Louis

This lovely boy is a sweet, sensitive soul looking for a calm, patient home where he can continue to grow in confidence. He’s already shown how beautifully he can settle indoors and really comes into his own when he has people around him. A garden would be a great help as he continues his housetraining, and with gentle routines and gradual practice, he’s sure to make fantastic progress. He’ll need time left to be built up slowly, and he’s best suited to a pet-free home. Out on walks he can be a little unsure, but he’s eager to try and responds brilliantly to tasty treats and reassurance. He walks nicely on a harness and is happiest exploring quiet areas or open fields where he has plenty of space to relax. Although worried by traffic, people and dogs, he’s shown real potential—especially indoors, where he’s been friendly, settled and keen to bond. He’s an affectionate lad who enjoys gentle fuss, loves his toys and is very tolerant with handling and grooming. Playful, intelligent and keen to connect, he’s the kind of dog who will flourish once he feels safe and understood. With the right family by his side, he has every chance to blossom into a loyal and loving companion.
