Meet Leo
Breed: Greyhound
Barking from: New Windsor, Auckland
What's up dog?
Leo brings a smile to everyone's face. No matter how good or bad your day has been, Leo's enthusiastic greetings and full energy welcomes always brighten things up. His unyielding loyalty, calm demeanor and curious nature make him a dream dog. He has come a long way since we've adopted him as a 3-year old ex-racing greyhound. Leo is an amazing companion to us and has made our lives so much richer for being there with us. As he's approaching his 8th birthday in September, he's slowly showing signs of grey on his snoot, yet his youthful exuberance and cheekiness is till present. Greyhounds are simply magical, and Leo is a poster child for ex-racing greyhounds who can become perfect large house cats.
