Lou is a very sweet dog and wants to please. He is young and puppyish, so he will pick up the wrong things and chew on them (mostly paper) but he is very easily corrected. He is always trying to get your approval with eye contact as if he is asking "is this ok?" Just a "no" will stop him in his tracks. He loves pets and cuddles and is very social with people and dogs. He did ignore the barn cats, but seemed a little nervous around them. He would be great with kids.
He would really enjoy another dog to help him build confidence and play with, but he would be fine alone too. As a puppy he had not been trained and would benefit from obedience training that would also help his confidence. He would also do very well at daycare. He is a gentle player and does not enjoy super rough housing but does tolerate it.
He has not had any accidents in our house since he got here. I would not recommend an apartment setting because he does bark. He loves to chew on bones, but doesn't guard them.
He walks well on the leash but walks with his nose to the ground. He seems a little scared of loud noises and loud vehicles but not regular car traffic. He will need some desensitization to loud noises.
He is a medium energy dog. He loves to play fetch and brings it back but needs to learn to drop. He has an awesome recall in our fenced yard. He really wants to be with you. He has learned that there is only one couch and one bed that dogs are allowed on in our house and respects that he should only get on those two pieces of furniture. He has been a great dog in the house and learns quickly. He is such a sweet and gentle guy. He will be an awesome dog.
