You know those dogs that have one feature that's so adorable you can't help but laugh every time you look at them? For Lou Loomie, it's definitely the ears. They're hilariously oversized, somehow seem bigger than the rest of him, and give him the cutest, goofiest expression. But as funny as they are, they have some pretty serious competition because the moment you start petting this sweet boy, he completely melts into you. Between his giant ears, affectionate personality, and easygoing nature, Lou is the kind of dog that's incredibly easy to fall in love with.
Lou Loomie is believed to be a Lab/Aussie mix approximately 5 months old and currently weighs about 30lbs. He is a rescue dog, and with any rescue, it's always a mystery, and we cannot guarantee breed or age.
Ideal Home
Lou would do best in a home with experienced dog owners who understand the importance of consistency and boundaries. He would also love a home with a backyard where he can stretch his legs, enjoy the fresh air, and spend time exploring. A semi-active family that enjoys getting out and about but also appreciates a relaxing evening at home would be a wonderful match for him.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions were mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
Lou is doing really well with potty training and is successful about 85% of the time. He benefits from getting outside a little more frequently than an adult dog would. Keeping him on a consistent schedule has helped him be very successful. He absolutely loves treats, which makes him a fantastic candidate for training, as he is eager, food-driven, and ready to work for those rewards. Lou is also crate trained. He will protest for a few minutes when you first leave, but he settles down nicely. Continuing crate training will be important for him as he thrives with structure, routine, and clear expectations.
