About Louie

Meet Louie! Louie is a young, playful, and charming Schnauzer/Yorkie mix, eager to learn and grow with the right person. At 1 year old, he weighs around 20 pounds and is looking for a home where he can thrive with patience and guidance. This little guy does great with cats, though he may be a bit too curious sometimes; a gentle reminder of boundaries is typically all he needs. Louie gets along wonderfully with other dogs, showcasing his cuddly and affectionate nature. While he needs some practice with leash walking, he has a strong willingness to improve, making him a wonderful candidate for training. He loves car rides and travels quietly, but he’ll need to learn to stay in his own space during the journey. Currently, he’s making strides with potty training, but consistency will help him grow more confident. Louie isn't much of a barker unless he’s left alone in a crate, so a standalone home might be best for him. This affectionate pup is full of potential, just waiting for someone to invest a little time into his training. Could Louie be the right addition to your family? Adoption fee is $350.
