My Story
The boy with all the rizzthats Grizz!
Meet Grizz, the most adorable Wheaten Terrier/Corgi mix we have ever seen! At 1.7 years old, this sweet boy has lived most of his life waiting to be loved the way he so deserves. He came to us from Swainsboro, Georgia and is so excited for his second chance at forever with a family. His beautiful greyish silver coat and wiry fur look so cute with his black beard and deep brown eyes. He is fully grown at 26 pounds.
Grizz is full of love and happiness, which he shows you every time you are near. He just wants to be close and give you all of his attention. He is a very playful guy and enjoys walking on a leash, which he does very well. He is a great dog for adventures to the park, romps around town, or nights in with friends. He is such a loving pup who appreciates having people around from whom he can soak up attention.
Grizz is friendly with other dogs and would do great in a home with cats and kids. Grizz is a very kind, precious guy with a unique look that is equal parts cute and handsome. He is so ready to spend the rest of his days being your best friend, and he cannot wait to meet you!
Grizz is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped.
Given the conditions Grizz originated from, upon rescue, he tested positive for Heartworm disease. Thanks to Home for Good Dog Rescue, Grizz has completed his Heartworm treatment.
*Heartworm disease is a serious and if left untreated, fatal disease. It is caused by foot-long worms (heartworms) that live in the heart, lungs, and associated blood vessels of affected animals, causing severe lung disease, heart failure, and damage to other organs in the body. Mosquitoes are carriers of heartworms and have the ability to infect dogs all year round, especially in the Southeastern portion of the United States and during the summer months.*
**Please note: completing an "adoption inquiry" via Adopt-a-pet/Petfinder does not constitute an HFG Dog Rescue adoption application. All adoption applications must be completed on www.hfgdr.org**
HFG Dog Rescue is a 100 percent foster-based rescue located in Berkeley Heights, NJ with a sister location, The Almost Home Wellness Center, in Aiken, SC. All of our dogs are rescued from kill shelters in SC + GA and once ready for adoption live in loving local NJ foster homes until they find forever families of their own. Our fosters begin basic training, housebreaking, and leash-walking skills to help pair you with the perfect pup for life!
