About Louie
Hi, I'm Louie. I'm a petite 9 month old male border collie who loves to snuggle with my people.
I would suit a family with young children or a senior person as I'm very calm and gentle and I don't get underfoot or over excited and I am happy to share food and toys with anyone. I love to be inside laying on the couch with the family going about life around me and don't react to busyness of a family home. A home with another dog of any size would be a bonus as I love to play.
I'm a very calm boy who is not very confident in new situations but willing to try anything for a kind word and cuddle from my people. My foster family has 4 children under 10 years and 4 other dogs and I love to be involved in play with little people and dogs but can be a bit shy with adults at first.
I have been exposed to the big farm that my foster family works on but find I prefer the security of the smaller rural property where they live with a couple acres to explore with the other dogs. I love going on walks with the security of the lead and my people guiding me exploring new sights and sounds.
I have very basic training and I am learning my new commands slowly but I need patience because I worry that I'm in trouble and get nervous, so need time to trust my people before I can do training exercises. I am still working on toilet training, but otherwise I am great inside, and good with farm fences or quiet being in dog run.
I am ready so please fill out the application questionnaire so I can come and be your bestest boy with your children.
Medical notes
One of Louie's eyes did not develop fully and as a result he has a flat lense and slow pupil response resulting in his vision out of that one eye is only directly in front.
As he was born this way, he knows no different.
It does not affect is day to day life in normal circumstances.
