About Louie

Meet Louie, an adorable 5-year-old Yorkie weighing about 10 lbs. He’s a friendly little guy, perfect for someone with beginner dog ownership experience. This breed often fits well into family life and tends to be a nice companion with a moderate energy level. Louie enjoys a daily walk of around 60 minutes, along with some play and mental stimulation at home. He gets along with other dogs and is likely good with children, though supervision is always necessary. While we expect him to be mostly potty trained, he may have a few transitional accidents as he gets used to his new home. Louie is currently healthy, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. Though adjusted living conditions are still being monitored, Louie could adapt to city life with a careful introduction. This little pup is in a foster-to-adopt program, making it a great opportunity for anyone wanting to see how he acclimates to their home. Ready to meet Louie?
