BIG NEWS! I am ready for ADOPTION!! I have (largely) overcome my fears around feet and am ready to find true love!! I would do great with a single woman or a low key couple who are savvy with rescued dogs. My name (Leo) reflects my big heart, which is about the size of a lipn’s. I love, love, love my people, but sometimes I just need a minute or to have a little space. I am an 8 year old Lhasa/Poodle cross, low shed, fully housebroken, and mellow in the house. I enjoy short walks but nothing too strenuous, as I have a touch of arthritis (a daily dose of glucosamine helps me to feel fit). I am otherwise a healthy boy who is neutered, vaccinated and heartworm negative. Can you give me a home? I have been a perfect boy in foster care and have even enjoyed a road trip (that was fun, I liked the hotel, and being on vacation). Please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com or visit www.nyabandonedangels.com, where you can complete and return an application online. I am waiting to hear from you and am ready to come home!!



UH-OH! Leo is a return to rescue, which of course is a very sad outcome. He was originally placed with a Cocker family, who had no experience with his breed. Our mistake, we are sorry, Leo, you needed a Lhasa family! Leo is a 8 year old Lhasa/Poodle cross who has a Lhasa temperament. Despite a very cute appearance, the Lhasa has a tough-minded character. Leo of course enjoys a good cuddle (massage of his ears and neck are his favorite), but is definitely not a play thing. When he’s had enough, he wants his space, and his family will need to respect that. Although nimble and also very agile, we believe Leo to have been injured, most likely kicked in his early life, which has slightly affected his gait. He can be cautious and fearful of feet, especially as he has a low stature. We are looking for a Lhasa lover with breed experience to become Leo’s permanent person. While he is currently fostering with a mom and a dad, he clearly does prefer women. We are thinking that a single woman might be best for him (she will soon become his whole world). Please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com or visit www.nyabandonedangels.com to submit an application. Leo has been neutered, microchipped, is current on all shots, and is also heartworm negative. This loving Lhasa is ready to go but he needs a destination. Any Lhasa lovers out there who would like to take him home?
