Balto's Story

Meet Balto!<br/><br/>This bouncy boy is a big bundle of love! He was brought to us from another shelter where he was found outside as a stray. He is just the sweetest thing. He play bows and bounces around with excitement when he sees his people and puppy friends. He even loves to play with little dogs and is very gentle. His old shelter noted that he reads dog body language very well too! He does good on the leash, he’s a little pully due to his size but he does well when redirected. He knows sit and paw and loves treats, he’s takes them very gently every time he is offered one:)<br/><br/>He recently went home and was brought back after a couple of weeks due to him not being able to leave the kitty alone. So we think for now he'd cat free home! <br/><br/>He is UTD with vaccines and neutered, he’s just waiting patiently for his furrever home! <br/><br/>Are you willing to open your heart to this handsome fella? If so feel free to come in Tuesday-Saturday from 10-4 (closed 12-1 for lunch) or fill out an application!!<br/><br/>https://www.arlfr.org/adopt/adoption-application
