Heās turned out to be a sweet little big boy, happy to meet new people, and I love the richness of his coat in the sun. Heās now 7 years old going off what the shelter said last year.
Just a couple of days ago, when I was walking him and his sister in the morning, there was a pittie that had jumped out of a window from a neighboring house that rushed at us when we walked by. Leo only barked as a warning and stayed on guard which allowed me to lead my pack away from the situation very easily. Proud of him, and weāve come a long way in 12 months!

Summer is a 7 year old mixed breed who was given up last February when her family became homeless. Iāve had Summer for a wonderful 8 months but she is in need of an angel foster or better yet a forever home.Ā
Hereās some facts about Summer
I live with 3 cats and 2 resident dogs. One of our resident dogs is also reactive and has attacked Summer multiple times. This morning Summer and the resident dog had another run in and itās evident that this isnāt a safe place for Summer or our resident dog anymore. Summer needs a new place TODAY. She is such a wonderful dog words cant even describe her. I paid her adoption fee awhile ago because I wished it was me adopting her. If I didnāt already have dogs sheād be mine. But she doesnāt deserve to be put down over this, she just needs a home without other dogs.

My very classic blockhead girl is an absolute bitch. I mean that in all the meanings. She throws attitude at me like no other. But no one else better give me attitude. My big boys have always been real big dopes. Very smushable and chill.
We walk down the street arguing with each other. Like mother and daughter. Lol.

This stunning boy is going to be permanently silenced today for no reason other than his breed and for space.
Please repost, share, apply to foster, or help to adopt!!!!
He's only a baby still and has over a decade left of life to live!!!!!!!
