My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Louie, a fun-loving and curious pup who's ready to find his forever home! Louie is a great walking buddy-he's good on a leash and enjoys being out and about. While he can be a little reactive to squirrels, he's easily redirected and stays focused on his walk. When it comes to car rides, Louie is a pro-he jumps in and out with ease and settles down during trips, content to watch the world go by. Occasionally, he'll nudge your shoulder with his nose, just to remind you he's there and enjoying the ride.

At home, Louie is just as playful and endearing. He loves exploring the backyard, especially when it involves chasing balls, although he tends to chew on them rather than bring them back. He's a strong chewer, so tough toys are a must to keep him entertained. Louie takes treats gently and is polite when it comes to food-he knows "sit and will happily show you if there's a tasty treat involved. When it comes to food, Louie has a few favorites: he loves meatballs, pup cups, and bacon-flavored froyo. However, peanut butter isn't his thing, so you can leave that off his snack list.

Louie also enjoys a little downtime and, when invited, will happily curl up on the couch for a nap. He appears to be house-trained as well, walking toward the door to ask to be let out into the backyard. With his affectionate nature, playful energy, and great house manners, Louie is ready to join a family who can offer him the love, attention, and routine he craves. If you're looking for a sweet, active pup to share your life with, Louie could be the perfect companion.
