Story
Meet Blu! This big boy was surrendered through no fault of his own and would love to be your permanent playmate! Blu walks well on a harness once he`s gone to the bathroom and gotten his zoomies out of the way. He`s excited to be out and about to explore and watch everything going on around him. Blu will `sit` politely for treats and is gentle when he accepts them. He loves toys! He even like to take them on his walks. Blu can often be seen chasing tennis balls or bouncing around with squeaky toys in our play yards. He has that adorable goofball puppy energy. Blu is house and crate-trained, and is great with kids. He has shown appropriate and playful behavior toward other dogs while he has been with us. Blu would be a great fit for any family. Come in and meet him today!
