Meet Louie

Breed: Fox Terrier

Barking from: Wellington

What's up dog?

Louie has a huge impact on the people around him and especially myself. Louie always lights up the room with his cheeky personality and crazy tricks, hes always putting a smile on faces and makes people laugh. We practice tricks on my lunch breaks when I work from home, it strengthens our bond and clears my head so I am refreshed and ready to get back to work, His best one is rebound where he jumps up and rebounds off me. He is and advance trick dog so knows a variety of tricks from roll over to figures of eighties through my legs. He likes to sleep on my feets while I work and will alert me to any visitors I may not hear with a headset on. When Im feeling down or stressed, hes always there for a cuddle and when Im sick he wont leave my side. He helps me create a healthy work life balance, we go on walks after I finish work to clear my head which really helps me feel like I can seperate home from work and create a healthy balance. Louie is my top dog and I couldnt have been more blessed to have such an awesome loyal companion.
