Meet Lionel
Mischief aka Lionel
Lionel arrived at the Animal Care Facility shut down and afraid of humans. Lionel went into foster where he has been slowly learning to trust and believe he is safe. Lionel will need lifelong trust building rehabilitation with all new humans he meets. Gentle voices and kind hands are a must. Lionel will run away and not allow petting when out in an open space. He prefers to stay in his crate but has the door open for all the freedom he wants at his own pace. He loves toys and frozen PB KONGS. He is very sweet. He is short and stocky, weighing approx. 50lbs.
We can only speculate on his past, but what we do know is that humans were not kind to him and hurt him physically and emotionally.
