About Blaze

Meet Blaze! This charming young male is ready for a forever home. Brought in as a stray, we estimate he’s around 5 years old, but he radiates youthful energy. Friendly and playful, Blaze loves to run around, taking in every scent along the way. His favorite pastime is playtime, especially with stuffed toys. Though he’s not fully house trained yet, he’s made great strides and would thrive with some further obedience training and socialization. Blaze does well with dogs but may show initial reactiveness, so a meet and greet is necessary if you have another dog. He has also been around children and seemed to enjoy their company. However, he doesn’t get along with cats. For walks, he’s best suited to a harness. Blaze has been microchipped, vaccinated, and will be neutered before adoption.
