Griffin

In September 2013 we adopted Griffin. I wouldn't even have to attach a photo to remind staff at MHHS who he is, but I did anyway. Just the mention of his name made everyone there laugh. He is the goofiest dog! You told us he was quite a handful and mouthy, but that he's still only a puppy and that's normal.

We had just lost our 11-year-old lab. My daughter and I fell in love with Griffin and he seemed to bond quickly with her. When we brought him home, he adjusted very well. He has a large back yard to run in and he's a quick learner. He knows to sit and wait when we feed him and sits at the back door when he wants to go out. He gets along well with our other dog; they play tug with toys. He will also sit at the living room window and wait for my daughter to come home. And he likes to help with the laundry, because he is forever going into the bedrooms and stealing clothes.

Thank you for all you do.
