Notes: Grotto is a ~4 year old Pit/Lab/maybe Chow? mix who was picked up as a stray in the western end of the county. He had no microchip or identification and no one came forward for him. Grotto is a big hugger who would very much like to not be at the shelter. Grotto went to a week long training assessment, where did great with the trainer's dogs. He was very neutral. He is very food/treat motivated as well. Grotto has been neutered, chipped, and fully vetted.
