Leonard's Story

Introducing: LEONARD. The Super Senior Bully Mix He's 12-ish years old. He's going blind. His hips are about as trustworthy as a gas station sushi roll. He pees a lot. He humps even more. And somehow, he's still the most loveable old man we've ever met. Leonard didn't deserve to end up in a pound. He was found as a stray, unclaimed, and left behind. But guess what? We stepped in. Because no senior dog deserves to have their last chapter written in a cold kennel. Now Leonard's days are filled with soft beds, snacks, belly rubs, and a whole lot of potty breaks. (Seriously, a lot.) He might be a little creaky, a little leaky, and a little freaky - but he's 100% adored. Would we love for someone to step up and give him the cushy retirement home he deserves? Absolutely. That would be the cherry on top. (he still has his). But until then, Leonard is living his best life with Northern Lakes Rescue, loved hard for however long he's got. Because even the oldest, quirkiest, most "oops I peed again" dogs deserve a soft landing.

Northern Lakes Rescue's Adoption Policy

We do not focus on one definition of a perfect home and instead focus on finding the best home for that particular dogs needs. Some dogs may require homes with fences, other dogs, children etc. while others do not. We are a foster based rescue, we do not house dogs at a facility. Age and breed, are NLR's best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website https://northernlakesrescue.org Our adoption fees cover spay, vaccinations, microchip and any additional medical care the dogs may have needed while in the rescue’s care.
