Louise - Labrador Retriever and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in West Peoria, Illinois

Hello, my name is Louise! I am a beautiful 9 week old lab/shepherd mix puppy. I am a very sweet and loving chocolate girl with a white chest who should be 60-80 pounds when grown. I am working hard on potty training but I am still a baby and will need more time and guidance to learn to potty outside consistently. I love to play with toys and play outside with the other dogs in my foster home. I love a good cuddle session too!

Louise is spayed, microchipped, had 1st vaccine, and is on flea and heartworm preventions. Her adoption fee is $300, please apply at gfrpets.org/apply.
