Baloo - 10 months old

Baloo is now a full 25kg of fluff and muscle. He has the most incredible personality and is such a cuddly little teddy bear. Having said that, at times he can be a real little terrorist too... nobody knows that better than big brother Paddington! But watching the two of them play ALL DAY LONG, I'm sure Paddington wouldn't have it any other way:)

Jenni Gray (Baloo's breeder) lost one of her oldest Australian Shepherds today. "Breezer" was one of the very first Aussies to be imported into South Africa from the USA... he was 13 years old and died in Jenni's arms this morning. He was, as she put it on Facebook, her "great ambassador" - not only for Stavros kennels, but also for the Australian Shepherd breed in South Africa. My heart goes out to Jenni tonight. RIP little boy:)
