I'm Blueberry, or Blue for people who really know me. I’m a big sweetheart. Sure, I might look a little scary at first, but I promise I'm just a gentle giant who wants to be loved. I found my forever home with Christina and Jason five years ago. I was about three years old when Christina’s friend spotted me at the gas station where I worked with my old owner.
Turns out, my owner didn’t really want me anymore, so luckily, I was taken that night by her friend and made my way to my new home. It took me a bit to get used to things, but with some love and training, I knew I was right where I belonged. And when my human brother River was born shortly after, my heart grew even bigger! At first, the kids in the neighborhood were scared of me, but not anymore.
They always stop by on their way to school to say hi and pet me. Our door is always open for them, and I love it. When Christina says, "Who's here?" in her excited voice, I know someone special is coming to give me a cuddle. Mommy Christina is my favorite person ever. We have a special bond—I can feel what she feels. If she's stressed, I'm there to comfort her. In fact, I'm a big feeler; I'm very emotional. If there's stress or tension, I'll tiptoe upstairs to find a quiet place. I feel everything through my stomach. Sometimes, I stop eating or have an upset tummy if there's too much stress around me.
I love our daily routines: morning snuggles, walks, playtime, and dinner at five o’clock sharp. In the evenings, I bring toys to River so we can all play as a family. And now, I also have a baby human sister, Riley. The five of us make the perfect family! I think we were meant to find each other. My family takes such good care of me, and I'll always be there to protect them. I may be big, but my heart is even bigger. I'm just a softie who found his perfect forever home.
