About Leo

Meet Leo, a charming 3-year-old boy weighing 67 lbs. This smart and energetic dog is just waiting to find a forever home or foster placement before the 3 PM deadline on 02/26/24. Leo loves his daily walks and enjoys the company of volunteers who adore him. In his previous foster home, he thrived as a quiet houseguest, successfully bonding with kids as young as four and sharing space with small dogs. Leo is house trained and has a unique habit of bringing his leash to signal when he needs to go outside. He is affectionate, loves cuddles, and responds well to positive reinforcement. While he’s a favorite among PACC staff and volunteers, Leo doesn’t react well to negative corrections. If you think you could offer Leo the love he craves, please visit PACC before 3 PM on the 26th. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
