More about Louie D6171

Little Bitty Louie is an Austrialian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) mixed with Miniature American Shepherd. He seems to have gotten all of his physical traits from the Heeler except his size! He was born approximately 6/9/2025, so he is still young but fully grown at about 20 pounds. Louie says this means he is snuggle-size! If you are familiar with heelers, you probably know that they can have a bit of a spicy attitude. Louie's foster home has dubbed him "Midwest Spicy" - if you are accustomed to high energy and intense dogs, Louie would not seem very spicy at all. But he is still a cattle dog, and he needs someone who understands that he thinks life is a full-contact sport and many things need to be barked about.   Louie is house trained, crate trained, and loves other dogs. He is reported as being fine with cats (ignores them) and would likely be fine with children, depending on ages and appropriate boundary setting.   This boy is highly trainable and loves food, toys, and activities. He always wants to be either snuggling or doing fun things with his human. Louie is no couch potato, but after a decent amount of exercise or mental stimulation he is good at just hanging out. He would love to find a home that takes him on adventures or does fun training/dog sports with him.
