This handsome boy is Blaze. He was rescued in February 2025 from a litter of 10 born under an abandoned house/shed. Blaze was the only one rescued. He has been fostered in a home since his rescue. He has socialized with the teenage boys in the neighborhood and interacted with them playing ball as a puppy. He has been taught to sit on command and fetch his ball. He resides in a kennel on the patio and has a fenced backyard for exercise. He gets along well with the small Yorkshire terrier in the adjacent fenced yard. Blaze is 1 year old and weighs 62 lbs. He may still grow a little more, but probably won't exceed 75 lbs once mature. He is likely a mix of many breeds.
Ideal Home
Blaze would do best with an active family who will give him the physical and mental stimulation he needs. He would likely love kids, but would probably be best with older, sturdy kids, only because he doesn't know his size and strength and could easily knock over a little one.
Ongoing Health
Blaze is neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.
Training & Support
Blaze has had minimal leash training due to his strength. He is familiar with a harness and leash, but needs training to not pull and to be more gentle. He loves to play ball and chase squirrels and birds out of the yard. This young, sweet boy desperately wants affection and training. He is smart and eager to learn. He responds exceptionally well to any affection offered to him. He craves mental stimulation.
