Leonard - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in South Plainfield, New Jersey

Meet Leonard! Your new best friend is waiting!

At 32 pounds, Leonard is the perfect combination of sweet, chill, and playful! This handsome Shepherd mix has a heart of gold and a whole lot of love to give. He's a people person through and through and happiest when he's spending time with his favorite humans.

Leonard has a wonderfully easygoing personality. He's calm and affectionate but still has a playful side that keeps life fun! He loves being outdoors, going for walks, taking car rides, and playing with his favorite squirrel toy. And when the day winds down? His favorite place might just be your bed! He currently sleeps with his foster's son, so clearly he knows a thing or two about getting cozy.

A few things to love about Leonard:
- Dog-friendly and enjoys the company of other pups!
- Super sweet, affectionate, and loves his people.
- Potty trained!
- Walks beautifully on a leash.
- Enjoys car rides and outdoor adventures.
- Professional cuddle buddy and bed-sharing enthusiast!

Leonard has been wonderful with people, and he would do best with a family with children 9 and older. A fenced-in backyard would be a great bonus for this outdoor-loving guy!

Leonard really is the best of both worlds. He'll happily join you for a walk or some backyard fun, but he's just as content relaxing at home and soaking up all the affection you have to offer.

If you're looking for a sweet, easygoing companion who will be your walking buddy, your couch buddy, AND your bedtime buddy, Leonard is your guy!
