IF YOU APPLY and WE APPROVE YOU it means we are assuming when you meet any of our dogs and fall in love you're ready to ADOPT AND TAKE HIM OR HER HOME! GOOFBALL GROVER Where do I begin? Well Grover is absolutely not an Australian Shepherd of any kind - so there’s that however he does seem to be a Border Terrier mix giving him some Border Collie-type behaviors. Grover is a hilarious, entertaining, fuzzy-faced mini -mini mighty hot mess of an older puppy who has captivated our household and provided non-stop entertainment. According to many of the AI Breed Research portals Grover’s pictures most often come up under Border Terrier, Puggle depending on the angle, Chihuahua and Chiweenie; we see the Chi but the only dachshund-like feature he has is a longer body than a Chihuahua. Grover is extremely SMART, loves to please and is actually really mellow most of the time. Grover has his favorite plush toy that the same size as him, a Yeti, and a 12-inch untreated rawhide that has quickly dissuaded him from having “puppy-mouthing” behavior! Grover can leap all furniture in a single bound even with the Yeti or bone in his mouth! You don’t have to pick up his toys for him he does it himself and it helps his energy. But really he played for an hour today and has gone from napping on the patio table to napping on my bed! Grover was examined by a vet who said he could be 8-10 months old but he’s very healthy, well-behaved and won over the entire vet staff. He has a cherry-eye which we are working on repairing - I’ll update here but it can possibly be “massaged back in” (not my words; vet said it) or if necessary removed during his upcoming neuter. Regardless Grover is a cutie and for a puppy he’s amazing. He sleeps through the night, he’s crate trained and nearly housebroken, he’s not destructive, he’s not a barker and he would LOVE A BIG DOG PLAYMATE! Finally: he is a snuggle-bug. He is a Larger Breed in his disposition and he is a very affectionate, gentle puppy. We are looking for both Foster or Forever for Grover, a foster with playful dogs is what he deserves. But he’s ready to begin his forever life with the lucky family who is chosen for him!

General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city.
