About Leo

Adoption Fee: $100
Shiba Inu
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Everyone please meet Leo! He lives in between the Lehigh Valley and Poconos in Pennsylvania. He just turned 1 the end of November. My 16 year old brought him home from a poor situation and we have been trying to be a good fit for him but we are epically failing. He is neutered and up to date on shots. He is crate trained and crated at night. He is used to a dog door to go out in a fenced in yard. He gets along with our female chihuahua. A few months ago he started to have issues with our male corgi. Corgis are a very strong will dominant breed and Leo is very stubborn. It has escalated each time to the point where when he is upset over something he attacks the corgi. At one point my fianc�� tried to get him off the corgi and got bit in the fight, it wasn't intentional. My fianc�� didn't think and just reached in, so it was human error. Unfortunately he had to get medical care for the bite and he ended up with a bite on record in our county. He has not shown aggression towards people, just the corgi and it tends to be random. He has limited expose around small children, just occasional family visits. After the situation escalated with the corgi we stopped allowing him around the cats we have mostly because they like to run and he likes to chase��%BD'��%BD| We live in a half a double with a very small fenced in yard and in a town with bark ordnance. He loves to bark at everyone he can see and all animals that may pass by. Our house isn't set up to be able to keep him and the corgi apart. We want him to have the life he deserves and we are not able to give him that. He needs someone familiar with the breed and that has the time to work with him. He is a sweet boy.
