About Balto

Meet Balto! He’s an adorable 8-week-old male mixed-breed puppy, a blend of Pit Bull Terrier and German Shepherd. Balto came to us from Texas with his mom and eight siblings when they were just a few days old. This little guy is incredibly sweet and ready to bond with his forever family. Balto is already in a foster home with one of his brothers, where he's beginning to learn independence, crate training, and potty training. He’s up to date on his puppy vaccinations and has been dewormed, so he’s all set for adoption. He will still need to be neutered once he reaches the right age. Balto is known for being friendly with kids and gets along well with both dogs and cats, making him an ideal family pet. Click apply to start the adoption process.
