Meet Lewis, a handsome, sweet, English Pointer. Lewis was found as a stray and has since been neutered and updated on all his vaccinations. He loves to cuddle, be petted, and gets along with dogs of all sizes. Lewis gets along best with female dogs, so a home without a male dog would be best for him. (He has not yet been introduced to cats.) His estimated age is between 5 and 6, and has lots of playfulness in him whether he is chewing on his toys, or playing and running around the yard with the resident dogs.
Lewis is house trained, and is currently learning sit, and still needs a little work on the leash, but he is catching on quickly. He will go in to a kennel with treats and initially whines, but after only a few minutes will settle in and rest while we are away.
As mentioned earlier, Lewis loves to snuggle up next to you on the couch and enjoys being petted. We have found, however, that if he is dreaming deeply, he can be startled when woken unexpectedly. Lewis will need a home that understands that is best to wake him by voice, and a home with small children would not be recommended.
Although we aren't certain if Lewis would react to the sound of a gun, he has actively hunted in the field and locked up when he found game. And a beautiful point it was!!
Lewis is located in NE.
