American Bully and American Bulldog Dogs Available for Adoption in Wake Forest, North Carolina

Name / Breed / Age: Louie (aka Louie Meatball McSnorty), Mixed Breed, Puppy

Personality Traits: Velcro pup, Professional comedian, Snuggly and stubborn

Likes / Dislikes: Loves being with his people, snuggles on demand, following you everywhere (bathroom included, privacy is a myth now) / Dislikes being left to his own devices for too long — he prefers a “where are we going and can I come?” lifestyle

Health and behavior history: Up to date on vaccines, dewormed, microchipped and neutered. Louie had a previous medical issue that has been fully treated, and he has a clean bill of health from the PIPs vet. He does have some peripheral vision limitations, but it doesn't slow him down — he learns his space quickly and gets around just fine. He's also working on potty training and making great progress.

The Louie Experience:

Louie Meatball McSnorty is exactly as ridiculous and lovable as his name suggests. With his signature underbite and big personality, he's basically a cartoon character that came to life. He's equal parts comedian and cuddle bug, with a strong belief that personal space is optional and snuggles are mandatory.

He's the definition of a velcro dog — if you move, he moves. If you stop, he stops. If you turn around too fast... you may trip over him. (He considers this a bonding activity.)

Louie is smart, a little stubborn, and very into being included in whatever you're doing. He'll thrive in a home where someone is around most of the day — whether that's working from home or just a routine that includes him in the action. He's not looking for a “see you after work” situation... he's more of a “what are we doing together today?” kind of guy.
