Have you ever encountered a dog with soulful eyes? You have now. Darling Balue has cracked the code to transmitting love and affection through his gaze, and he would like to share his secrets with you! Balue is a sweet and sensitive fellow who would love to offer you his belly for your patting pleasure. He does a delightful "turtle stuck on its back" maneuver when he finds a particularly intriguing spot on which to scritch his spine. If Balue were a human, he'd have a lifetime membership to The Huntington, where he'd visit on weekday mornings to stroll the quiet gardens before the crowds roll in. A twenty minute sniffy stroll and then back inside for snacks sounds just fine. You won't catch him out pounding the trails or scoping out the hippest and newest brewery in LA, but a cup of tea and NYT crossword puzzle by the fire sounds quite nice. While Balue would absolutely love a small yard where he could putter in the garden and listen to the birds, we think he'd be happy with lowkey apartment life too. This smart cookie has completed training with our friends at the Paws for Life prison training program in Lancaster. If you're in the market for a scholar and a gentleman (and honestly, who isn't?) Balue would like to inquire about how many napping spots your home can accommodate.
