griffin

Pack your bags and pitch a tent! Meet Griffin, the ultimate happy camper who is ready to find his forever campsite! 🌲⛺
Griffin is the perfect blend of a seasoned trailblazer and a loyal companion. He grew up in a loving home since puppyhood, but a change in family circumstances means he is looking for a new park to patrol. He is currently being fostered by his favorite counselors at Camp Bow Wow Strongsville, so he is already an expert at the camping lifestyle!

Breed: Chocolate Labrador Retriever
Gear Preference: Loves squeaky balls and durable Tuffy brand toys
🌲 Outdoor Scouting Skills
Campsite Security: High energy at times and naturally protective of his home.
Water Activities: Loves the beach but only wades in chest-high—no swimming for this boy!
Wildlife Watch: Extremely high drive to chase squirrels and outside objects.
Campsite Requirement: A securely fenced yard is an absolute must for his outdoor adventures.
⛺ Cabin Manners & Personality
Shadow Companion: Follows his people everywhere and thrives on human affection.
Smart & Stubborn: Incredibly intelligent, though he likes to do things on his own schedule sometimes.
Structure Seeker: He thrives when he has a routine and clear boundaries.
House Trained: Both crate trained and housebroken (though expect transitional accidents!).
🧼 Grooming & Maintenance
Spa Day Enthusiast: He absolutely enjoys baths and is great with ear and paw cleanings.
Paw-dicure Rules: Does not like his nails cut, so he visits the vet for his sedated trims.
Important Trail Note: Griffin is a very large, powerful boy. He needs an experienced handler who can physically manage a 115 lb dog on walks and during playtime. He has never been tested around cats.
"In the woods of life, a loyal dog is the best guide you can find."
