bluey

Hi, I’m Bluey! I’m a black and white Siberian Husky with bright blue eyes, and I’m 2 years old. I’ve been told I have the softest fur—like the plushiest plushy toy you’ve ever felt—and I’m super sweet to match.

I like to talk to you, but don’t worry, I won’t talk your ear off. I’ll usually bring you my toy and ask you to play. If you can’t spare a minute, that’s okay—I understand. I’ll go lay down and wait patiently, but I’ll still want to be near you. If I really need you, I’ll let you know by gently booping you with my nose, and if that doesn’t work, a paw on your arm usually gets the message across!

I do great in a pack and love going to doggy daycare. My buddies and I get along really well and play until our hearts are content. If you’re looking for a couch potato, I might not be your guy—but if you want a partner for bikejoring or cart pulling, I’m absolutely up for the job. And if that’s not your thing, I’m just as happy taking you on a nice brisk walk.

I’m husky-smart, so a family with Husky experience would be ideal. I’m learning lots of commands, including mushing commands! I love wearing my backpack on walks—it means I get to be out front and it’s time to get down to business. I’m learning to listen, leave the squirrels alone, and skip the sniffing for later. Don’t get me wrong, I love good smells, but I’m figuring out those are for leash walks and playtime, and I’m cool with that.

I’ll chase toys you throw and even bring them back… until I get bored. Then I think it’s your turn to fetch!

I’m really good at matching your energy. If you play rough, I’ll play rough. If you lay down, I’ll chill with you. If you run around like a maniac, I’m right there with you. If you expect me to play nicely, I will—you just have to remind me that’s the plan.

When I was first met, I was surrounded by kids at a picnic, soaking up belly rubs and all the attention. I loved it, so I seem to be pretty cool with kids.

I’m kennel trained for when my humans are out of the house, but at night I do great sleeping in the bedroom. I usually prefer the floor over the bed, though.

I’m learning that my humans prefer kisses instead of “mouthing,” and I’ve gotten much better at it—but hey, like everyone, I’m still a work in progress.

I’m friendly, curious, intelligent, and ready to be someone’s loyal sidekick and favorite playmate.
