Blaze

Arriving in New York this January, Blaze is a 60lb bundle of devotion ready to find his forever home. At 5-6 years old, he has long since outgrown the frantic puppy stages, trading zoomies for a more sophisticated, "chill" approach to life. He is a mature, gentle boy who truly understands the value of a warm home and the family that comes with it.<br/><br/>Blaze is a "people dog" through and through. While he can be a bit shy at first, once he knows he is safe, he becomes your loyal shadow. He is a quiet companion who doesn’t bark much, preferring to express his affection through soft whimpers and close snuggles. Because he thrives so much on human companionship, he is looking for a home where he isn't left alone for long periods—whether that means a family who works from home or one with a calm canine sibling to show him the ropes.<br/><br/>In the house, Blaze is an easygoing roommate. He is both crate-trained and house-trained, though he appreciates a consistent potty schedule as he settles into a new routine. He travels well, usually just whimpering a bit to make sure his favorite people are still nearby. While he hasn't lived with cats, he is a total gentleman on walks and isn't bothered by the neighborhood felines he passes.<br/><br/>Because Blaze can occasionally show his excitement with "happy jumps," he would do best in a home with older children who can handle his 60lbs of love. If you are looking for a devoted, low-drama companion to fill that empty spot on your couch, Blaze is waiting for you.<br/><br/>**Apply to adopt Blaze on our website: www.strongpawsrescue.org**
