My story

Please contact Gaby Riggs (gaby.riggs@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.i am groot. i am also searching for a forever family!!!GROOT NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!   Come meet groot and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (05/11) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Kensington, MD (5154 Nicholson Ln, Kensington, MD 20895)!     Name: Groot         Best Guess for Breed: Lab/Shepherd mix   Best Guess for Age: 2 years as of February 2025         SEX: Male   Approximate Weight:   37lbs   Gets Along With: Other dogs! He also does well with kids. We haven’t seen Groot with cats. We are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!    Currently Living at: DC area boarding partner; would love a foster while waiting for his forever family!   Groot is Looking For: His forever home! He landed in the shelter through no fault of his own and is oh so eager to once again have his own humans for sniffy walks and all the adventures they can dream up. He's pretty young, probably around a couple of years, and is eager to see and experience the world! To explore all the toys! To go to dog school to learn to be the bestest boy! And to make new pup and people pals along the way! What My Foster Says About Me: If you're looking for a happy dog that wags his tail all day long, this handsome boy may be the one for you!   Groot sits very nicely and patiently when putting on/ taking off his leash. He really likes to hang out with his people! Groot responds well to training and is learning to do his business outside.  He was very surprised to learn that counter-surfing is a no-no.  He's great to take for a walk - he doesn't pull hard on a leash, except when a squirrel or bird teases him.  Groot is also a good car dog.  Groot would love to find his forever home and settle in to be his best dog-self!Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:      The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament. Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at      www.luckydoganimalrescue.org   .    BE A FOSTER!!!     Fosters make it possible for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue to save and care for homeless and abandoned dogs! To learn about fostering, please contact fostering@luckydoganimalrescue.org! BE A SPONSOR!!!!     Sponsors help Lucky Dog support the many dogs we save. To learn more about sponsorship, please contact     info@luckydoganimalrescue.org   ! May 9, 2025, 5:31 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Groot, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
