Louie- adopted

Update 9/1/07: After such a long wait at his shelter in Arkansas, it is Louie's turn to come to New England. What a GREAT BOY at 27 pounds and full of love. The woman that did the transport just LOVED him, she said he is such a sweetie. He is currently in foster care and as we get to know Louie, we will update his bio. Welcome to Maine Louie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Louie is approx. 1 1/2 years old in these pictures taken August 29, 2007 at our partner shelter in Arkansas. He has been at the shelter since September 2006. Louie is a loving boy but he is a little shy at first. He loves playing with toys and other dogs. Louie gets along with every dog he has come in contact with and is just a little lover. Just a SUPER dog.

Update: 7/30/07: From the shelter: Louie is about 1 - 1 1/2 years old and a Terrier mix, so he is going to have some energy. We have never seen him be dominate towards another dog or people. I would say he doesn't weigh over 20 pounds.

Like his bio says, Louie is a little shy at first, but he soon gets over it. He loves to play with toys and other dogs. Loves people. He does need work on a leash though.

Louie is approx. 4 - 6 months old in these pictures taken October 10, 2006. He was found in Bentonville, Arkansas the first of the month and is currently in an Arkansas shelter. Louie is a loving boy but he is a little shy at first. He loves playing with toys. Since he is a stray, nothing more is known about Louie. Applications can be found at www.almosthomerescue.net
