Cobalt Blue’s Story
AKC Name: Smith-Zalewski’s Cobalt Blue, CGC, CGCA, RN
DOB: 3/29/18
AKC Number: SS 04412501
Cobalt Blue was born from the first litter of our foundation dam, Bailey. He has remained at Laurie and Joe’s Labs to carry on Bailey’s lines. Cobalt’s personality can be described as reserved, tender hearted, human focused, and eager to please. Cobalt has earned his Canine Good Citizen title and his Community Canine title ( for public access to pet friendly venues) and his Rally Novice title ( for competitive obedience). Cobalt has sired litters for us which have included puppies who have gone on to become Diabetic Alert Dogs, School Facility Dogs, Restaurant Facility Dogs, and beloved family companions. Cobalt has recently been recruited to provide outside sire service to a nationwide service dog program.
At 8 years of age, Cobalt is still very healthy and active but his litter sizes are decreasing despite having good swimmers analyzed by two different reproductive vets. We are doing the ethical thing and retiring Cobalt so our dam owners aren’t spending their resources on litters which we know will be small.
Cobalt has had a good run and now it’s time for him to be just a beloved companion pet for us.
The good news is that “son of Cobalt “ resides nearby and his owner has allowed us to use him for this pairing with Brandy for our yellow litter in the future. He is fully health tested, has a wonderful temperament, and is also available for other approved females. Please inquire and I will provide details.
