Fall in Love Fast With Louie

Louie is a 5-year-old dog who is available for adoption at the Animal Protective Association of Missouri.

Louie is a 5-year-old Whippet who was brought to the APA because his family did not have time to properly care for him. He is a sweet, sensitive boy who loves attention.

As much as Louie loves people, he wants to be the only pet in the home. He wants to snuggle close and doesn't want to share you with any other furry friend!

Whippets are agile dogs who love to run. The breed can run up to 35 miles per hour, as noted on the American Kennel Club website. It's the fastest domesticated animal of its weight.
