Leonardo
Golden Retriever / Poodle (Standard) / Mixed (short coat) · Adult (4 years 11 months) · Male · Glendale, AZ
Notes from Arizona Golden Rescue
LEONARDO is available!
Leonardo is a large and tall 4-and-1/2-year-old neutered male Goldendoodle; he is loving and with a heart of gold. His friendly demeanor and love for playtime make him an ideal companion for anyone seeking a loyal furry friend.
Leonardo’s zest for life is contagious! He enjoys playing, chasing after tennis balls, and curling up on the couch for cuddle sessions. Leonardo is a smart cookie! He has completed an extensive board and train session, where he has learned impulse control when greeting people, in addition to basic commands. He has visited Home Depot several times and met strangers very politely. Once Leo is adopted, his trainer is happy to meet with the family several times to help them with ongoing training techniques.
Leonardo has shown that he can live with other dogs, but is also happy to be the center of attention as the only dog. Leonardo has interacted with kids aged 9 to 15 and aced the test! He’s been gentle and allowed them to pet him all over without any issues. But he is big and toddlers are not advised because he can accidently knock them down.
Leonardo takes a small daily dose of fluoxetine to manage his anxiety. Loud noises, like fireworks, still spook him, but he finds comfort in being close to his human companions during those moments. He also takes some Benedryl for allergies.
Are you ready to welcome Leonardo into your heart and home?
