About Leroy

Leroy joined our Shelter after the Fond du Lac Humane Society reached capacity. This senior dog, born on September 10, 2015, is bursting with energy and thrives on human interaction, eagerly seeking lap time and affection. While still honing his leash skills, Leroy is curious about the world, often pulling to explore his surroundings. He’s kennel trained and fully house trained, making him a reliable companion. Leroy does require a fenced-in yard for safe play, and it's been noted that he doesn't get along with small animals like cats or rabbits. However, he may coexist well with a respectful dog of a similar size. A perfect home for Leroy would include loving family members, a cozy bed, and plenty of treats to keep him smiling. Neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations, he’s ready for adoption. Please reach out to us via phone or email before visiting Leroy, especially if you have other dogs, as a meet-and-greet will be necessary. Your new best friend is just one click away.
