wilbur-baloo

Wilbur Baloo is a 2-year-old chocolate-colored Shar Pei, about 45 pounds of soft-hearted sweetness, available for adoption through Shar Pei Nation Rescue. He is located in Magna, UT.

He came from a difficult situation where his former owner would not allow him inside the home. Because of that, he missed early comfort with indoor living, but he has since discovered it and absolutely loves being inside. Indoors is where he feels safest and happiest, where he can fully relax, rest, and stay close to his people.

Outside is still a bit scary for him, but he is bravely building confidence every day. He is trying hard and making steady progress with patience and reassurance.

Wilbur would likely do best in a home with another friendly dog to help him feel more secure and comfortable. He tends to relax more when he has a canine companion nearby.

* Walks beautifully on leash like a polite little gentleman
* Good with other dogs and calm around cats
* Loves being indoors where he feels safe and content
* Nervous about the outdoors, but gaining courage step by step
* Can have nervous accidents while learning, but he is improving with time
* Absolutely LOVES people and actively seeks affection
* Trusts people and enjoys being close to them
* Will lean into you for pets like it is the best part of his day
* Makes the cutest little “gibberish talk” sounds when he wants attention
* Loves soft, fluffy toys and gentle play
* In the shower, he cries the sounds of his people while being washed, but he will lie down patiently and calmly accepts bath time. He is also used to having his ears cleaned and handles it well with gentle care

Wilbur is a sweet, gentle boy who is learning every day that the world can be safe, kind, and full of love.
