Adopt Groot

Mannelijk

Groot recently arrived to us last month after very narrowly avoiding being euthanised in a pound several hours away from Hull. The pound pullers had tried everything and in a last ditch attempt to save his life, they contacted rescues further afield. When we recived their email, we'd just had a dog head off to their forever home and so Groot jumped straight into the car of a volunteer and headed over to Oakwood Dog Rescue to move into the still warm, empty kennel. Groot has showed to be nothing more than an absolute gentle giant and absolutely loves being with his people. Due to Groot not yet been castrated, we've not been able to mix him with any of the other dogs. He's seen the girls in passsing and is calm with a soft wagging tail, the boys do not like him and have been super reactive but Groot barely even flinches, he's super chilled out with them all, even when they're being so unwelcoming to him. Until Groot is neutered and his hormones have settled, we won't be able to do any dog mixing with him and so couldn't look at considering a home with another dog at this time. Due to his breed that tends to have natural prey instinct, Groot is not able to live in a home with cats. Groot has shown to be a very chilled out boy. We think he's one of those dogs that would have a mad 5-10 minute blast off lead and then be content with snoozing for the rest of the day.He is still under assessment regarding this though, with him being new in. Groot is very quiet in his kennel, we barely even know he's there. We believe in a home that he'd be ok to be left 4-5 hours but this could need building up over time. Groot walks absolutely lovely on a lead. Groot has shown to not have any form of training. He does occassionally do a 'sit' for us and he is spotless in his kennel but it's likely that he won't be fully housetrained and this may need to be worked on in a home.
