The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department reported that the dog was tied to a baggage sizer and that Officer Skeeter Black, who was involved in the rescue, later adopted him. Jet Blue has officially found a new home with Officer Black and his family after they had been approved by Retriever Rescue of Las Vegas to adopt a goldendoodle since September 2025.

In a social media announcement, the LVMPD showcased the heartwarming story of Jet Blue’s rescue and subsequent adoption. The dog, approximately 2 years old, captured the hearts of the police officers involved, leading to Officer Black's family being selected as his permanent home.
