About Griff

Meet Griff! Griff is a 2-year-old Wirehaired Pointing Griffon mix weighing around 50 lbs. With a scruffy coat of apricot, beige, brown, and white, he has that effortless charm of looking like he just rolled out of bed while remaining quite handsome. At this age, he blends playful energy with a sweet demeanor, making him the ideal companion. Griff enjoys going for walks, playing fetch, and relishing every moment with his humans. He gets along well with other dogs but can exhibit a bit of bossiness, especially towards males, so a meet-and-greet with any potential canine housemates is recommended.
