Louise - ADOPTED!
Background: Louise is a survivor. First, she survived Hurricane Katrina (she was found wandering the streets with her puppy). Then, she survived being transported all the way to Indianapolis Animal Care & Control (IACC), the local agency that rescued and cared for her for more than 7 months. After that, Louise survived a bout of heartworm (but she's healthy now)! Now, Indiana-PAW has partnered with IACC and ASTRO Pit Bull Rescue to help Louise find a permanent home. That is, Louise is now with an Indiana-PAW foster parent in Merrillville, and her adoption will go through ASTRO. Yes, Louise is a survivor.
