This is Leo, a 1.5 year old Deer Head Chihuahua mix. Leo loves long walks, cuddling under the covers, eating sweet potatoes and cucumbers, and playing tug-of-war. He’s super affectionate and emotionally attuned and loves kids.
Leo is house-trained but sometimes uses the pee pad overnight/early morning. He’s slightly under-socialized with other dogs but has shown huge growth while being fostered. He is always curious, if a bit awkward, when meeting them on walks, but never shows aggression. He gets a little overwhelmed at dog parks, but they’re growing on him!
Leo came from a chaotic family home where spent a lot of time alone. As a result, he has some anxiety when left alone and would be a great candidate for crate training. CBD has done wonders for his anxiety! He’d do really well in a family home or as a cuddly “third wheel” for a couple.
For more information about Leo, please contact his guardian at (510) 698-1362.
