About Leo

Meet Leo. This little guy was found wandering the streets of Memphis during a heavy rainstorm. After nearly a week of searching for his owner, he became a HappiDog. Leo is around 4-5 years old and eager to find his forever home. He's been neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. Currently, Leo is undergoing treatment for heartworms, which is common in the south. His adoption fee covers complete treatment, and he’s already making great progress. At about 10 pounds, Leo is a sweet fella who gets along with both dogs and cats. While he can be a bit shy initially, he loves to cuddle up on the couch. He enjoys outdoor time and walks well on a leash, though he prefers the freedom of running without one. If you think Leo would be the perfect addition to your family, click apply to start the adoption process.
