About Blaize

Meet Blaize! Blaize is a charming, playful Lab mix, two years old and weighing around 65 pounds. He's looking for a foster home because his previous owner has health issues that prevent them from providing the active life he needs. Neutered and up to date on his vaccinations, Blaize is leash and crate trained. While he's making progress in his house-training journey, he would benefit from continued support in a consistent routine. Blaize is friendly and playful around kids and has had positive interactions with other dogs, though he can be a bit territorial over food. Potential foster homes with other pets will need to carefully manage meal times and high-value treats to ensure smooth interactions. His ideal foster would offer room for his energy, provide regular exercise, and give him the attention he craves. Patience and understanding are key as he adjusts to a new environment. Blaize's family deeply cares for him and wants to ensure he finds a nurturing space before moving to his forever home. If you can help Blaize find a safe haven while we look for his forever family, please reach out!
