Introducing Baloo!
Update 6/27/23
She is now around 7-8 months old and she has learned a-lot of skills. She is super food motivated. She has a good sit- maintain and eye contact. Foster mom uses this when she get alert on her environment. She will get barky and rowdy and pulls against leash when she see other dogs on leashes. So sit- maintain has helped with this issue.
Baloo is super smart and her recalls are great, however you must have a treat to reward when she comes. She is so smart she knows when there is No reward.
Baloo is super playful with toys and loves to chase the ball.
I can’t forget the water hose, her true heeling instincts come out, chasing it and jumping thru the air. Which is a good way to make her tired.
Baloo is crate trained and knows her routine. She will be a short version of cattle dog, around 25 lbs.
*************
Baloo is a 7 month old ball of energy and cuddles. But mostly play! She is energized and natural herding instincts. Needs a herding experience home. She is crate trained and learning skills with training. She is learning not to chase the vacuum or broom. It’s a work in process. She has NOT herd people legs, as of now. Super smart and picks up a routine extremely fast. Quickly runs up the stairs when it is feeding time and bolts to her crate and sits patiently and proper, waiting for her crate door to open. She will be taking puppy classes at the local obedience dog school. Truth About Dogs School. Where she will learn more skills. Baloo ideal home would be with someone who wants to see her succeed and socialize her in the big world, and not shelter her at home. Baloo needs to go to a home with older kids, no toddlers, mainly because her high drive to chase. Plus, Cattle Dogs are sensitive to noise. Looking for an active family or couple. Baloo won’t be your low drive dog. A home with a fence is required for Baloo.
Baloo is being fostered in Plymouth.
