And Louie

Louie is more than just a handsome shop dog—he’s the real star of 412 Apotheca. If you stop by the North Side store, chances are you’ll meet Louie, Christopher’s friendly French poodle who’s always eager to greet customers.

Shopping with us means you might get a wag, a nuzzle, or even a cameo in a store photo, because loyal Louie loves making visitors feel at home. He’s a big part of the vibe—adding a personal touch, warmth, and a sense of fun that regulars look forward to each visit.

Like Christopher says, “we’re just actors in his life,” and 412 Apotheca wouldn’t be the same without him at the center of it all.
