About

Meet Grizz

Grizz was recently returned to the shelter through no fault of his home, unfortunately his owners' children had dog allergies. Grizz is an active dog who will thrive best with having a positive outlet for his energy. He has been on a couple Miles for Mutts outings and is always excited to go on an adventure! He loves everything about the great outdoors and could make such a great companion to an active person! He loves toys and is happy to play a good game of tug too. Grizz was reported to have great manners in his previous home. He is potty trained and will scratch at the door when he needs to go out. He is also crate trained and was originally crated when alone because he was a counter surfer but his most recent owner had no issues with leaving him free in the home when alone! Grizz can be excited on a leash but typically calms down after he gets his wiggles out. He knows the cues “sit”, “stay”, “come” “ drop it” and “treat”. Grizz is a people pleaser and loves to learn! Physical exercise is of course great, but he will also appreciate mental stimulation in the form of enrichment! We imagine him being great at dog puzzles. Grizz is very snuggly and cuddly. He loves spending quality time with his people and is happy to be included in whatever it is you're doing! It is unknown how Grizz would do with small animals, but we do imagine he would be a little too excited with them. Grizz has done well with other dogs and enjoys playing. We can always provide a dog meet and greet prior to adopting if needed! Grizz did great with the children in his previous home. He was reported to be gentle and loves all the pets and attention! If you feel that your home would be a good fit for Grizz, we would love for you to come by and meet him.
