LeeRoy: Piper x Deacon Puppy Report

LeeRoy

LeeRoy’s mom took home an SPFL puppy from us 2 years ago. It was time to add a new family member and although they wanted another female, I knew this little boy was the right choice for them. I am so pleased with Puppy Culture, Avidog, temperament testing, and our associates who help us assess pups; it all comes together with excellent matches!

From LeeRoy’s mom over the last week:  He’s fabulous. I hate to tell you he is sleeping in our bed right now. He’s so good around our big dogs. Played in the dog pool and sand box. Leroy by the way is doing absolutely fantastic. He fits in super well with the family.

Yesterday:  Our LeeRoy is having a blast with his 7 mos. old cousin Huckleberry. I have to say LeeRoy is fearless and so loving all together. Has caught on so quickly to potty training and sitting for the expected cookie.
