Blaze a trail to meet Blaze, our Pet of the Week!

This senior Belgian Tervueren mix boy came to us as a stray in July, but his owners surrendered him. Blaze weighs about 65 pounds, making him a medium to large breed dog – though he could stand to lose a few pounds.

As an older guy, Blaze likes to go with the flow. He’s very affectionate, and you can get lost in that fluffy fur! He loves to sit with his people, and enjoys leisurely walks. Blaze is used to doing his own thing, as long as he has a routine.

His former foster says that Blaze is quiet, leash-trained, and very food motivated. He is low-key with other dogs, and can be shy when meeting new people. Despite his age, Blaze is quick on his feet and enjoys playing with toys. He also likes long car rides and a good roll in the grass. Blaze does have some hearing loss, but responds to loud noises and hand gestures. He is most at ease in a quiet household where he can get lots of pets.

Can you give Blaze the loving home he deserves in his golden years? He is neutered, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. As our Pet of the Week, his adoption fee is reduced, but includes a King County pet license (if applicable). Learn about all the benefits that come with a pet license at kingcounty.gov/LicenseMyPet.

Adopting a pet from RASKC is always a great value. Along with a wonderful companion, dog adopters get a $40 coupon toward training from our partners at Rover. All adopters can also benefit from enrolling their new friend in Fetch Pet Insurance. Fetch offers the most comprehensive plan in North America with no restrictions on breed, age, or size. Together, RASKC and Fetch are making sure pets are happy and healthy in their new forever homes!
