My story

Meet Baloo- Your Local Squirrel Patrol If you are looking for a cuddly, lovable, potato Baloo is the guy for you!! He is much more beyond the color and shape of an Idaho potato, though. Baloo adores people and enjoys to spend his time around them. His warm, brown eyes are a reflection of the warmth he will bring to your heart. Baloo loves to give kisses and believes that there is no limit to giving love. Baloo doesn't mind the occasional hike, and enjoys a nice long neighbor walk in the morning sun. He is more than happy to people watch at the park, or on the front porch. But beware of squirrels! Even when he is "off-duty" Baloo is always on squirrel patrol! Baloo is house-trained, knows his basic manners, and an eager student. Baloo prefers to be an only pup as he gets jealous of sharing attention. He also doesn't like to share his food or chews (he promises that he isn't selfish, just particular of sharing) If Baloo sounds like the guy for you, he would love to meet you! Cues That Baloo Knows: Sit Down Touch Stay Come No Off He has been exposed to a crate, but finds them rather scary Baloo is an All-Star dog! His adoption comes with some extra benefits at time of adoption. Their adoption appointment includes a discussion with our Training Team, and they will go home with their very own no-pull-harness and a few enrichment goodies to help get them off to a good start! To schedule an appointment to meet Baloo, email info@ahconnects.org (please include your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to help you! Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free-vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians. Ask fosters@ahconnects.org about fostering Baloo, while he waits for his forever home!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Baloo, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
