Balu looks like something straight out of a cartoon! With his super cute little expressive face! He has long elegant legs and he loves to use those and his wee delicate paws to “catch” a human as they stand close and pull them in closer so they have no option but to give him some lovin!
He can be a bit grumpy when we want to give him medicine or if he is scared (he’s got a bit of an attitude, but that just adds to his funny character!) but when he trusts you he quickly loses that grumpy persona and he’s just adorable. He comes across as a wise soul – often when the other dogs in his compound are running around like looneys or getting all excited at the gate waiting for a human to come in, he just perches in his fave spot up on the sala watching it all, wise in the knowledge that if he just waits patiently… the humans are going to come to him. Haha.
His besties are Betty and Jackson – all three like to hang out up on the sala. He’s not an aggressive dog with other dogs, but he also won’t take any crap! If someone challenges him, he will stand up for himself.
