Not every dog is here to be your best friend 24/7… and Gru Gru is here to make that very clear.
Gru Gru is a Shih Tzu with opinions, boundaries, and absolutely no interest in being treated like a stuffed animal. He can be sweet, affectionate, and even a little funny but only when he decides the timing is right. This is not a dog that tolerates being fussed over on demand, picked up, or handled unless he likes you.
Gru Gru has a very strong startle reflex. His previous home knew this and unfortunately chose to ignore it, which resulted in multiple bites. This wasn’t a “bad dog” situation, it was a human boundary problem. Gru Gru communicates clearly. He just needs someone willing to actually listen.
What Gru Gru needs:
A quiet, adult-only home
Someone who understands and respects dog body language
A home where he can exist without constant handling or pressure
A person who is okay earning his trust instead of expecting it immediately
What Gru Gru is NOT:
A lap dog
A dog for children
A dog for someone who wants something cuddly 24/7
A dog who will tolerate being picked up or hovered over
Gru Gru isn’t for everyone but for the right person, he will be incredibly rewarding. He doesn’t need saving. He needs understanding. If you’re the type of person who respects space, reads dogs well, and doesn’t take things personally… Gru Gru might just be your guy.
To move Forward with a meet and greet please fill out an adoption application:https://www.screvenspayandneuter.com/adoptabledogsYou will be contacted by adoption coordinator if they have questions or you are approved to adopt._______________________________________________***If you choose to adopt (before all vetting is complete) and use your own vet rather than our local Snip Clinic for these services, you do so at your own expense and it will not reduce the adoption fee. Adoption fees are NON-NEGOTIABLE.1.) All dogs are adopted to the best possible match and calling or emailing the rescue will not speed up the process or liken your chances of being chosen.2.) You will be notified by adoption coordinator if your application is approved. Adoptions are set up by appointment only. We do not have “hours” of operation.3.) If the dog is posted as Available on Petfinder, it is available but may have pending applications and meet and greets set up.4.) If you are not ready to immediately meet the dog you are applying for, please do not apply- we are too busy for window shoppers! Every dog is available to be taken home with you at the time of the meet and greet.5.) We recommend you bring a carrier with you to transport the dog home as some can get carsick. Adult dogs and most puppies over 6 months of age will require a slip lead.6.) Adoption fees can be paid with Cash, Check, Venmo, PayPal and credit Card.Screven County Spay & Neuter Corp.SYLVANIA, GA
