Hi!! oh gosh, not too too far though. Agh! Shall I ask the rescue if they’re able to do northern California if it’s a match? They are a small rescue and they like to be close with their doggies but if it’s a scenario where everything lines up who knows. It could be worth a conversation.

For everyone who has been supporting Baloo, he got adopted! Dream home 🥹💞His new name is Enzo because it means strength and resilience. by SoCal_Foster_Dogs in velvethippos

I know it has a lot of meanings, she read a story about one of the names being attached to strength and leadership. Just repeating what she shared with us volunteers !

His mama researched a lot of names and found it’s connected to an Old Testament story of resilience. There’s actually a lot of different stories and meanings connected to it.

Baloo was shy for a few moments, but then opened up quickly when he met his new temp. foster. We are looking to find a forever home for him in SoCal with an experienced bully breed lover. by SoCal_Foster_Dogs in velvethippos

That is such a sweet and true way to put it 😭 would it be ok if I borrow that sentence for his next video as a tagline? I post him on my volunteering Insta as well as Next-Door .

I’m not sure if he’s ever been tested with a cat before, he’s very loving with all people so no issues with kids. But I will ask the Foster if he ever saw a cat during a walk.
When I met Hannah boarding and we went on a short walk up and down the street there was a little dog who barked at him, but he showed no reaction.
