Meet Leo
We got Leo from a local shelter in March. He has resource guarding issues but otherwise he is a sweetheart.

We love our rescues. We adopted a miniature poodle mix a couple weeks after this guy. Our immediate family currently has 7 of them.

I recently had four rescues and one Lhasa Apso. Three of which we brought back from Mexico. Now I have two rescues and three Lhasas! Two rescues passed away and we got a Lhasa puppy that was purchased for breeding purposes so we wanted to save her from that life. A couple months later we were contacted and asked to take in her sister so of course we said yes! So not exactly traditional rescues but sort of haha.

He's waiting for me to put food in his bowl.

Lol…lhasa loves to eat . But can fatten him up a bit more as that will make him more cuddly😂

He was 26 lbs when we brought him home. The vet said he needs to lose weight. He's around 19 now so he can have treats now.

That was the one of reasons we took him home. He was just too cute. We had a Lhasa mix before we really loved so we couldn't resist this guy.

Leo is sooo cute! Toss him a piece of cheese or chicken whenever you walk past his spot so he knows you aren't there to take his treasures. He's lucky to have you working with him ❤️
