Do you own a pooch that's the proverbial "pavement special", is ugly to boot, and yet has a regal bearing which outshines your costly cosseted pedigreed Afghan? I'll bet you 10 to 1 that your Heinz 57 variety is a Leo. You see, the Leo mutt sees himself as the king of all dogs and knows that he is wonderful. Forget the silly notion that your home is your castle, in reality it's your conceited Leo's palace. Didn't you notice that the first time you brought him home, he made a beeline for your chair, claimed it as his throne and has only moved from it under duress ever since?
If you want to win a prize at your local dog show then undoubtedly your best chance lies with a Leo (tho' nothing short of supreme champion at Crufts will truly satiate his ego). His sense of showmanship can actually rival Liberace in his hey day, so for heaven's sake ensure that he looks like a dog's dinner before the great event. Watch the swaggers as he hits the parade ring, see his theatrical posing whilst in the coveted limelight - watch him deflate like a pricked balloon when he only wins second prize!
There must be some redeeming features about Leo dogs, I hear you saying. Of course there are; they are absolutely wonderful with Children... that is as long as you give them as much attention as the kids.
Best Owners: Only folks with egos bigger that Leos would ever attempt it. Stand up all you Ariens & Sagittarians.
