Leka

Meet Leka, the Albanian prince! <br/><br/>Super sweet Leka came to Freedom Ride after being rescued from the abusive hands of his first owner (in Albania), who was known to be abusive towards him. He found his way into the hearts of some locals who worked to get him out of his dismal situation and into the life he deserves. <br/><br/>Despite the abuse and a very long plane ride, Leka has transitioned into American life quite nicely, with a smile! We are guessing his breed to be a Chihuahua and Beagle mix, but the jury is still out. Leka is around five years of age and thirteen pounds. Despite his negative interactions with humans, he still adores them (dogs are so resilient!). Leka lives with a female foster and instantly took to her. He is a little slower to warm up to men, but has done well with slow and thoughtful introductions. <br/><br/>Leka lives with two dogs, one that is large and boisterous and one that is a small senior. He does well with each of them. Leka also has a cat foster sister. While he has been overzealous towards her, he is not aggressive--just very interested and excited about a cat friend. Leka is working on his potty-training skills and is almost there! Our prince is crated when his foster mom is out, and he goes right in with a treat. He does like to sing his song when left alone for a few minutes, so apartment life may not be for him. Leka cannot get enough of his new squeaky toy collection. It's his favorite American thing, after walking his new neighborhood on his leash. <br/><br/>Leka would do well in many family environments, and he is hoping you can help him complete his American dream, already in progress.
