Leo

Labrador Retriever - Shepherd - Adult - Male
Adoptable Large Mix Spayed/NeuteredUp-to-date with routine shotsHouse trained

This is Leo! He is approximately 1.5 yrs old and was an owner surrender to a kill shelter in West Virginia. After arriving in Columbus, Leo showed significant signs of reactive fear aggression. A.D.O.P.T. didn’t have the heart to send him back to the original shelter where he would’ve been immediately euthanized. Fortunately a wonderful trainer by the name of Daniel Carter with ColumbusDogTrainers.com (who has trained some past adoptables of ours) stepped up to help Leo. Daniel has been extremely pleased with his progress and has even posted several videos. Please see the link of Leo’s video progress from Daniel Carter at ColumbusDogTrainers.com. Because of Daniel’s patience and expertise, Leo was saved. It’s not over yet, however, because Leo still needs his forever home. He is currently staying with a wonderful foster who loves him and continues to work on the obedience and training that Daniel began. Leo will need a home that can be attentive to his special needs and be diligent about pursuing his continued success. No homes with small children would be considered at this time. Leo gets along with other dogs, cats and people in general. He is very affectionate and just needs consistency and stability. Daniel Carter has offered his services at no charge to Leo’s adopter for a 3 hour training session. We believe Leo was worth saving and hope the right home is just waiting for his arrival!
