MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A gentle dog named Louie is looking for a forever home through Miami-Dade Animal Services after being rescued from a hoarding situation earlier this year.
According to Miami-Dade Animal Services, Louie arrived at the shelter in February along with several other dogs that had been living together in overcrowded conditions.
Staff members describe the 2 to 3-year-old mixed-breed dog as sweet, affectionate and easygoing around both people and other animals.
Shelter workers say Louie enjoys attention — especially belly and back scratches — and has earned positive reviews for his calm demeanor while waiting for adoption.
Those interested in adopting Louie or another pet can attend the Florida Mega Pet Adoption Event on Saturday at TY Park in Broward County.
Miami-Dade Animal Services, Broward County Animal Care, the Humane Society of Broward County and the Humane Society of Greater Miami will participate in the event, where adoption fees are expected to be waived.
