K24 Gorgeous Ginger Kid Louie! (Red Staffy Boy)

[jellitot]

Prepare to fall head over heels with this fiiiiine specimen!

Louie was handed over to the home today, through no fault of his own, he is fully vaxed so can go out for walkies as of tomorrow. (Get in there quick walkers this boy is awesome!)

This boy is a loving staffy gent, who is full of fun! He was excited to be out of his kennel and wanted to sniff everything .He loves treats and toys....he does a wonderful sit and the occasional paw for both!

I cant see this boy sticking around long...especially as he is very gifted in the looks department!

Sure I'll sit for a treat...

Omg PATE!

Cant wait to hear walkers tales on this kid!

Louie Is available for rehoming from the 17th October after he has had his vet check. If you would like more info on him, Please phone the Dog's Home: 029 2071 1243 or visit Cardiff Dogs' Home, Westpoint Industrial Estate, Penarth Road, Open 7 days a week 10.30 - 4pm. Mon/Thurs till 6pm.

Hi all!

We took Louie out today - my goodness what a bundle of fun and energy this little lad is! 

He is such a cute dut, and a beautiful colour, with a big smiley face - who can't help but fall a little bit in love! However, he needs training - this lad has got the brains, the enthusiasm and, being a youngster, the energy for it   He is so keen to please, but needs some boundaries and to know what's acceptable and what isn't. I'm not sure how old he is, but in human years I reckon he's hit the toddler two's! 

We were out onto the Ely trail at breakneck speed, and Louie was keen to say hello to us and everyone else - he is quite strong on the lead, and this doesn't really let up! If you're looking for a leisurely stroll with a doggy pal, this boy is not it - he's keen, eager and excited!
He is very keen to socialise with other dogs, but doesn't know how to yet - he wants to play, but was also easily distracted by a treat, or a whistle to keep us on our way.

Once we got to our half way mark (the first bench), he did calm as we sat and all had refreshments; he was also well mannered, and waited for us to finish before I had a paw on my knee, and those big beautiful staffy eyes were looking at me, nose twitching and a huge 'smile'!! Ok, ok, let's see if you'll sit - he did, and he was rewarded 

Louie was brilliant around the girls (2.5yrs and 4yrs) and remained still long enough to let them stroke him. He was also happy to wait for them if we walked on ahead, whilst they caught up.

Louie is a great boy, and really needs someone who is willing to put time and patience into training him and setting the rules/boundaries - I think if you did that he would be an absolute ace dog!

Swan watching, although Louie wasn't that fussed...


Having our half way refreshments :-)


Showing what a smart boy he is with a perfect sit...


Louie is a striking colour, and such a handsome face - he's also a dinky-dut!

What a brilliant and really helpful entry!! I don't think this boy will be around for long - he looks fab!

Hi.  I am interested in Louie.  We have actually adopted a dog previously, but can you tell me the process involved with you in relation to the adoption process before I take my interest further.

Thank you!

[RaMc]

If you're interested in a dog then you would need to go to the home to meet them and put in an application.  The home accepts up to 3 applications for each dog and will then look at all the applications to decide which household seems to be the most appropriate for that particular dog.  

Depending on where you live you might need a home check prior to rehoming and if you are in rented accommodation they will want a copy of the written agreement/letter of permission from your landlord allowing you to keep pets.

You would also need to introduce ALL members of the household to the dog you wish to rehome - partners/children/dogs/cats.  

You can ring the home for more info, they'll be able to tell you whether a dog has any applications on them already or not. Or you can just pop down and speak to them and have a wander around to see some of the dogs and/or take one out for a short walk if you are interested in them.

I took the lovely Louie out for the first time this weekend and was absolutely smitten
I found he didn't pull at all unless passing another dog, he wanted to say hi! He was a very friendly boy, I'd love to see him introduced to another pooch, he seemed like he would love a little garden play time!
He is on the small side for a staffy but has the classic staffy loving attitude!


He also wanted to roll in the bushes ! Don't know why but he loved it! Haha




Had a great time walking Louie, he was the perfect gent and pretty amusing too!

Took this hansome boy for his morning walk today and we had loads of fun with him showing me his best roll over and nearly falling asleep when I tickled his belly

We saw Louis in his kennel the other day and he was much smaller than we were expecting. He made us laugh by turning around and pressing himself against the bars so we could fuss him, he seems to enjoy a good back scratch! We took him out for a walk yesterday and he is such a lovely boy, he was so happy to be out and about exploring! He is a young dog so does pull a bit and gets a little excitable, but the way he sits instantly as soon as you reach for your pocket suggests he will be easy to train! I hope this handsome boy doesn't have to wait long for his new family, he is a little cracker!

Here he is doing a perfect sit for a treat:

Little Louie has found his forever family

Be good for your new peeps Louie!
