Description:
Why Hello there!  I'm Griffin and I'm honestly the biggest bundle of love you will every meet!  I've been in my new foster home for just a couple days now, but they keep telling me how awesome I am, so I'm loving every minute of it!
 
Although I am going to be a very big boy when I'm full grown, I am a gentle giant.  I live with 2 huskies, a chihuahua and a couple of cats, and we are all getting along famously.  The little humans in my home are also pretty cool.  They take me rollerblading and on long walks! Since I am a puppy, I am still learning how to walk nicely on a leash without being distracted, but they tell me I am already improving!
 
I am also working on not having accidents in the house.  The first day was a little rough since I didn't know where the door was, but as long as my foster family takes me out regularly I am accident free!
 
I am also learning tricks!  I can sit and I'm working on lay down.  I'm very smart, my foster mom says, and I learned that I only get a treat if I take it gently from her fingers.  
I LOVE to play with other dogs.  I will wrestle around and jump and run, but I know my boundaries and when I can and cannot use my mouth.
 
I met these fuzzy, noisy little things called "cats" here too…they seem weird, so I just ignore them and they don't seem to mind me now that they know I won't try to play with them.
 
Do you think you could love me forever?  I hope so!  My foster mom said someone better adopt me quick, because she is already falling in love…
 
XOXO, 
 
Griffin (aka- the big ox)





Please feel free to fill out an ADOPTION APPLICATION by clicking on the ADOPT button below.

Thank You! 

  or  
 

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care. 

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS.  We do not transport to potential adopters.

How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance.  Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
