I'm sad to say that I am unable to keep the big ole mastiff, Groot, I rescued and some of you have met. I rescued him through the cheboygan humane society and I'm waiting to hear back from them on procedure as rehoming must go through them, but thought I'd reach out now to see if anyone has any interest. Most of you know I'm a single mom. Groot snapped at my son and knowing my sons issues, there is far too much risk to keep him. Groot is reactive about food and certain toys with other animals. He will growl/bark and snap at the air, but has never made contact, but he has put one of my other dogs and one cat onto the floor, just sliming them, never a mark. This was already an issue, but when he did this behavior towards my son, I had to throw in the towel. Groot needs a quieter home with adults who can show him they are alpha, as he has never done any of this behavior towards me, with either no other pets or another dog who is submissive, low energy, and I suggest female. He has graduated basic obedience with a trainer, knows many commands, and is very gentle and loving and playful. He's up to date on all shots, recently vetted, and comes with many supplies and a completed embark test. I believe his adoption fee will be $125 through the cheboygan humane society. I will hopefully be able to connect with them Monday. I would like to keep him out of the kennel and find him a home before my son returns in a week. Share and reach out to me with any questions 231-622-1860. Groot deserves a great home to blossum into the wonderful dog I know he is.
Male neutered mastiff, about 2 years old, 126lb.
