Louie and Izzie are the furry co-workers of Paul Mombourquette, employer development coordinator with SITE Co-op.

Names: They are Louie, my ginger buddy with sweet white face and soulful eyes, and Izzie my milk chocolate, brown eyed girl! Louie has regretted us bringing Izzie home from the beginning, but Izzie doesn’t care as she took over the pack from him. They love each other and have fun when she’s feels like it.

Nicknames: Louie: Buddy, You Little B—tard, Lucifer, Lovebug. Izzie: Izzie Busy, Princess, Baby Girl and also Lovebug.

Species/Breed: Louie is a Havanese/Jack Russell mix and Izzie is a Havanese/Shih Tzu mix.  

Ages: Louie is nine and Izzie is eight.

Fave food: Izzie, well, she loves to eat dirt and sleep (I mean a lot).

Special tricks: Both are great doorbells (especially when I turn my hearing aids off) and great work mates!

Best qualities: Louie loves to be active — playing in the yard, playing tug & war with his pull toys, but most especially being near us for his massages.
