Leucas's Story
Leucas is the definition of a loyal companion. HE loves his people with his whole heart and once you're part of his circle, he'll happily be by your side through thick and think. But that kind of devotion also means he is cautious about strangers. Especially men.<br/><br/>Leucas naturally gravitates towards women and tends to trust them much more quickly. Men on the other hand need to earn his confidence. The good news? He's absolutely capable of getting there. With patience, respect, and a little time Leucas learns that not every unfamiliar person is someone he needs to worry about.<br/><br/>Leucas came to us after biting a man during a situation where he believed he needed to protect someone he cared about. While we don't excuse the behavior, it helps us understand him. He takes his job of looking after "his people" very seriously and he is looking for a family that can help him understand that he doesn't have to carry that responsibility anymore. <br/><br/>He'll thrive with someone who appreciates his loyalty, is willing to continue to build his confidence around new people and understands that trust is something he gives you thoughtfully, not freely. <br/><br/>If you're looking for a dog who forms deep, meaningful bonds and will be your biggest fan, Leucas just might be your perfect match. <br/><br/>Sometimes the dogs with the biggest hearts just need someone to show them that the world is a safe place.
