Luigi's Story

This sweet boy was found abandoned with his buddy Mario. Since then, Luigi has been working hard to build confidence and he's coming out of his shell more each day. He's shy at first, but once he warms up, this 75-pound lap dog will show you just how much love he has to give.<br/><br/>Here's what his foster family has to say: Luigi is a great dog. He's a champion snuggler who 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 food motivation makes training a breeze, and he already knows sit while we work on stay and leave it.<br/>On walks, Luigi doesn't pull -- he prefers to chug along at a steady pace, sniffing and checking his pee-mails. He's well on his way to being muzzle trained, which is great for taking a big dog to the vet. Luigi is reliably house-trained and crate-trained. When we need to leave, we give him a frozen, stuffed kong and he's content to work on that. At night, he sleeps in his crate with the door closed.<br/><br/>All in all, Luigi is an easy dog who just needs a routine and some consistency to be the loyal, life-long companion he's meant to be.
