Blue came to us after being seized from a home when his owner was detained. We are not 100% sure how Blues life was prior to the shelter, but so far here, he is a little nervous of new people but with some treats and gentle talk, he can warm up to you. Blue is sensitive to his neck and rear being touched. Blue wags his tail when he knows he is being taken out for a walk and does well on leash but can pull at times and is strong. Due to his head/collar sensitivity and strength, he is recommended to a home with older teens 16 and up. This 1.5 old boy could really benefit from a home, as shelter life is quite overwhelming for him. Could you be his forever?
