Meet Lou – Your Playful Sunshine Companion! Hello, I’m Lou, a 2.6-year-old, 15-pound, long-haired golden Chihuahua/Dachshund mix with a heart full of love and a zest for life. About Me: • Neutered, fully vaccinated, and micro-chipped—I’m all set for my forever home. • Playful Personality: I adore playtime and have an energetic spirit that will keep you smiling. • Social Butterfly: I love my human friends and, with a gentle introduction, I get along well with other dogs too. My Favorites: • Sunbathing: There’s nothing like lounging in the sun, soaking up the warmth. • Long Walks: I enjoy exploring the neighborhood and would make a great walking buddy. • Crate Trained: I’m comfortable in my crate and have never had an accident in it. A Little About My Past: I’ve spent most of my life outdoors until a kind rescue brought me in. I’m eager to learn and would appreciate your guidance with potty training, especially in understanding how to signal when I need to go outside. Ideal Home: While I love my brother Pete, we’ve realized that we might thrive better individually. I’m looking for a loving family who can provide me with attention, playtime, and patience as I adjust to indoor living.
