Luigi's Story

Hi! I'm Luigi. You can see some of my sweet skills on my Insta: https://www.instagram.com/btownfoster_luigi<br/><br/>This sweet boy was found abandoned with his buddy Mario. Since then, Luigi has been coming out of his shell more each day. He's shy at first, but once he warms up, this "lap dog' will show you just how much love he has to give (hint: it's a lot of love).<br/><br/>Here's what his foster family has to say: Luigi is a great dog. He's a champion snuggler and a real velcro dog. He follows us so closely that he gives us "flat tires" in our slippers. But he also knows how to read the room -- he gets along really well with our old cranky dog and knows when to give her space. He's shown no signs of guarding his people, food, or toys. His high food motivation and intelligence makes training a breeze. Luigi really enjoys getting his commands right and hearing "good boi!" He knows "sit", "stay", and "leave it". We are working on reliable recall and walking at heel. On walks, Luigi doesn't pull -- he prefers to chug along at a steady pace, sniffing and checking his pee-mails. He's solidly muzzle trained, which every vet and nail trimmer will appreciate. Luigi is reliably house-trained and crate-tolerant. When we need to leave, we give him a frozen, stuffed kong and he's content to work on that. At night, he sleeps quietly at the foot of the bed on his mat. All in all, he's an easy dog that loves a routine and to be around his people. <br/><br/>If you are looking for your very own entourage with an adorable underbite, "Weejee" your boy!<br/><br/>**Luigi is part of our Sit, Stay, Adopt! behavior program. For more information, please contact Emily Herr at herre@bloomington.in.gov.**
