Meet Louie – The Little Guy with a Big Heart & a Brighter Future
Hi, I’m Louie! I’m about 10 months old, around 30 lbs, and just starting to discover that the world isn’t as scary as I once thought it was. I came to The Pittie Project PNW from our partner shelter in Oklahoma. It’s believed I came from a pretty overwhelming hoarding situation, and when I first arrived, I was very shut down. It actually took a full week before my foster mom (who also happens to be the head trainer!) could touch me—but she knew I needed a safe space and time to decompress. Thanks to her and my amazing helper dog, I’ve been learning how to trust, play, and just be a dog. I’ve really started to blossom! I’m silly, playful, and love other dogs—especially ones who are confident and can show me the ropes. I need another playful, steady dog in my forever home to help me continue building my confidence. I’ve got striking husky-like eyes and a goofy little voice when I want to “talk,” so I might have some husky or border collie in there too. What I am for sure is unique, adorable, and ready to start fresh.
Ideal Home
I need space, structure, and a family that understands I might take a little while to warm up—but once I do, I’m all in. No apartments or unfenced yards for me, please, as I can be a bit nervous and love to zoom. I need another playful, steady dog in my forever home to help me continue building my confidence.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions were mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
I’m still figuring out what a leash is all about and learning crate training, but I’m a smart little guy and picking it up fast! Because I can be a bit nervous, a family that understands I might take a little while to warm up is essential.
