About Bleu

Bleu is an impressive, strong presence who tips the scales with confidence at about four years old. He’s striking and catches eyes wherever he goes. Bleu loves splashing around in water, hitting the road for car rides, and never passes up a plate of fresh scrambled eggs. He does well with dogs, cats, and even chickens, though he’s been known to get picky about some male dogs—especially excitable ones. If you already have a dog at home, a female companion is the safer bet. Bleu’s leash manners need work since he tends to pull with his whole weight, but with practice, he’ll get there. He’s happy as long as the right person can handle his muscle and spirit. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
