Meet Leroy – A Gentle Giant Ready for His Second Chance
Leroy is a handsome 6-year-old male Lab mix, weighing approximately 85 lbs, who is now officially available for adoption after completing his stray hold at the Rockwall Adoption Center. He was found on Lake Estates Drive in Rockwall on 11/18/25 wearing a collar and with an unregistered microchip, but sadly, no owner ever came forward.
Leroy is a sweet, calm, and gentle soul who has quickly captured the hearts of staff and volunteers. Despite his large size, he has wonderful manners and truly enjoys human companionship. His easygoing, affectionate nature makes him an absolute joy to be around, and he would thrive in a calm, loving home.
Medical Disclosure
During recent diagnostic imaging related to Leroy’s right leg, our veterinary team observed findings that may be consistent with cardiomyopathy. At this time, this is a suspected condition based on X-rays, and further cardiac evaluation will be recommended for his adopter to determine long-term management and care.
Leroy will benefit from a family who is willing to:
-
Provide continued veterinary follow-up
-
Monitor his activity level as advised by a veterinarian
-
Offer him a calm, stable, and loving home
Leroy also tested heartworm positive, but thanks to the lifesaving support of Rockwall PAWS, his heartworm treatment is fully sponsored and can begin immediately. If you have any questions about heartworms or Leroy’s treatment, our staff will be happy to help.
Despite these medical concerns, Leroy remains a happy, affectionate boy who simply wants a safe place to land and a family to love him.
How You Can Help
Leroy’s medical care—including diagnostics, heartworm treatment, and future cardiac evaluation—comes at a significant cost. Donations in his honor directly support his ongoing care and help other medically vulnerable pets receive the treatment they desperately need. Every dollar truly makes a difference.
