The playful Pitbull/Shepherd cross is waiting at Kitty and Puppy Haven for a loving family to grow up and make memories with.

 

Midrand, South Africa (23 January 2026) – Baloo may be just 12 weeks old, but this Pitbull and Shepherd cross already has a personality big enough to fill a home with joy. Currently waiting for his forever family at Kitty and Puppy Haven, this little boy is ready to grow up surrounded by love.

Baloo has an easy-going charm that makes him instantly lovable, not forgetting that he is playful and affectionate by nature. With his soft eyes and friendly energy, he has a way of making people feel right at home. Kitty and Puppy Haven describe him as a pup that enjoys his playtime just as much as he enjoys curling up for cuddles, always eager to connect and share his gentle spirit.

Baloo would thrive in a family environment where he can learn, grow and feel secure. Like all puppies, he’ll need patience, guidance and plenty of affection as he discovers the world.

Adoptions at Kitty and Puppy Haven take place by appointment only. Those interested in meeting Baloo are encouraged to contact the shelter between 9 am and 2 pm from Monday to Saturday to arrange a visit. If phone lines are unavailable, WhatsApp messages are welcome and the team will get back to you as soon as possible.

The adoption fee includes sterilisation, age-appropriate vaccinations, tick and flea treatment, deworming and a microchip, ensuring Baloo gets the best possible start in his new home.
