About Lu

Meet Lu, also known as Blue Baloo. This 1.5-year-old, large dog boasts a stunning chocolate coat and soulful brown eyes. Energetic and playful, he has a personality that shines. Lu’s intelligence sets him apart. He’s not just a handsome face; he’s a quick learner who understands commands in English, Spanish, and French. His training journeys are enjoyable, particularly because he's food-motivated. From single cues to complex commands, he excels, making every training session a rewarding experience. This well-mannered pup is crate trained and has been improving his leash skills—though he used to pull, consistent training has helped him become more focused. Lu loves to play fetch, enjoys watching the world from the window, and adores snowy days. Living with two cats, he's learning to coexist with them thanks to careful introductions. While he enjoys watching birds and squirrels, prospective adopters should be aware of his natural prey drive. With a chicken allergy in his history, Lu thrives on a fish-based diet and enjoys peanut butter, bananas, and yogurt as treats. Lu seeks a loving home where calm, consistent leadership will guide him as he learns and grows. This loyal and affectionate companion promises to return the love you give him, along with plenty of personality. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
