Adopt Groot: Your New Best Buddy for Fun and Cuddles | Orphans of the Storm

One-Year-Old Shepherd Mix | Orphans of the Storm

Hey there, I'm Groot, a spirited one-year-old Shepherd mix! If you're on the lookout for a furry friend who’s always ready for an adventure, I’m your guy! Weighing in at a sturdy 56.80 lbs, I'm the perfect blend of playful energy and cuddly affection.

I recently had the pleasure of staying in foster care for the Fourth of July, and I absolutely aced it! I'm proud to say that I'm housebroken and almost fully crate trained. Plus, I totally get those human food boundaries – no need to worry about me swiping food off your plate!

One of my all-time favorite things is playing with other dogs. It's like having a daily dose of joy and excitement! After a good romp, I'm all about winding down with some quality cuddle time. There’s nothing better than lounging around and soaking up all the affection from my favorite humans.

I also have the potential to live with children over 10, making me a fantastic addition to families looking for a loyal and playful companion. With my history of positive interactions with other dogs, I promise to bring even more love and fun to your home.

So, if you’re seeking a dog who’s mastered the art of playtime, enjoys car rides, and loves to snuggle, look no further. I’m ready to find my forever home and share all my adventures and cuddles with you. Adopt me, and let’s make every day an exciting new journey! I’m Groot, and I can’t wait to be your new best friend.
