About Groot

Groot is a gentle giant and an extraordinary puppy, brimming with curiosity and adventure. His loving personality shines through in every playful paw and affectionate kiss, making him hard to resist. Always eager to explore, he tackles new challenges with unmatched enthusiasm and intelligence. Known as a social butterfly, Groot easily befriends everyone he meets and brings joy wherever he goes. As he grows, he'll become an exceptional dog due to his loyal and steadfast nature. Please note that potential adopters who have never owned a mastiff or giant breed must enroll in force-free obedience classes with a certified CCPDT trainer, providing proof before finalizing the adoption. Since he's still a puppy, adopters need to be home most of the day or arrange for a dog walker/puppy daycare. Groot is already up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, but the adopter will need to plan for his spay/neuter surgery at six months, in coordination with our affiliated veterinarians. Are you ready to welcome this incredible puppy into your life?
