My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bolto is a great dog. He is very smart and has a great sense of his whereabouts. With a great family he will become acclaimate quickly. He is excellent around children and other animals, and really enjoys playing outside. For an old dog he has a great will about him as if inside he was still a young pup. He has a really good appetite, and does well with his cues to use the bathroom. All in all Bolto is a fantastic dog and with the right family he will be a great addition.

Meet Balto, the 8-10 year old shepherd mix with a heart full of love. Balto has a gentle and affectionate nature, making him a perfect companion for families with kids, other dogs, and even cats. He is not only house trained, but he also has a puppy, like energy and a love for outdoor activities, like going for walks and playing in the backyard. However, don’t be fooled by his active side, as Balto is also a sleepyhead who enjoys his downtime.
Despite his playful nature, Balto has been dealing with bad back hips. It’s been a tough journey, but with regular injections, medication and exercise his hips are improving every day. He may occasionally mount other dogs, but he’s a work in progress, showing that he is open to learning and growing. Balto’s resilience, and determination to overcome his health issues is truly inspiring.
If you’re looking for a loving and good natured dog, who is both energetic and laid-back, then look no further than Balto. He is ready to bring joy and moths to your home, and with a little patience and understanding, he will make a wonderful addition to any family. Balto’s story is a testament to the healing, power of love and care, and he is undoubtedly deserving of a loving forever home

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We ask all potential adopters to fill out an adoption application which allows us to check certain points of reference (vets, home ownership status, previous pets, etc). If the application looks good, the adopter signs the adoption contract which states, among other things, the animal(s) will have a permanent home with said adopter and if for any reason this becomes impossible, the animal must be returned to Four Legs Good. Four Legs Good reserves the right to place a follow-up phone call or visit, with notice, within the first year of adoption.
