Katie and Leo had a long-standing friendship. Katie was distressed to learn that Tina had passed away, leaving Leo alone with his sadness. Canon, Tina’s son, was on active sea duty far away from home, so Katie was concerned about Leo’s well-being.
When Katie got home, she discovered that Leo had climbed into her car and refused to let her go. So, in the hopes of Canon returning from his job soon, she decided to adopt him. Leo’s laid-back attitude made him quickly bond with the other dogs in Katie’s family at his new home. He rapidly grew an intimate part of their family.
