Say hello to Balto 🐾✨
A 2-year-old shepherd mix tipping the scales at 67 pounds of pure, unfiltered love. Big dog energy, bigger heart. This dude is the definition of wholesome — sturdy build, soft soul, zero toxic traits.
Balto knows his basic commands (yes king, he listens), walks around like he’s got a job, and takes being a good boy very seriously. He’s great with other dogs — respectful, playful, not doing too much — and when it comes to kids? Absolutely down bad. He adores them, protects them, and will happily accept all the tiny-human attention like it’s his birthright.
He’s loyal in a “I will follow you from room to room just to vibe” way, affectionate without being clingy (okay… maybe a little clingy), and always ready to match your energy — couch potato days or outdoor adventures. Balto is the kind of dog who makes your house feel like home and your bad days way less bad.
If you’re looking for a best friend who’s equal parts gentle giant, family dog, and certified good boy, Balto is that guy. No red flags. All green lights. 🐕🦺💚
