Meet Groot!
Recently Groot enjoyed an action packed day outside of the shelter with a wonderful CACS volunteer. Special adventures like this provide valuable information about a shelter pet, which is extremely helpful to shelter staff,
as well as potential adopters.
Groot was a very good boy and here are the highlights of his busy day!
๐ฆดAdventure to Petco. Picked out a chewy, met three dogs and interacted very well, received pets and attention from a human.
๐ฆดWent on a neighborhood walk.
๐ฆดUninterested in cats.
๐ฆดInterested in chipmunks.
๐ฆดLoved drinking from the outside water faucet.
๐ฆดEnjoyed lunch on McAllisterโs patio. Chewed on his chewy, laid down for a nap, and was never interested food. Met several people, received lots of pets, and loved the attention.
๐ฆดAbsolutely loved playing fetch in the house.
๐ฆดSnores when he sleeps.
๐ฆดDoes well on car rides.
๐ฆดHouse trained.
Groot is a very nice dog! He will be an excellent dog for someone who can overlook his nervousness and sadness in the shelter and be patient with him as he learns to live in their home and settle in.

National Black Dog Day was created to raise awareness that often times in shelters, black dogs (and cats) are over-looked, with people favoring lighter-colored dogs. This leads to fewer adoptions of black dogs, who are just as deserving of adoption! Black dogs, with their beautiful shiny coats are just as loyal and loving as dogs of other colors.
Check out these amazing Black Dogs availalbe for adoption at Columbus Animal Care Services!
Won't you visit the shelter today and meet these fantastic Black Dogs!!

My name is Amelia! Let me tell you a little bit about myself.
I am energetic, sweet, and loving! I really enjoy playing! I do well with other dogs at Dog World and I enjoy time with my dog foster brothers! In general, I love to run and play, so my ideal home would be one with other dogs my size or larger.
I am crate trained and potty-trained. I love car rides and squeaky toys. I have good leash manners, listen well to my learned commands and successfully graduated from a basic training class and a โtricksโ class - so I have some fun skills and cool tricks to share.
When I go to sleep at night, I dream of finding my forever family โ could you be the one to make my dreams come true?
Please call 812-376-2505 to meet me and don't forget to complete the online adoption application, so you can take me home. https://www.columbus.in.gov/.../adoption-information-and.../
