Blu is a vibrant approximately two-and-a-half-year-old Boxer/American Pitbull Terrier mix with a boundless energy that is perfectly matched by her big heart and beautiful brown brindle coat with white accents. She followed a kind soul home from a grocery store and never looked back. Since then, shes been spayed, vaccinated, and doted on with loving care. Living alongside two senior pups and a couple of confident cats, Blu has shown gentle patience and a genuine eagerness to belong. She is ready for more, a space to stretch her legs, a routine to call her own, and a family ready to match her curiosity with companionship.
At 65 pounds, Blu is a large pup with a personality even bigger! She's affectionate, incredibly smart, and motivated to please. Her favorite pastimes include fetch with her beloved soft frisbee, epic tug-o-war matches, chewing on yak cheese, and zooming around the yard like a joyful whirlwind! She also enjoys shredding soft toys and has discovered the fun of tugging on cardboard strips. She has not chewed on anything off-limits in months, a creative way to channel her natural need to rip and chew. She knows an impressive list of commands including sit, wait, down, up, leave it, come, and more! She responds well to structure and loves training, especially when it comes with treats and praise.
Ideal Home
Blu is still a young dog, she's energetic and can get excitable. This usually results in jumping up on people and cobbing, though her caregivers have done a lot of work to help her manage these behaviors. She can also be destructive when under-stimulated, which makes regular mental and physical enrichment essential. She does best with three walks a day, plenty of playtime, and enrichment activities to keep her mind engaged. A fenced yard is a big plus, as is a family who enjoys an active lifestyle and has time to include her in their daily routine.
