Description:

Meet Lou!

Lou is a beautiful boy and just as sweet and friendly. He didn't have a foster home when he arrived and is in an emergency foster home. It sure would be great if he could find a place to settle in. He needs someone who can keep him safe while we look for his forever home.

Lou can jump fences. He may be looking for a way to go home or he may just have a touch of wnderlust. He will need a place where his people will keep him secure when he is outside. he is great on a leash and doesn't pull or try to run - so he could be ok without a fenced yard if a person were willing to keep him on surpervised tie out for potty times or just take him out on leash.

His current foster home has a doggie door and several other dogs - so poor Lou is having to be confined to the kennel to keep him from leaving through the doggie door and jumping the fence!

He does fine crated - no barking or anxiety or acting up. We don't think he is enjoying being in the kennel all the time - he likes to be up and moving around.

His foster said he is good natured and has a very sweet temperament.

Could you be the person who can help Lou settle in and get ready for a good home!?

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
