About Azul

Azul is back at the rescue after previously being adopted as a puppy. She needs a home without chickens or cats, since she has shown too much interest in both. Give her some time to get to know you, and Azul comes out of her shell—she’ll melt for pets and belly rubs once she feels safe. Azul is highly food-motivated and loves playing fetch, making her a fun dog to train and interact with. She’s eager to please and soaks up attention, especially once she’s comfortable. Azul has shown she’s good with children of all ages and has enjoyed rough-and-tumble play with large male dogs in her old home, but her experience with smaller dogs is unknown. She’s crate trained and her crate comes with her. Azul is looking for someone who will give her structure and keep her curiosity in check. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
