Lady Lou

Geez, Louise! This petite brindle beauty is Louise. Louise is housetrained and is learning to walk well on leash . . . pulling a little, but getting better all the time. Louise listens intensely to her people and is eager to please and motivated by treats. She knows sit, wait and no; and is working on, come, off, lay down, back up, off, and leave it. Louise enjoys hard plastic chew toys and her foster mom bought a collection of Nylabones, special for her. If no one wants to play, Louise will happily entertain herself by dropping or tossing her toys and pouncing on them. Louise is fearful of sudden loud noises and reacts by jumping, crouching and looking for reassurance from her person. Louise plays well with dogs her own size or larger, with whom she is submissively playful and respectfully reads social cues. But, those other pests, I mean, "pets" also known as "cats or small animals . . ." Louise is best not living with them. Little Louise loves her Lilliputians (children). She needs to be reminded to be gentle, but she is really very sweet: inviting them to play, accepting their patting and giving them love and kisses. Louise is happy to have big people play with her too. Sometimes she will invite play by nibbling on her people, and she needs reminders to use more appropriate methods.

Louise sleeps in her crate at bedtime, and when her people are out. Louise is not vocal or whiney, but when she does let out a bark, the sound is so adorable that it evokes laughter. Louise has not exhibited any issues around food, but also has not been "tested," as she and her pack are routinely fed separately. She certainly has no problem with people sticking their hands inside her dish when she is eating. Louise is adoringly called "Lou Lou" by her foster family. She has a happy-go-lucky personality, is easily corrected and loves pleasing her people. Louise's foster mom admits that, while she has enjoyed all of her fosters, that Louise has become her favorite. She tells us, she will be sad to let her go, but Louise deserves the best family possible. And, with just a little bit of training, Louise will be a fantastic dog for almost any family.


Louise is a 30lb 2-year-old female Pit-bull. She is spayed, vaccinated and micro-chipped. An application with references, a home visit, and an adoption fee are required to adopt Louise. Reply to this posting for.
