About Leona

Meet Leona! Her story tugs at the heartstrings. Found tied to a tree in the woods of Texas alongside her friend Kimora, Leona’s early life has been a struggle. Imagine the fear and uncertainty she felt, abandoned and left alone. Thankfully, she was rescued, and now Leona is ready for a fresh start. This two-year-old Terrier mix is a sight to behold, boasting beautiful black-and-tan markings and big brown eyes. Her little white blaze and expressive ears add to her charm. Leona seeks a family who will offer patience and kindness as she learns to trust again. She yearns for a home where she can feel safe and loved, free from the fear of being left behind. She will be in Maine starting December 5, 2026, and hopes that someone will recognize her sweetness and choose her for a lifelong companionship.
