Meet Baby Blue â the husky adolescent. Baby Blue arrived to the Shelter as an owner surrender after his previous guardian was unable to continue caring for him. He is an energetic, engaging guy who has been interested in being friends with just about everyone since his arrival at the Shelter. Typical to a pup his age, he pulls excitedly on leash and is ready to go out for an adventure. Adopters should ensure they are prepared to take on the needs of an intelligent, high energy dog as he will require above average mental and physical stimulation in the day to day. Baby Blue has met a female husky around the same age and size and enjoyed playing with her. A canine friend in his adoptive home may be a fit after a meet ân greet at the Shelter. We do not have any history of Baby Blue with cats or children.The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering âPawsitivity Bucksâ with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz locationâs Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week. Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end âmeet and greetsâ (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If youâd like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
