My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We’re going to let you in on a little FBCAS secret. Blaze’s tough guy image that he’s worked so hard to portray is FAKE. That’s right! He’s really a softie who craves cuddles and attention above all else. When you walk up to his kennel he greets you with rude sounding barking. Why would he put on a fake mean persona you ask? The answer is simple: the treat tax. He’s realized that if he pretends to be scary people will give him treats to try and win him over. And he’s right – we do! One treat is all it takes to become best friends. Then he’s instantly calm and ready to be loved on. Even though he’s not being honest, he is really cute. So we’re just going to keep letting him run his little scheme until he finds a home of his own. You’ll be rewarded too if you play into his hand. He is the cuddle master and just wants to snuggle up to you as much as possible.

After you’ve payed the treat tax Blaze is calm, sweet, friendly, and submissive. He enjoys belly rubs and will take his treats like a sweetheart from your hand. He seems to have had some practice sitting on command too. He’s also gotten along well with other dogs in shelter playgroups.
