Mauritius Dog Names

Port Louis is the capital of Mauritius. A place to buy local handicrafts and produce, this bustling city is known for the French Colonial architecture found there. Louis is also the name of a dog who was brought in to a rescue organization in the United States by the animal and cruelty division. The dog was matted and in very bad shape; in fact, he barely looked like a dog. The vets took excellent care of the pup and he was shaved and given a bath. After being groomed, he looked like a completely different dog. While he looked healthy, it was apparent that he had some behavioral challenges as a result of his past. For example, he would frequently curl his lip when he did not like someone and he was nervous around people.

While going through rehabilitation, a woman named Mandy decided to foster him. Her father, whose name is Joe, is experiencing dementia and can become very agitated. Mandy thought that Joe might be able to help Louis, while Louis might be able to help Joe. Fortunately, Joe fell in love with Louis immediately and it seemed that the feeling was mutual, with the two of them getting along great. Louis seems to enjoy cuddling with Joe, who seems to love the cuddles himself. Considering all of his matted fur, it is likely that Louis had not felt the touch of a human in quite some time; with Joe, Louis is getting to experience love and comfort. According to Mandy, Louis helped to lift her father’s spirit; in fact, she said that she has not seen her dad this happy in quite a long time.

While Mandy initially intended to foster Louis, she and her dad decided to adopt him as he and Joe got along so well. Louis is now a very energetic, bright, happy and well-loved pup.

Another dog named Louis was called a hero after he saved a one-year-old girl from choking to death while she slept. The little girl, named Chloe, was choking on her own vomit after she became sick in her bedroom. Louis, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, began barking and running around in order to alert Chloe’s mom that something was going on. Shannon, Chloe’s mom, rushed to see what was going on and found her daughter face down, pale and not breathing. She picked her up and patted her on the back. According to doctors, if she had not gotten to Chloe when she did, Chloe might not have lived. Apparently, Chloe used to be terrified of the pup (who belongs to Shannon’s grandmother), but now they are inseparable.

Shannon first assumed that someone was walking past their home when Louis started barking. When he did not stop, Shannon was not sure what to think since he rarely did that. She noticed that he was running in and out of the rooms and kept going back to Chloe. After they discovered Chloe, her father rushed her to the hospital, where she was diagnosed with bronchitis and a stomach bug. Thanks to Louis she made a full recovery.
