How extraordinary, I am with Mother of Chickens, never heard of puppy blues, or Rescue Dog blues either!
You either want a dog or you don’t!
OK they are not always easy at first but you don’t give up on a baby the first time it cries. Ofcourse they are unsettled at first, you are there to give them love and confidence. Send the poor Dog back.
I will echo this - I read the original post when it had no replies, and I had to walk away because I really couldn't think of anything to say. MoC and Chiffy have hit the nail on the head for me - I have never EVER heard of 'puppy blues' and goodness me I think I've probably seen more puppies finding homes than the average person.
Send the poor dog back and give him a chance with people who will accept him for how he is, be calm and reassuring not panicky and anxious which will wind him up hugely, and love him from the start - he has had to put up with enough in his short life without having this as well
