Hello and Welcome!!  ;D

Kate is so cute.  You simply can't resist a Leonberger.

Welcome Kelly and Kate,
Kelly is a cute little ball of fur.

I am in Oregon with Dakota, a four year old Newf/Lab mix and my Leo, Jade. Jade will be a year old on Monday.

Can I ask who the breeder is?

I look forward to seeing more pictures of Kate.

Hello all!  Thanks to everyone for all of your warm welcomes - appreciated!

DakotaMom - that was too funny!  As long as my hubby doesn't call me 'furry', I guess I'm alright!  LOL! 

Here is another photo of Kate.  She is growing so fast!  AND - she has recently learned how to climb baby gates - so we need to come up with a better plan to keep her off the stairs.  Any suggestions anyone?  We live in a 4-level split, and she LOVES to follow us everywhere.  Stairs concern me, we've done a great job containing her until yesterday when she figured out how to 'climb'!  I don't know how much longer we'll be able to keep carrying her up & down, she is getting so big...

You all have such beautiful dogs!  I love ALL dogs, any dog - PERIOD.  I live in Airdrie, AB (just outside of Calgary)...

Hi LaurelGrove,

Thanks!  Ya, I don't think Florida would be the best spot for a Leo, BUT there is lots of water (so) you never know!

No, I'm not trying to keep her from anything - it was the breeders' suggestion.  Apparently climbing stairs when they are this young can cause problems later in life?  Thing is - when we brought Kate home - she climbed them right away (she already knew how - we didn't have to teach her).  So, as per the breeders' suggestion - we blocked our stairs with baby gates (and now) she's climbing those!

For such a giant breed - Leo's sure are agile!

Oooh, I love that pic.

I've heard about the stairs causing problems, too, but most of the people I've talked to have said that's a bunch of hooey.
