Story: Louie and his sister Daisy were rescued from a shelter in South Carolina. We are so happy to have him safe and sound in a foster home in the DC area now. Louie is a happy sweetie who loves people and gets along great with other dogs and puppies. He knows just how to get comfortable up on the couch with his humans, and will love to join you on walks and trots around the neighborhood. Louie is just looking for someone to be his new best furend and we know that he will repay them with endless amounts of love and tail wags. Like all dogs, Louie will need an adopter who is committed to setting him up for success by enrolling in obedience training and exercising him both mentally and physically. He will also need love, patience, and socialization in order to thrive!
What my Foster Says:
Louie and Daisy love being outdoors and playing with each other in the yard. And they also love curling up with one another for nap time. Both are learning how to walk on a leash. They love other dogs, they embraced my dog immediately wanting to play and curl up with her.
Also very good with cats, they're not overly interested in them much at all and in some cases give them wide berth. Both are food motivated and smart, they tackled stairs today and are slowly exploring the house.
Crate is good, they will go in and out and sleep there without issue. Housebreaking they are still working on!
Louie is a happy boy, he's inquisitive and playful. He greets people immediately. Loves to play tug, chase balls, and play with his sister. He also wants to cuddle on your lap as much as possible. Louie is more confident as he learns to walk on a leash but is also super fond of the fenced yard.
The fee to adopt Louie is $450. That covers the cost of all his vaccines, the collar he’s wearing, his transport to DC and his care in his foster home. He’s up to date on all age appropriate vaccines. Louie has been seen by a shelter vet and was given a clean bill of health.
