Leon is a Greyhound who we got from Limerick Animal Welfare in 2009. He's a sweet and sensitive soul and like a typical greyhound he enjoys his comforts! He loves his bed and sleeping is definitely one of his favourite things to do. Licking yogurt pots, going on car trips and being sung to are also high up on his list! Leon manages to be both undemanding of our attention and yet he remains in the middle of everything that goes on in the house! We love Leon so much and are so grateful to all at LAW for everything they've done for him.

Awh, I am only seeing this now Lisa! What a lovely coincidence! My Leon is here beside me so it's not the same dog. Congratulations on adopting Leon. Greyhounds are such amazing dogs and I'm sure Leon is loving being part of your family!

I adopted a greyhound for the first time 2 months ago and it was the best thing I have ever done. Leon is very loving and loves going for long walks. I am so happy that he has come in to my life.

Just came across this webpage with Leon. I just adopted a greyhound called Leon from South Wales. Is it him in the photos? He looks very much the same with the same markings. Thanks.

Awh, thanks Justine! It was lovely to meet you too! Greyhound welfare is such an important issue and says a lot about us as a society, so we were delighted to be able to attend. Leon loves to meet people and always enjoys his trips into the city centre! If only we had dog-friendly cafes, he'd be in there everyday!! ;)

I met Leon (with Hilary) today outside the Department of Agriculture. We were there to protest about Bord na gCon's plans to export Irish Greyhounds to China. Seeing Leon there really reinforced everyone's commitment to fighting against this terrible proposal. Nice to meet you Hilary and Leon.

Ahhh he's lovely! I always think that Greyhounds make such good pets, they have such sweet temperments! Well the ones I've met anyway! He looks happy out!

Thanks so much for all of the compliments on Leon! He really is as gorgeous on the inside as he is on the outside! We are hoping to get a little girlie this year for Leon to play with. Leon loves the ladies!! x

Oh Leon, it's so wonderful to see you here! Everyone at the LAW sanctuary sends lots of love and hugs to you, special boy. You are lucky, your mum recognised how special you were by spending time at the sanctuary. I'm so glad you got such a wonderful home. xxx
