Why You’ll Love Griffin:

  • Gentle and sweet with a goofy puppy charm

  • Learning fast – already knows a bunch of commands like "sit", "paw" and "come", among others.

  • Great on a leash and loves to go on walks

  • A wonderful mix of chill and playful energy

  • Loves other dogs and would enjoy a fur sibling

  • Eager to please and bonds quickly with his people

About Griffin’s Breed Mix:
Boxers are known for their affectionate, fun-loving personalities and their loyalty to family. They are playful, smart, and often referred to as “eternal puppies” because of their silly energy and love of interaction. A Boxer mix like Griffin is likely to grow into a medium-to-large companion who thrives with structure, positive reinforcement, and daily mental and physical exercise. They love to be with their people and enjoy everything from hikes to couch snuggles.

Griffin’s Story & Personality:
Griffin is just starting out in life and learning what it means to be a beloved pet. This charming black and white pup is already impressing his foster family with how quickly he picked up basic commands like “sit” and “paw.” He’s discovering the joy of toys, treats, and leash walks—and he especially loves being around people and other dogs. He has mastered his leash skills and loves going for walks but a fenced yard would be great so he can run and play freely and safely. Griffin’s balanced energy and loving nature make him a great fit for many types of families.

Griffin’s Perfect Home:

  • A fenced yard to safely zoom and explore or someone who can take him on lots of walks

  • Possibly a dog sibling to play and learn with

  • An adopter looking for a smart, sweet pup with a bright future

Ready to Make Griffin Yours?
Griffin is fully vetted and ready to find a forever family who will love helping him grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. If you’re looking for a gentle, eager-to-learn companion with the perfect balance of calm and fun, Griffin could be your perfect match.
