Meet Louie! Two months old and currently weighing just 4 pounds, this handsome boy is as sweet as sugar and already carries himself like a little old soul. As the firstborn of his litter, Louie has a calm, thoughtful nature. He enjoys playing with his siblings and is curious about the bigger dogs in his foster home, approaching them respectfully without overwhelming them. He has a gentle confidence that makes him incredibly special.
Louie is a true "super mutt" with a wonderfully diverse DNA mix! His lineage includes American Staffordshire Terrier, American Pit Bull Terrier, Siberian Husky, German Shepherd Dog, Labrador Retriever, Chow Chow, Australian Cattle Dog, Poodle (Toy & Miniature), American Cocker Spaniel, Chihuahua, Golden Retriever, Pomeranian, Alaskan Malamute, Australian Shepherd, Border Collie, Mastiff, Boxer, Rottweiler, Doberman Pinscher, Boston Terrier, Keeshond, Maltese, and Lhasa Apso.
With such an incredible mix, Louie's adult size is truly anyone's guess! Momma Shiloh weighs just 25 pounds, so if Louie takes after some of the smaller breeds in his DNA like Poodle, Pomeranian, Chihuahua, Maltese, or Lhasa Apso, he may stay on the smaller side. If he leans more toward his Shepherd, Husky, Retriever, or other working-breed relatives, he could grow into a medium or possibly larger-sized dog. At 4 pounds right now, we'll just have to watch and see how this sweet boy grows!
Personality-wise, Louie may inherit intelligence and loyalty from his Shepherd and working-breed lineage. His Retriever and Spaniel genes may bring friendliness and eagerness to please, while his terrier and guardian-breed background could contribute to his steady confidence. His companion-breed mix may add that affectionate, people-focused sweetness we're already seeing. Louie is just beginning potty training and will need continued patience and consistency as he learns. With structure, love, and positive reinforcement, he has all the potential to become a devoted, well-rounded companion.
Louie would thrive in a home with other dogs or as a cherished solo companion. An active family and/or a yard where he can explore, play, and go on adventures would be a wonderful fit for him. Louie will be ready for his forever home on March 7th, and applications are being accepted now.
