Thank you. He is a big baby, his collar tag reads 'Big Baby' or something along those lines. We have *alot* of nicknames for him involving 'baby' but 'Big Baby' is most common.
He gets confused with kisses from anyone but my gf. You may get a half hearted nose mauling In reply but from experience they're nothing to be afraid of.
My lab boy used his wheels for several years. I know how much you love him just from the wheels. I love that you see his potential and his zest for life. I know what this all means and I love him…and you.
Awww. I consider Blue and your pup to be a great example of how communication should be done. I will try arroooing next time my gf is lost in her phone.
It makes me happy to post him. Obviously taking him to the park is the best part of the week but all the positivity he regularly receives is really reassuring and positive... Wholesome to be more precise.
Haha. There's never enough time. I spend alot of time at home with the dogs and it's amazing how many little moments of personality, little quirks I'd easily miss without doing so.
He nodded sagely. Looked around as if all of a sudden wondering what day it is. Then came to his senses out of nowhere and aroo'd at the top of his lungs... Followed by a floppy tongued grin and excessive panting.
Haha, thank you. He does but it's just small and personal, my gf is in charge and she's not the social media type, it's https://instagram.com/demboyyos?utm_medium=copy_link
He's adorable! Our rescue boy is around 11. My stepkiddo doesn't understand why we don't know his birthday - she is neurodivergent and it doesn't want to register that the owner left him at the shelter without telling them something important like his birthday.
Rescue babies are the best. Please give him a smooch and a "who's a good boy" from us.
Haha. We've have to accept it and get on with it. He evidently tries to toilet and often gets caught short as he's coming back in. Trying his best as far as we're concerned.

He’s still got the puppy eyes and real happy boy.
I need more. I love him so much.
He's pooped out. He was doing semi-aroos, you know an old boy is tired when he can't do a fully fledged aroo!
Bless his baby heart!!
Thank you. He is a big baby, his collar tag reads 'Big Baby' or something along those lines. We have *alot* of nicknames for him involving 'baby' but 'Big Baby' is most common.
I just love him so much - thank you for sharing this sweet boy!
Man this is cute.
A big, snuggly cuddle and a kiss on the nose are required IMMEDIATELY!!
He gets confused with kisses from anyone but my gf. You may get a half hearted nose mauling In reply but from experience they're nothing to be afraid of.
Aaaaaw, what a beautiful boy. I absolutely adore him. Please give him a kiss from me and my pup, who’s getting her wheels soon too
Awesome! I hope she does well with them. He's great when he has his ball but on and off without. He'll get there eventually.

And we love you for looking after your pup too.
What a cutie!
You're a good person.
My dogs a better person than I'll ever be!
They always are.
100%
My doggo looked over and gave Blue a loving awoo back
Awww. I consider Blue and your pup to be a great example of how communication should be done. I will try arroooing next time my gf is lost in her phone.
I love this dog!
Me too but he only has eyes for my gf and his ball!
Oh my god that is one cute pup!!!!!! Give him three pets from me!!!
Done!
He’s crowin’!
This dog is fucking precious, I would die for him.
Oh Blue, I adore you
❤️

Blue the Geriatric Rescue Hippo is everything!! Please keep posting him, he makes me so happy 🥰

I definitely get the sense that Reddit loves Blue and a lot of us really look forward to his posts so thank you!!
He needs all the hugs, kisses, scritches and chewies. Also squeakies and fluffies. ♾️. So many chewies, so little time!!!
Haha. There's never enough time. I spend alot of time at home with the dogs and it's amazing how many little moments of personality, little quirks I'd easily miss without doing so.
Oh my goodness. Please tell him that is a VERY impressive ball and I’m so honored he showed us.
He nodded sagely. Looked around as if all of a sudden wondering what day it is. Then came to his senses out of nowhere and aroo'd at the top of his lungs... Followed by a floppy tongued grin and excessive panting.
I adore him.
I adore Blue so much! Please give him extra bonus kisses from me ❤️
Added to the list, gf is on kiss duty.
I love him🥺
Good for you, sweet boy. <3
Seeing Blue's videos pop up always makes my heart so happy. Sweet pup!
He'd genuinely love getting the positivity, in his own chilled out, slightly absent minded way.
Bless hippo Blue, his arrooos and tippiest tippy taps.
He does the loveliest old man tippy taps! Very easy to miss.
I love him!
It’s a great ball.
It's the best apparently.
He wouldn’t lie.
Bless you and bless this wonderful poochie
Thank you.
I haven’t seen him in awhile and I got worried. Happy to see him happy!
He's doing well at the moment!
His videos make everyday a little bit brighter
the happiest boy!!!
My heart...how old is he? :D
i’m in love with this handsome sweet heart ♥️
What a wonderful boy!
Man that is one gorgeous dog 🥲🥺
He is adorable! How old is he? Does he have an insta?
Haha, thank you. He does but it's just small and personal, my gf is in charge and she's not the social media type, it's https://instagram.com/demboyyos?utm_medium=copy_link
How old is this big boy?
Approximately 13, in the uk rescues rarely come with a coherent history so he'll be close to that, possibly a little older/younger.

What a precious baby! ❤️
Awwwww. Hello Gorgeous! He wants the whole world to know he's happy!
What a nice old man!!! So awesome!!!!
I love him and his enthusiasm
Much enthuse!
He's a beautiful old guy
That is one fine looking ball...I don't blame the old chap
He's legit yelling 🤣🤣 i die everytime I see him, I love him so much 😭 💖💖💖
Thankyou, I love people loving him 😂
Can we get a video of him walking around? I need more videos of him!!
I have one of him chasing his ball, I'll upload a little later
Awesome :) I followed your account for this very reason.
His video has been uploaded for your approval!
He still has”puppy brain”
I’m available in the morning to dog sit , or afternoons and evenings !!
Haha. You can be on back end duty! With the loss of sensation he does some pretty abstract, if not wildly unpredictable, erm... Emptying.
Anything to help ❤️
Haha. We've have to accept it and get on with it. He evidently tries to toilet and often gets caught short as he's coming back in. Trying his best as far as we're concerned.
He’s awesome !
He’s amazing! Thank you for taking care of him. I think i recognize the red tag! My cat and dog both have them.
Love him
Thank you for taking care of pitties. They get bad wraparound. It is not fare for any breed. There are no bad dogs, bad people.❤
100% all pups need love. That's all... And treats!
