Blaze

Blaze is a 3 year-old, 55-pound Lab mix with two modes: Mode 1: “Let’s PLAY!” and Mode 2: “I shall now be your guardian angel while you relax.” There is very little in between. 😄<br/><br/>This handsome guy came to us as a stray, so he can be a little shy at first. But give him a minute — once he decides you’re his person, it’s game over. You will have a loyal shadow, professional foot-warmer, and full-time best friend. Blaze would do best with another canine friend as he is a very social boy with a good amount of energy.<br/><br/>Blaze loves:<br/><br/> A good game of fetch<br/> Chew bones (the better to occupy his brilliant mind)<br/> People and other canine friends — the more the merrier<br/> Sleeping dramatically at his foster dad’s doorway like a devoted knight<br/><br/>Blaze is inquisitive and curious about the world. Occasionally, he may test whether your shoe is secretly a chew toy (he’s still refining his classification system), but he’s learning quickly. In his defense, he does not jump on furniture and he’s too short to counter surf — so honestly? We’ll call that a win.<br/><br/>He walks beautifully on leash and enjoys exploring new places with his human. He’s not fond of the crate but he’s also showing that he can be trusted outside the crate. At night, he prefers to position himself near you — because obviously guarding the kingdom (you) is serious business.<br/><br/>Blaze enjoys people and other dogs but cats are an unknown.<br/><br/>✨ Neutered<br/>✨ Up to date on vaccinations<br/>✨ 3 years old<br/>✨ 55 pounds of loyalty<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a dog who will play hard, love deeply, and proudly sleep at your doorway like you are the most important person in the world — Blaze is ready! Blaze is being fostered in a northwest suburb of Chicago.<br/><br/><br/>*******************<br/><br/>Adopting a Lab can be a wonderful experience. Your new dog will need lots of love, adequate exercise and attention. Keep in mind that dog ownership may include additional costs for training, grooming, and health care beyond annual vaccines and monthly preventatives. It’s a lifetime commitment!

Blaze loves:

A good game of fetch
Chew bones (the better to occupy his brilliant mind)
People and other canine friends — the more the merrier
Sleeping dramatically at his foster dad’s doorway like a devoted knight
