About Baloo
Meet Baloo, the young and vibrant blue heeler with a heart as big as his curious eyes. Just shy of a year old, Baloo is full of youthful energy and possesses a personality that exudes warmth and friendliness. His gleaming coat and wagging tail are just the beginning of what makes Baloo a fantastic companion. He's a friendly and sociable boy who gets along famously with both dogs and people alike, always eager to make new friends and playmates.
Baloo would be delighted to join a family that enjoys engaging with him in cuddles, games, and outdoor fun. Though he thrives on affection, it's important to understand that Baloo is a working dog, and his instinctive herding nature can make him a bit mouthy at times. Therefore, he would do best in a home with children who are comfortable and experienced with dogs. Baloo’s boundless enthusiasm and playful spirit make him forever eager for interactive play, whether it's a game of fetch or an exciting walk in the park.
With Baloo, every day will be filled with happiness and laughter. If you’re searching for a delightful and loyal companion to add to your family circle, Baloo is ready to bring his joyful energy and loving cuddles to your life. Embrace the journey of life together with Baloo, and you'll find a friendship that's as radiant as his wonderful personality.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
