About Leo in RI

Meet Leo, a charming 6-year-old mini poodle ready for a fresh start. This sweet boy weighs about 10 lbs and has a friendly disposition that makes him a wonderful companion. Leo previously lived with a family that had small children, proving he’s not only affectionate but also great with kids. He’s potty trained and excels on a leash, often barking gently at the door when it’s time for a bathroom break. While he enjoys the company of humans, Leo can be a bit temperamental with other dogs and cats, so a home where he can be the only pet might suit him best for now. Leo has already been neutered, which should help with some of those behaviors. If you’re looking for a well-mannered companion who has mastered the basics, Leo could be a perfect fit for you. Ready to welcome this sweet pup into your life?
