About Baloo

Baloo, a wonderful 5-year-old Great Dane, found himself at the shelter after his family could no longer care for him. He weighs 107 pounds, a bit hefty but likely with room to gain more. This gentle giant thrives on attention and loves being around people. Baloo has experience living with small children; however, it's important that young ones have familiarity with extra-large dogs due to his size. He has also shown a friendly nature toward both cats and dogs in the past. A car ride is one of his favorite activities, but he does have a fear of fireworks and loud sounds, which is understandable. Baloo knows commands like sit, down, and shake; however, he does pull on the leash, so he would do best with someone experienced in handling large dogs. Knowledge of the Great Dane breed is essential for potential adopters. After being neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, he’s ready for a loving forever home. Don't miss out on giving this sweet soul another chance! Cumberland Valley Animal Shelter, Chambersburg, PA
