    weird story.....my father was always telling us how he eventually wanted to get a leonberger...his name was leon. we always thought there was no such dog. 3 days after he died of cancer, my brother and i are driving home and we see a bumper sticker in front of us...."if it's not a leonberger...it's just a dog." wow!

    We have three family dogs, a pomeranian, a corgi and a leonberger. George, our leo, is the most affectionate, smartest, cuddliest and loving dog I've ever met. A true gentle giant.

    I looked after a male Leonburger while the owners were on holiday. He was so well trained and trustworthy. While with us, a cyst formed in his skin and I had to clean it out with iodine. Imagine! He gently, without using his teeth, tried to nudge me off with his huge mouth but had he been at all aggressive he could have had my hand off. Reliable, safe and trustworthy breed but do need plenty emotional reassurance and keeping company. Prone to health issues probably due to inbreeding and do not have a long lifespan. I grew up with lovely labradors but that Leonburger was seriously the nicest dog ever. A child who was petrified of dogs came to cuddle him while he lay passively.

    Been absolutely fantastic to learn about breeds of dogs I’d never heard of 20 years ago.

    Our Leonberger was the smartest and most affectionate dog ever. He was a family member for ten years, and we still honor his memory. He had the soul of a poet.

    I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE THIS! I MET ONE ONLY TODAY (the day of publication). I thought he was some form of Malinois, with his narrow "Alsation" muzzle and mannerisms... Yet there was something different, very different. The 3 month old puppy was being very well behaved on the bus, with his human almost constantly reassuring him and basically being a model owner in a strange environment. When we got off the bus, we had a little meet and greet, and although a bit aloof to start, he quickly warmed up and gently sought a little bit of attention from anyone within leash reach. One thing he definitely wasn't was goofy in any way. Very powerful intellect... And SUCH a soft coat!

    I had the privilege of meeting a leonburger. After loosing a very special dog, I went to a rescue to look at the dogs. This majestic leonburger was in the lobby & pretty much nudged me to the bench. I began crying as I was hugging him & he gently got in my lap & hugged me back. Unfortunately he was not up for adoption. I fell in love with leonburgers that day. 😍 ❤

    Our Leonberger is stubborn. If I say "come" she looks at me with an expression telling me I hear you but I don't care. But I still love her!

    I thought the same thing about the German Shepherd possibly getting into the mix. They have that face and eyes. Definitely an awesome family dog.

    I’ve been waiting forever for this vid to drop 🥰 Leos are amazing! Yes they shed all the time but they don’t drool so there’s that…and they really do love to play all the time. They’re surprisingly fast and agile for a giant breed…and they never meet a person or animal they don’t like(or want to play with 😂). I never had problems with odor if they’re brushed daily and wiping the ears, brushing teeth…they’re very tolerant of all that. Wonderful lovely doggos💗 Ty for doing this vid💗💐

    What a very nice informal study on the Leonberger. You and your guests included a lot of the basic background on the Breed and provided valuable information for anyone considering bringing a Leo into their home. Having both Leos and Pyrs, I'd say the Leos are much more willing to please then the Pyrs are, and that's due to the Pyrs having worked as guardian breed for so many hundreds of years without a lot of human interaction.
