Meet Baloo (7 years, 56 pounds), a sweet, loyal, and wonderfully independent boy who is looking for a very special forever home. Baloo is a neutral player who would do best with an experienced owner who understands that trust is something that is built over time.
Baloo may take a little while to open his heart, but once you've earned his trust, you're in-and you're his person. His loyalty runs deep, and he forms incredibly meaningful bonds with the people he trusts. He doesn't need to be everyone's best friend; he just needs someone patient enough to let him be himself and give him the time and space to feel safe.
Baloo's independent nature means he's perfectly content doing his own thing, but there's something incredibly special about watching him choose to come to you, seek you out, and show you that he trusts you. For the right person, that bond will be worth every minute.
Baloo is looking for an experienced adopter who is willing to be patient, consistent, and understanding as they earn his trust. In return, he'll give you something truly priceless: a fiercely loyal best friend who knows exactly who his person is.
If you're the kind of person who understands that the best relationships take time to build, Baloo may be the boy you've been waiting for.
