My name is Bleu!

Bleu is new around here, but also not new at all. He joined us from our good friends in Texas in June and was adopted in July. When life threw a curveball, he found his way back to CRA. We’re disappointed it didn’t work out, but fully committed to finding him the right forever home this time.
Bleu is a sensitive boy—like, actually. Change is hard for him and he needs time to process. He’s sweet as can be and never shows anything but love, but he does require patience, reassurance, and someone fully prepared to wipe the drool that comes from being an emotional little marshmallow. He’ll fall in love with you faster than you expect, but fair warning—the first few days may come with some sad eyes while he confirms he’s safe. After that? You’re his person.
Our unofficial best guess is that he’s a Great Pyrenees/Lab mix. We’re not experts, but if that’s the case, he’s absolutely nailed both.
At roughly 80 pounds, Bleu comes with a heavy head and zero personal space. A large couch (and a sense of humor) is highly recommended.
We do think Bleu needs a fenced yard—yes, he really said, “Let’s make this complicated.” But we promised him we’d give him everything he needs (and maybe everything he wants… have you seen his face?). He’d love a dog friend, but it’s not mandatory—we’re trying to be realistic here. No other dog? No problem. He’d be happy with some semi-frequent playdates to keep life interesting and is totally fine having you all to himself. Bleu loves structure—set him up with a solid routine and some training, and he’ll be the best boy you ever met. Ignore it, and… well, he’ll still be cute.
Bleu would like to live somewhere in or within Chicago (3 hours or less to be exact). If you are interested in being his forever apply directly. He is up to date on vaccines and preventatives, heart worm negative, neuter and microchipped.
