BLUEY - Labrador Retriever and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Colorado Springs, Colorado

Bluey is a very sweet and affectionate girl who loves playing with her toys, chewing on bones, and spending time with her people. She previously lived with a 7-year-old. She has not lived with other animals, so her history with dogs and cats is unknown. Bluey has shown destructive behaviors when left alone. She has not been crate trained or worked with a trainer, so crate training will be important to help keep Bluey safe and set her up for success in her new home. She will also benefit from plenty of daily physical exercise, mental enrichment, and appropriate outlets for chewing to keep her busy.
