File #24-275Current Foster Location: Almonte, ON *Please note that we do not typically adopt outside of a 2 hour radius from the foster dogs current location* Hi, Im Balto, the Brave (and Adorably Clumsy) Explorer! Like my legendary namesake, Balto the sled dog, Im ready to lead the way...to the snack cupboard. I wake up between 6 and 7 am (early riser, sorry!) and head outside for my morning business. Then its breakfast time, followed by my busy schedule of playing with my foster dog sibling, playfully chasing the house cat (who Im convinced is just a funky-looking dog), and hanging out with my human foster siblings. In my short life, I've already discovered that older kids are top-tier snuggle buddies, and little kids have the best potential for becoming my ride-or-die snack suppliers. Wherever they go, I follow because their trail is paved with crumbs and endless adventure. Sometimes, though, when the house gets too wild, I retreat to my crate for some peace and quiet. While I can thrive as the solo star in your home, having another dog around might help me settle in and keep my trademark Husky vocals in check. With time, training, and plenty of love, I promise to become the best family pup ever. Please visit our website www.ittakesavillagedogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing dog and to see other available dogs.
