About Louise

Meet Louise, a 12-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix weighing around 40 pounds. She's seeking a quieter home to enjoy her golden years, away from the hustle and bustle of young children. In her previous life, she thrived with dogs, cats, and kids, but these days, she craves a calm and peaceful environment. Louise has a strong herding instinct, which has led her to get a bit bossy with an energetic 5-year-old in her current home. Her family recognizes that she would be much happier somewhere more serene. This independent and protective girl is relatively quiet, only barking to alert you when someone knocks. After that, she settles down on her dog bed. Louise is quite spry for her age; she can still manage stairs, enjoys leisurely walks, hikes, and a good game of fetch. She's leash trained and knows her commands like sit, stay, and lay down. Rainy days are no problem; she has free run of the house and can be left alone for 5-6 hours. It's important to note that Louise can be nervous around other dogs and may bark or lunge when they approach, so she’ll do best with an owner who understands heelers and can help her feel secure. Cats, on the other hand, are hard for her to resist, so a cat-free home is necessary. Louise has a love for food and is currently on a low-fat diet. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who enjoys quiet walks and calm companionship, Louise could be the perfect fit. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
