In a affecting and impressive video on Imgur, a guide dog named Blue showcases his exceptional skills by finding a bathroom in a crowded airport. The footage captures Blue being asked to locate the bathroom, and the way he executes this task is nothing short of remarkable.

"Hey, can you find the bathroom, please?" the handler asks. Blue initially seems not to hear the command, but upon a second request, he springs into action. Blue's method involves using his keen sense of smell to detect female hormones, guiding his handler to the women's restroom by bypassing the men's room entirely.

Blue's job doesn't stop at just finding the bathroom; he also ensures the safety of his handler by constantly scanning the environment. Observers can see Blue's head on a swivel, attentively watching people and anticipating their movements. At one point, Blue stays to the left to allow a man to pass before sharply turning right to lead his handler to the restroom.

Inside the women's room, Blue's task continues as he locates the big stall for his handler, demonstrating his thorough training and dedication.

The video has garnered numerous reactions, reflecting the awe and admiration people have for Blue. Comments range from "You're my boy blue! You're my boy," to "Dogs are better humans than humans; I will take no further questions or notes on this subject."

One commenter asked, "How can the dog know if it's a men's room vs a women's bathroom? Is there a specific scent or something the dog is trained on?" This query highlights the curiosity around Blue's unique abilities.

Other remarks include, "That is f***ing awesome," and "Man, dogs are the best thing that ever happened to us humans, and we don't deserve them." Users have praised Blue as the "goodest of boyz" and rated him "11/10 good boy."

Another user shared a personal note, "I had a dog and his name was Blue, I bet ya five dollars he's a good dog too!" This sentiment echoes the love and connection people feel towards their canine companions.

The video also led to practical questions about Blue's training, with users inquiring, "Real question. Does he find it through sight...or smell?" and "Does Blue drag non-handicapped people from the handicapped stall?"

For those interested in more about Blue, a commenter provided a link to his Instagram page: bluetheguidedog (https://www.instagram.com/p/C7abJGXsT3t/).

Blue's incredible abilities and the touching responses from viewers remind everyone of the indispensable role that guide dogs play and the extraordinary bond between them and their handlers. Blue is indeed the "bestest boy" and a shining example of canine intelligence and loyalty.
