Pets of Larchmont
LEEDO is exceptional, says Beth Correll, Rimpau Blvd.
Rich Correll was jogging when he spotted Leedo on a Sunday on Larchmont Blvd. at “Open Your Heart Pet Rescue.”
The next three weeks during the TV director’s runs he saw other puppies being adopted, but the 12-week old pup with a cleft plate stayed behind. People donated money in a jar set on a crate to raise money to fix his deformity but no one would adopt the mixed breed.
That third Sunday Rich came home and told his wife Beth, and, being an animal lover, they went to get him.
“We’ve been told by veterinarians that we could fix the issue if we want, but, as my husband puts it, ‘he’s not trying to win a beauty contest,’ so there’s no reason to pursue it.
“I’ve had many dogs over the years but Leedo is exceptional. He’s ridiculously well-behaved and was easy to train. Sometimes I feel as if rescues really are thankful and want you to know it,” says Beth, who also works in television.
