About azul: Hello, my name is Azul. My animal id is #217428. I am a male white dog at the Queens Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 8 months 3 weeks old.

I came into the shelter as a owner surrender on 12/26/2024, with the surrender reason stated as animal circumstance - abandoned by previous owner.


Azul is at risk due to behavioral concerns. Azul has not acclimated well to the shelter environment and is displaying a high level of kennel stress. While he was shown social behaviors with handlers and staff, Azul has shown a concerning level of kennel reactivity in and out of the kennel. In his kennel, Azul has been seen hard barking, screeching, bouncing off his kennel walls, and heavily panting with red eyes when people or other dogs pass his kennel. When being leashed, Azul becomes aroused, lunging at the kennel door albeit inconsistently and will kennel fight with other dogs as he is walked out of the room. Once out of his kennel, he is unable to settle but will engage with petting and accepts treats. Medically, Azul is apparently healthy.
