Balto is a stunning 5-month-old pup who may be a Shepherd and Husky mix. He weighs approximately 25 pounds. His adult weight will most likely be in the 50 - 60 pound range.
Balto is a very social and affectionate dog. His ideal owner should have experience with Shepards or Huskies as they often can require extra training, mental stimulation, and extensive amounts of physical exercise than more sedentary breeds. Huskies also are heavy shedders and require frequent brushing to maintain a beautiful coat.
Balto would do well with an active family who can ensure that he receives regular exercise and training. His foster family has a swimming pool and he loves the water! Balto is extremely intelligent and has mastered basic commands. He will make a loyal companion.
Please understand you are committing to providing a good home for his entire life (up to 15+ years or more) - not just until his puppy cuteness wears off.
You must be committed to housebreaking, age-appropriate enrichment and exercise, leash training, grooming needs, and positive socialization. Like most puppies, he may chew on anything within his reach to include but not limited to baseboards, shoes, socks, children's toys, electrical cords, plants, etc.
His adoption fee is $250. This includes his neuter surgery, rabies vaccination, Nobivac® Canine 1-DAPP vaccinations, Bravecto®, Drontal® Plus, Tri-Heart® Plus Chewable Tablet, 24PetWatch® microchip, leash and collar, and a trial offer for 24PetWatch® Pet Insurance.
Please be aware that puppies and small breed dogs do get adopted quickly so interested parties are encouraged to apply online at .saspca.

If your adoption application is approved and you are traveling from out-of-town, we hold your chosen pet for one hour past the event start time to allow for travel time.
We are an all-volunteer organization and do not currently have the resources to process out-of-state adoptions.
Our puppies, purebred dogs, and small breed dogs do get adopted quickly so we encourage interested parties to apply online.
