About Leonard

Adoption Fee: $100.00
Pit Bull / German Shepherd
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

Leonard is a loveable, house-trained dog, who has been a great companion for the last 6 years and loves his 11 people in his 'circle of trust'. We adopted him as a puppy from a shelter in PA after his mother rejected the entire litter, and unfortunately we feel that without his mother he developed reactive and aggressive tendencies towards other dogs & occasionally people. Despite training, consulting with an animal behaviorist, and anti-anxiety medications his challenging behaviors have continued and we cannot manage him safely any longer with two little kids at home; specifically, he bit a person on a walk a year ago who surprised him when he jumped out in front of him. Len is 100 pounds of loveable energy and loves to snuggle. He is wary of other dogs and new people, but once he trusts you he forms deep bonds, with his 'circle of trust and love.' He likes to play outside, chew on sticks, chase a ball, and lounge around. He would be a protective and loving companion for a person or couple who don't socialize much and have a yard.
