Meet Groot 🌱

Groot is back with us after previously being adopted a few years ago. Sadly, due to his former family no longer being able to keep up with veterinary costs, he found his way back to HALO. While change hasn’t dampened his spirit, Groot is now hoping for a forever home that can love him for the long haul.

This big, goofy lug truly loves everyone — dogs, cats, adults, kids… if you’ve got a pulse, Groot is probably your friend already. He has a happy, easygoing personality and is just as content being a couch potato as he is romping around the play yard with his dog buddies. He’s currently part of a dog pack here at HALO and enjoys playtime, which is also helping him shed a few pounds to keep his joints happy (even though his chubbiness is undeniably adorable).

Groot did struggle with allergies in his previous home. While we haven’t seen issues since he’s been back in our care, any adopter should be prepared to monitor and manage allergies if they pop back up in a home environment.

He does best with supervision when out and about — if left loose and unattended, he may help himself to some chewing projects. However, he’s a perfect gentleman in his kennel and settles in nicely.

Groot’s favorite things include:
• Car rides
• Toys
• Cookies (very important)
• Walks
• PEOPLE

He also knows how to sit and shake, proving he’s not just handsome, but polite too.

If you’re looking for a lovable, social, slightly squishy best friend who will adore you endlessly, Groot may just be your guy. 💚
