I’m Balou, a splendid one-year-old Pyrenees mix. With my large stature, I don’t always realize how much space I take up… but what’s certain is that my love for humans is just as immense! Naturally affectionate and full of enthusiasm, I can’t help but show you my joy by welcoming you with enthusiasm—sometimes even climbing on top of you for an XXL hug! More than anything, I need to feel my human by my side. A loving family, often at home, would be my greatest happiness. Daily walks are essential for me: they allow me to exercise, explore, and fully enjoy every moment. If you’re looking for a loyal companion, overflowing with love, and ready to share wonderful adventures with you, then I’m the one for you! We receive a very large amount of requests. They will be answered based on the order of receipt and the quality of the responses. You will be contacted if your applications is approved. Please note that we do not do DNA testing at the shelter so we cannot guarantee the breed.
