More about Leo

At 11 years old, Leo is more than ready to trade shelter life for a cozy home and a family who will love him through his golden years. Don’t let his age fool you, though—this handsome Labrador still has plenty of pep in his step! Leo is the kind of dog who greets everyone like they’re an old friend, and his happy, social personality is impossible not to love. Leo still enjoys all the things Labs are known for. Tennis balls? Absolutely. Long walks? Count him in. Spending time outdoors? It’s one of his favorite places to be! We can tell this lifelong Alaskan was made for the great outdoors and is happiest soaking up everything nature has to offer. Leo previously lived indoors and comes with wonderful house manners. He is both potty trained and crate trained, walks nicely on a leash, and knows the cues sit, stay, down, and off. Like any dog moving into a new home, he’ll need a little time to settle in and learn his new family’s routine, but he has all the makings of an easygoing companion. Being well past his puppy years, Leo is looking for a home where he can simply enjoy life with his people. We weren’t given information about his history with other animals, so any introductions should be done thoughtfully. Our team is happy to provide a dog meet and greet prior to adoption if needed. Senior dogs have so much love left to give, and Leo is no exception. At a time in life when many dogs are overlooked simply because of their age, Leo is hoping someone sees what we see—a loyal, affectionate companion with years of friendship still ahead of him. We have no doubt that the perfect family is out there, and we can’t wait for Leo to spend his golden years exactly where he belongs: at home.
