About Louie

Meet Louie. At just six months old, Louie is a striking Husky/Golden Retriever mix with a social, affectionate temperament and an undeniable need to run and play. His family originally adopted him as a tiny pup, and though he’s been adored, their lifestyle hasn’t been able to provide the steady companionship and activity this breed mix craves. Louie thrives when included in daily life, not left alone for hours. He’s friendly, eager for adventure, and his smart, high-spirited nature is obvious with every curious glance and wag. Louie will be happiest in a home where someone works remotely, is retired, or simply has the presence and flexibility to keep him both mentally and physically active—a household ready for dog park runs, games, and adventures. He gets along well with other dogs and children, making him an easy fit for playful families looking for a loyal, energetic companion to be part of daily routines. His adoption includes microchip, vaccinations, deworming, and continued flea and heartworm prevention. Louie is not searching for the "perfect" adopters—just the ones willing to meet his joyful energy and include him in their lives. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
