Pet of the Week

By Amber N. Yoo, HSSV Volunteer

I have someone very special for you to meet. His name is Leonardo. He is a 4-month old Dachshund/Terrier mix and he is very cute and cuddly. Check out this video introduction:



Here's the deal. HSSV needs your help to find Leonardo a home of his own. Look at this face ... how can you say no?


Every week, HSSV asks the community (you!) to help find one animal a home. This week it's Leonardo. So, get those paws ready ...


And Share, Share, Share! See that row of tiny buttons at the bottom of this blog post? Press them to email this post to a friend, blog about Leonardo yourself, Tweet all about him, and post him to your Facebook wall.

Done already? Okay, now go to Leonardo's YouTube video, "Like" it and share it with your friends.

What? Leonardo's puppy eyes made you melt and you want to really go the distance? Here's one idea that will get you a lifetime of thank yous from all the staff at HSSV: print out as many copies of Leonardo's adoption flyer as you want and post them at your local coffee shops, library, work, hangout ... basically anywhere that has a community board or flyers displayed.

With all of us pitching in to help little Leonardo, some deserving family is sure to hear about him. When they do, tell them to head over to Humane Society Silicon Valley in Milpitas or click here to learn about the adoption process.

P.S. Remember Tina? She was the last Pet of the Week and now she's in a home of her own!
