They’re A Perfect Fit
YouTube, GeoBeats AnimalsMark and Sean saw how Blu’s character perfectly matches theirs. Mark said, “She immediately took a strong affinity towards Sean and the rest is pretty much history.”
Adjusting In Her New Home
YouTube, GeoBeats AnimalsSince Blu had been alone for a long time, it took her a while to get comfortable with her new dads. Mark said, “In fact, the first car ride we took her on to the beach, which was a couple of days after getting her – she was petrified. She was just shaking in the back.”
Her Story
UnsplashBlu’s original owners reached out to Mark and Sean and shared that Blu lived with them for six years until they had to move to a rental home that did not accept pit bulls, so they decided to send Blu to a shelter.
She’s At Home Now
YouTube, GeoBeats AnimalsAfter three years of being with her new family, Blu has formed a strong bond and connection with Mark and Sean and they’ve created their own communication style.
A Happy Family
YouTube, GeoBeats AnimalsBlu knows where her owners are going based on the direction of their movement and even sniffs their feet on walks to find out the direction they’re going. Sean said, “I think she’s my spiritual animal I guess. I know when she’s anxious and when she’s happy and sad. We just read each other very well.”
