My name is Blu!

✨ Meet Blu — The 11-Month-Old Doberman Puppy With Endless Goofball Energy! ✨ Blu is a fully vetted, neutered, 11-month-old Doberman pup who brings pure joy everywhere he goes! This handsome boy is playful, silly, and full of puppy enthusiasm — the kind of dog who can make you laugh even on your toughest days. Blu LOVES other dogs and has been learning good manners from his canine buddies in foster care. He’s also a total gentleman in the car — quiet, relaxed, and always ready for adventure. This sweet boy has had a lot of inconsistency in his young life, bouncing between homes that simply weren’t prepared for a high-energy Doberman puppy. None of this was Blu’s fault — he just needed someone who understands what a growing Doberman needs. Now he’s ready for a fresh start. Blu is still polishing his manners, so we’re looking for a breed-experienced home that can give him the structure, training, and stability he deserves. With the right guidance, he’s going to grow into an incredible adult companion. If you're ready for a goofy, loving, social pup who finally deserves his forever home, Blu might be your perfect match!
