About Lenny

Adoption Fee: $300
American Staffordshire Terrier / Pit Bull
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Lenny is 3yo, neutered, house trained, staffy mix. He is good with dogs & kids. Cats unknown. Leon is a big 75lb gentle dude. He's happy for the simple things, easy walks and rolling on the grass. He's good on leash and in the car. Lenny's original owner was an addict who abandoned him & another dog with his parents. The parents were not able or willing to take on the dogs so they put them in 'cheap' boarding. Once they notified the boarder that they would no longer be able to pay, she started to list them for sale on Craigslist even though she was aware of the dangers of Craigslist. The bottom line was that once she was not collecting money for them, they needed to go. She gave us a deadline & said if they weren't able to be sold on Craigslist by a certain date she would take them to the shelter. Our volunteer that saw the conditions they were living in & said the shelter would definitely be a step up. ���� Thankfully one of our volunteers negotiated a couple of extra days so we could find a temporary place for them to go. They are now in boarding at a vet's office until we find proper foster homes or forever homes. Their paws are being treated for infection which the vet said was most likely caused from unsanitary living conditions (standing in urine). They were being kept in separate small rooms & only let out into a filthy yard to potty then back to solitary. They were not being walked or played with. ���� Lenny is now happy and grateful to have a second chance at a true forever home.
