He came in as a stray again on April 8th and was not reclaimed by his owner. <br/><br/>Blue is a big, bouncy, affectionate dog who wears his heart on his sleeve. He loves people, melts into pets, and will happily roll over for belly rubs. He's treat-motivated and takes them gently. <br/><br/>He can be a bull in a china shop, but has also been described as a sweet, gentle giant who calms down with engagement and loves hugs. He's done well meeting other dogs and appears to be housetrained. <br/><br/>Blue does best when he has an outlet for his energy and a patient handler who can redirect his excitement.
