro, ME. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
