About Groot
Meet Groot, a tender-hearted 4-year-old Papillon who's looking for a patient and loving home. Arriving at the shelter with his siblings, he’s the cautious one, but once he feels safe, he’ll form deep bonds. Although he can be nervous around new people, with kindness and time, Groot opens up beautifully. Groot gets along well with other dogs, but he has food aggression, so managing mealtimes is essential. This means homes with children aged six and under aren’t suitable for him, ensuring everyone’s safety and comfort. He’s not fully potty trained yet, so adopters should be ready to support his ongoing training. This smart boy thrives in a calm environment that allows him to adjust at his own pace. If you’re ready to invest time and love into a gentle companion who truly appreciates affection, Groot is eager to grow with you. Groot's adoption fee is $350. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
