Hi, I'm Groot and I am a special little boy who is now on the search for my new forever home! Is that going to be with you?
As I am a Maremma I will need a family that understands my breed and what I was made to do. As a guardian breed, I will need a lot of socialization and ongoing training to make sure that I become a nice well rounded little man. You will need to understand the management I will need in a home due to my breed behaviors. As a young pup I will need solid and secure fencing as well as indoor and outdoor access. I will not be suited to apartment living and will need a large yard to roam in. It would also be best for me if there was someone home all the time while I am settling in. This will help me build my bonds with my new family and make me feel safe in the home! This will help me feel calm and relaxed throughout my day. I have shown some social behaviors with other dogs but can still show some fear with big boisterous dogs so we will have to make sure if you have a canine, we are the right match. I will need to meet all family members on the day of my adoption especially any little kids to make sure we are the right fit.
