How bad am I



LOL Mr. Louie has been here a whole week and I haven't posted a picture of him. Well here he is. While we are pretty sure that he is part rottie, I'm just not sure about what the other part is. And pictures, well, they don't show this wonderful boy in his best light.

These were taken just after he came to us and he still wasn't very happy. Oh my, how that has changed. Louie is a great boy, loves to play, go for long walks, and finally loves his food. Good thing too cause this boy is on several meds for all his conditions. None of the life threatening but all of them uncomfortable for him.

Louie is easy in many ways. His leash manners are coming along and he knows that he only gets fed if he sits nicely and waits for his food. He has learned the drop it command and knows that if he drops what he has, he is rewarded with something wonderful. Sometimes thats food, but other times its toys and play. All of these are things that motivate Louiel.

He has a wonderful temperment and will allow you to do most things to him without much fuss. This unfortuantely does not include bathing. And thats too bad cause he gets one once a week. Picture 2 grown adults trying to bath 50 lbs of squirming puppy, both humans covered in shampoo and drenched to the bone. But bathe him we do.
