A4830973 Balto is a debonair 1-year-old gray-and-white neutered male Siberian Husky mix puppy who was found in La Puente on May 16th and brought to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center. Weighing 40 lbs, Balto is a simply stunning baby deserving of his own Audubon painting. He hasn’t become both a shelter staff and volunteer favorite just because of his looks, though. Balto also has a fun and loving personality impossible for any dog lover to resist! Unfortunately, Balto is scared in the uncertain shelter environment (what dog wouldn’t be?). As such, he is shy and unable to entirely settle here. He does love people, though, and he clearly gains a sense of assurance from his time spent with them. Balto is generally non-reactive around other dogs, preferring the company of people instead (especially receiving belly rubs from them!). He is also highly treat-motivated (he is, in fact, not too shy to help himself to a bag of treats!). Couple this with his inquisitive nature, and we expect that he will do exceedingly well in any future training endeavors (assessing his leash-skills has been difficult since he’s been so scared here). Balto stands ready and eager to meet his forever family and learn the puppy training basics that all young ones need to grow into happy and healthy adults. He will thrive most in an active household that challenges both his body and mind, incorporating him into their daily lives.

Mission:
United Hope for Animals is dedicated to reducing homelessness among companion animals through spay/neuter, shelter support, photography, video and networking of shelter animals in Southern California. It is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization working to end homelessness among companion animals by supporting shelter adoptions and spay/neuter programs. Through our Shelter Support Program, our volunteers photograph and video shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption significantly. Our volunteer Adoption Coordinators help facilitate adoptions of shelter pets. United Hope for Animals supports rescue, spay/neuter and networking of shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption. UHA is not a shelter, but supports shelters to help increase visibility of animals who might not otherwise be seen.
