Well, Leon is from bad blood believe it or not.
My Dad and his wife had 2 Labs before - one of them is on one of the pics above, sadly passed now. They only came across hovawarts when the security guard in their estate approached them knowing they were dog owners. A dog had been found, not claimed and was due to be PTS so Dad and Maria took him on. They are proud loving dogs, intelligent and playful, absolutely huge!! When they lost their rescue Lobo after he was poisoned they sourced another two.
Perla and Leon, unfortunately, Perla was awful, so untrusting and angry and aggressive, they tried and tried with her, one day they came home and Perla had nearly ripped their Lab to shreds, she was PTS shortly after, she really was a lost cause.
Leon, her brother had always stood behind her but after Perla was gone he came out of his shell and he is so loving and gentle. He absolutely loves being cuddled, when I stand on the balcony, he stands next to me, I put my arms round his neck and he is in heaven. Mora is less trusting with me but still very playful, she is a through and through Daddys girl and is extremely loyal and attentative to my Dad.
They were unlucky with Perla, but I would 100% recommend them as a pet, fantastic dogs, they really are xx
