Story
🩷 Rescue Story
Louis was rescued from the euthanasia list at "Jeongeup Shelter" in South Korea. After receiving proper medical care, including completion of heartworm treatment, he was moved into a foster home where he has been able to relax, feel safe, and show his gentle, affectionate nature.
🌿 Temperament & Behavior
Louis is a sensitive and sweet dog who prefers calm environments. He does not enjoy overly energetic dogs, regardless of size. He may do well with another low-energy dog who shows little interest in him, but he is also well-suited to being the only dog in the home.
With people, sudden movements—such as hands raised quickly or abrupt approaches—can be frightening for him, and this is currently being worked on through training. However, when his name is called or someone sits calmly and invites him over, Louis approaches on his own, happily cuddles up, and showers them with affection. He has no history of biting or barking at people and genuinely likes human company.
His compatibility with cats has not yet been tested.
🚶 Walking & Daily Life
Louis truly loves going on walks. He may start out slightly excited at the beginning, but as the walk continues, he settles down and walks nicely while matching his handler’s pace. He handles stairs well and, while traffic noises can make him a bit nervous, he does not panic or try to flee.
He enjoys sniffing during walks and does not scavenge or pick up food from the ground.
His shedding level is moderate, about 5 out of 10.
He has no food allergies and eats well without being picky.
🏡 Habits & Training
Louis uses indoor pee pads reliably (100%) and also goes potty outdoors about 85% of the time.
He accepts baths and brushing calmly without resistance.
He does not have separation anxiety and is comfortable staying alone.
He is generally quiet and does not bark, though he may softly whine for a short moment when he is extremely excited or waiting for meals.
He rides well in the car and does not appear to experience motion sickness.
💛 Likes & Personality
Louis is not particularly interested in toys. Rather than high-energy play, he prefers resting quietly on his own or staying close to his person. He finds comfort in human presence and enjoys peaceful companionship.
He is currently living in a foster home.
