About Louie
Hello,
I'm Louie, I'm 5 year old staffy, I love to play with indestructible toys, run around the garden, and have cuddles with gentle humans. I'd love a family that has secure fencing, lots of time to play and walk with me!
Unfortunately my foster mum and dad are moving overseas and are looking for a kind and loving family to adopt me.
I've been living with my family for three years now and have healed significantly from a rough start in life. My foster parents say I have a beautiful and cheeky nature and I love licking, sleeping, eating and cuddling all the time! I also love to swim!!
I would like to find my forever home where I can relax on the couch and snooze all day. I'm an indoor dog, but also like sniffing and hiding bones in the yard and sun baking! I love human company and to the right family, will give a whole lottah love.
I'm best in quiet spaces and preferably would suit a couple or a couple with adult children. Sometimes I'm silly and don't know my own size and will jump in excitement so probably not suitable for small kids. I'd like a home where I have company at least a couple days a week and can lounge inside all the time, so a family where someone is working from home would be suitable.
I can become anxious with loud noises but bringing me on a walk helps me calm down always. I get along well with other dogs, however due to a rough start in life sometimes don't get doggy social cues and can get jumpy. My foster parents take me off the lead sometimes to play with bigger dogs but I need to be on the lead with smaller dogs because i'm made of muscle!
I'm on antidepressants which help me stay calm and happy and i'd like to continue these. I can be anxious around new people and might need some time to warm up but if you're nice to me I will love you forever!
I'm desexed, up to date with vaccinations and microchipped. My foster parents would love to arrange to meet to see if i'd be suitable to your home :)
If you have lots of space in your home and a kind heart please send an email to jamesr2008@gmail.com with a bit about yourself/living environment etc and we can arrange a time to catch up.
Love Louie :)
