Description
Blue was surrendered to us as his loving family fell on hard times and did not have the finances to continue to care for Blue. He is very much loved by his previous family and they only want what's best for him. Blue is having some allergy issues which has caused some fur loss and irradiated skin. He is on medication to bring him some relief, we have changed his diet and he will be seen by our vet. As you can imagine, Blue is quite confused with losing his family and home. He lived with children ages 6 through 16. We are giving Blue time to settle in and become accustom to his new surroundings and our volunteers.
Updates
Blue is settling into his foster home even though it's only been a few days. He's walking better on a leash and really wants to play with or at least be near the resident GSD, who is still trying to figure out who his new house guest is. Blue likes to chew on his chew toys and is crating really well with no accidents in the house or the crate. Blue seems to know basic commands, but can sometimes be stubborn, but he's young and training should help with that. If Blue sounds like he'd fit well into your family, ask to meet him.
,Blue continues to progress with his training. He's great in the crate and is still accident free in the house. Blue takes the "tough chew" label on toys as a personal challenge and wins every time! He loves his Nylabones and antlers. Blue is still leary of new people, but we're working on it. We'll continue with training and go to more public places to get him comfortable with new experiences.
