Hello future family! My name is Leonardo, but my foster mum calls me Leo!
I am a ball of energy ready to play and explore this crazy world! Born on just 3/31/24, I am making a good impression on everyone I meet (at least that's what my foster mum tells me!) My journey began down in Arkansas with a couple of my siblings. I moved up here to MN to start my new life! So far, it has been awesome! I get to play with the resident Pup who I call my "big Brother" because we look so alike and act alike! He's teaching me everything I need to know to be a really good boy! Foster mum keeps saying how I am so much like him and that makes me happy, because she really loves her pup, so I want to be just like him so I can have a family someday who loves me as much as the foster mum loves her pup and me!
Since I have a resident pup to show me everything I need to know on how to be a good boy, I am catching on quickly and I am such a good listener and learner! I know basic commands like sit, stay, gentle, come. I do well on the leash and love to go for walks! I love playing outside and sunbathing with the resident pup. I even realized at 10 weeks old that I LOVE to swim in the lake and get my toes wet!
Things I am good at and things I am working on: I am working on potty training currently, each day I am starting to understand the concept more and more! I look for the puppy pads when I am inside and will also start to ring the bell on the door to let foster mum know I have to go out if I am not distracted. I pick up on skills fairly quickly. I don't mind being in my kennel but would rather be out with everyone else playing. I am okay in my kennel for 6-8 hours (typically one time a week). Foster mum works from home so I don’t have to go in the kennel that much, which I LOVE! I am good at entertaining myself with bones, yak chews and toys and can be content laying on the floor, bed or couch chewing on a good bone! I am really good at snuggling in bed with my foster mum and pup and on the couch when I am really tired! I sleep the whole night snuggled next to my foster mum or pup and don’t wake up until she tells me it’s time to. I love car rides too! I have done well on a leash outside and off a leash and stay near my foster mum and pup and listen well.
Overall, I am a good boy. Foster mum keeps saying and says it will be hard to give me up since I have been so good and love her and the pup so much! But, If I can find a family who will love me as much as they do, I will be one happy lil pup!
