Blue is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 1-year and 5-month-old, 55-pound, female, Hound mix.

Blue began her life as a stray in Sonora. She was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through the FOCAS (Friends of County Animal Services) program.

She was adopted, then returned when her family decided they weren’t ready for a puppy. She was adopted again, then returned when she didn’t adjust to her new surroundings.
