11/20/25 Balki is a sweet young pup who had a very hard start in life. He was in a shelter where he contracted parvo virus and barely survived. But he fought hard to live and he won! He beat the dreaded parvo and is now regaining weight and doing so well! He is a great little guy who likes everyone. He loves other dogs and doesn't bother cats. We believe he may have been dumped before he ended up at the shelter because he is scared of cars. When walking on leash, if he is near a car or truck, he gets visibly scared and will try to pull away. Once he is inside the car he does fine. He just has some emotional scars that are still healing. But he's getting better all the time, thanks to a foster helping him feel safe. Balki is working on house training. He isn't quite fully trained yet but is making progress every day. We dont know his breed, but he will likely be a big boy once grown. He currently only weighs about 25 pounds and he is about 5 months old. He is a little delayed in his growth due to having parvo, but he will catch up soon. We believe he will be around 60 lbs once grown. He will be ready for his new home by mid December. He is neutered, UTD on vaccines, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. 

Balki is located in Arkansas. He can be adopted locally, but transport is available to the New England area as well. Adopter must be able to pick up or arrange for someone to pick up for them in PA, NY, or CT on Saturdays.
