Blue will be rehomed I'm sure with a family that will love his just about as much as you always will
Thanks Kelli! I'm very confident that he will have a home in the next couple days. There were people walking in that were interested in him while we were sitting there. The one family had two young boys that went and drug their dad over to see him.

I know exactly how you feel! I had to give up my partner for several years after I blew my knee out. I put thousands of hours into him, making him the best he could be and the whole family grew attached to him. Then all of this sudden the dog was gone, dad was on the couch and the kids blamed me for getting hurt! It tore me up and to make things worse, they put his new handler on my shift

Here is a pic of him:
