It's always great to receive an email from other 'Blue' families and this one from Tina S was really intriguing!
Western Maryland … This mountainous region offers a cooler climate and severe winters. "Ripley", a resuce dog, came from about 20 miles north in the area that they call “winter County”, which is Garrett County, Maryland.
Ripley is one of three rescue dogs in this family. Tina explains that they didn't know what breed of dog he was until they searched the
internet. She explains, "we found all of these dogs that looked AND acted like our
Ripley. He looks and acts exactly like you describe".
Now 8 years old, Tina and her family named him 'Ripley' after looking through a book of baby names!
Like all Blues, he is glued to Tina's side at all times and so defensive in the yard! He's a complete love-bug in the house and actually gets upset when Tina doesn't have time to snuggle in the mornings!
Ripley: A handsome Blue |
Ripley (far right) and his friends definitely won the lottery! |

Ripley is a clown and a typical Blue! |

What Blue doesn't like a nice comfy bed?? |
"I would love to clone him!!!! I want a whole pack of them!!!"

Tina writes that she thinks "we have Blue’s running around in our state and nobody knows what they are"!
I want to thank Tina for sharing Ripley with me and rescuing him from a life of uncertainty. It has been a real treat. I am so pleased that this Blue found a home that want him and love him. It breaks my heart that one of these rare dogs was needing to be 'rescued'. For those who have purchased one of these wonderful dogs from a breeder, please remember that puppies are never perfect. If you find yourself doubting your decision to have a puppy, please contact your breeder! She or he would be more than happy to help you with your new Blue. If you decide that you don't want the puppy, contact your breeder and return your puppy. No kind, reputable breeder would want to see their dog abandoned or mistreated.
Thanks again for sharing Tina and feel free to send more shots of handsome Ripley for future posts!!
