Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Little Louie is our 'special needs' dog! Born and rescued one year ago after being rejected by his mother and left in the brutal sun . We took Louie home and nursed him through his first months. Today Louie is one year and has made great strides but still needs a home that care care and accommodate his needs. Louie is a dancer and we think his dad may have been part hyena because that boy can jump!!! Louie is environment and tactile sensitive but is learning how to accept cuddles !
There is no complete diagnosis on Louie but the vet feels there is a neurological impairment which effects his sight (depth perception) , balance and perception of his immediate space. Louies forever home must be safe for his activity and lack of self-protectiveness. Louie sees the vet on a yearly basis ... everything seems a go health-wise. He appears to be seizure free and is no longer on medication . Louie loves other dogs but because of his worldly deficits we suggest he not be in a home with a larger dog unless very, very mellow. Louie is paper trained but sometimes misses the target because of his sight. He uses the bathroom outside on a regular basis. He is create trained and sleeps in a crate at night.
Safety first for Little Louie..... to date his biggest accomplishment is conquering the stairs. He now uses stairs...... to some of us it's just a stair but to Little Louie it is Mt. Everest!!!! Louie is patiently awaiting the right home that can serve and protect him. His adoption fee is $200 which includes neuter, current shots and microchip. Home visit is required
