Location: Corvallis, OR Meet Blueberry -- a dalmatian mix looking for his forever home. Blueberry was rescued from a shelter in SoCal and is being fostered in Oregon. He's sweet, friendly, and a little quirky. He loves going for long walks and searching for kibble in the snuffle mat afterwards. He is estimated to be about 4 years old and has a lot of energy -- perfect for someone that wants an active dog companion that's past the puppy stage. Blueberry is either deaf or has very limited hearing and will need more training with his forever family. He has a good foundation with sit, is great with accepting a harness, and has been improving with impulse control. He loves food and treats, so that helps with training! He would prefer to follow his humans around all day but has been doing a great job of learning to settle with food toys in the crate. Sometimes he sleeps soundly (he doesn't wake up to household noises) and he responds well to being woken up gently. Blueberry is a genuinely happy pup -- he greets you with smiles and wiggles. Blueberry enjoys exploring the neighborhood and could easily walk for hours. He pulls a little bit at the beginning of a walk when he has the most energy so he'll need continued training on loose leash walking (or a walking partner with a faster pace).He would also be a great hiking or jogging buddy -- he's still rebuilding muscle after being in a shelter for a few months so he would need a gradual introduction to jogging, but he's ready and excited to start training with you! Blueberry has had a lot of changes the past few months and will need some time to adjust to his new home. He would do well as an only dog. Blueberry is dog friendly but sometimes has strong emotions about other dogs (usually excitement). He may have some challenges understanding when another dog says no, since he's unable to hear them. May consider families that already have a dog if there's potential for a good fit. Blueberry has passed cats on a walk without too much excitement but he may have a bit of a prey drive (re: squirrels, deer) and would need careful introductions to other pets (cats, chickens, etc.). A fenced yard would be great so that he has a safe space to run but he's also doing well with lots of neighborhood walks. Can you give this sweet boy the forever home he deserves?
