Rescue of the Month: Leo the Lovable Lady

Leo, German shepherd mix at Charleston Animal Society - Rescue of the MonthAre you searching for a loyal companion with a playful spirit to brighten your days? Meet Leo, a 7-year-old German shepherd mix who’s bursting with personality and ready to bring endless joy to her future ‘fur-ever’ family. Don’t let her name confuse you, Leo is very much a lady and proud of it.

Leo’s story is one of resilience. After spending nearly all her life in a loving home, she found herself at the Charleston Animal Society after her energy proved a little too much while her family was adjusting to life with a new baby. The transition from a home to a shelter has been challenging for Leo, leaving her confused and stressed. But her playful and loving nature keeps her spirits high. Now, she’s on a mission to find her perfect match with a family who will embrace her enthusiasm for life.

Despite being 7, Leo’s energy rivals that of a puppy. She thrives on activity and would be a fantastic fit for an active household. Leo loves to play, run and explore, making her an ideal companion for someone who enjoys outdoor adventures or daily exercise. Her play style can get a bit rowdy, so she would do best in a home without young children who might find her liveliness overwhelming. That being said, Leo is no stranger to sharing her space. She’s lived harmoniously with another dog and even a cat, so a pet sibling could be a great match, especially one that shares her zest for fun.

Leo is more than just a bundle of joy, she’s also well-mannered. She’s crate-trained, housebroken and eager to please. The staff at CAS have addressed a few minor health issues and she’s now in great shape, ready to settle into her new life. Her combination of affection, loyalty and readiness to explore makes her the total package for the right family.

What Leo needs most is a child-free home where her new humans can match her energy and provide her with the love and attention she deserves. Whether it’s long walks, a game of fetch or just hanging out after an adventure-filled day, Leo is ready to be your partner in life’s moments.

If you’re ready to meet this amazing pup, Leo is waiting to meet you at Charleston Animal Society. Stop by and ask for Leo the Lovable Lady; you might just find the perfect addition to your family. Leo’s story is still being written, and with your help, it can have a happy ending.
