Baloo is a 7 year old medium sized black Labrador cross. Baloo is fostered in Norfolk (FR007). Baloo was rescued from a shelter in Romania and brought to the UK by another rescue. After a few weeks with them they felt they couldn’t give him the socialisation he needed to progress him enough to be fit for adoption so asked us if we would help. As this is the kind of dog we love to take on of course we agreed.
Baloo is a dear boy with a sensitive nature. He bonded with me very quickly and the key to him gaining confidence lay in his walks. Initially he didn’t want to go and jumped at every sound but now he follows me around the house until I take him and once out he has the time of his life. It’s so wonderful to see the uptight dog that he can be at home relax into the playful, tail wagging chap he is when he’s running the fields or the beach. He is still quite quiet at home and extremely calm and well behaved. On walks he comes into his own and has a lovely time running and playing with his pals. Ideally Baloo would find a home with one or two other confident dogs as he really does enjoy canine companionship.
This quiet and thoughtful boy so needs someone who understands that life is still scary for him sometimes. He is now only mildly shy with strangers and will allow new people to stroke him after only a few minutes of meeting. I would dearly love to see this boy given the chance of a home of his own. In the year he’s been with us he’s not had a single enquiry and probably gets overlooked because he’s black.
