Griggs - Benchwarmer!

This dog is one of the many wonderful animals available for adoption at WHS. Despite their great looks and lovable personality, they have not found a new home yet and have become a benchwarmer. To get them back in the game and into a home, we have reduced their adoption fee. We know they will make a great addition to someone's family – come meet them today!

Griggs is beloved by everyone in the shelter who has met him. Volunteers and staff alike agree that this happy guy is an absolutely amazing dog. If you come visit him in the shelter you may see him barking at his window, but that's just because you're on the wrong side of the glass instead of giving him pets! Griggs has been described as a "gentleman," "cuddle-bug," and "gentle giant." On walks he has a lovely little trot and doesn't seem to acknowledge other dogs. In addition to walks and scratches, this boy LOVES squeaky toys, and it is so much fun to play with him. Although he's lovely with adults, Griggs has a history of being a little too much for young children; therefore, he would do best in a home with older children or just adults. Warning: adoption of Griggs may result in immense levels of joy and an increase in laughter in your life. Come visit the shelter during adoption hours to meet this lovely boy in person!

Sponsor animals in need!

From food to vaccines, collars to beds, medical care to behavioral support… this work is critical to homeless animals in our community, but the expenses add up quickly. Please consider sponsoring some of the costs of care for animals at WHS!

Please Note

Every animal is an individual and WHS works hard to make great matches for our animals and adopters.  Some animals may have placement restrictions or requirements established by WHS based on shelter observations and previous home histories.  When meeting with your adoption counselor, they review each animal’s medical, behavior, and placement needs with you to help you find an animal who is compatible with your home environment and your lifestyle.  There are no time limits at WHS, all animals in adoption have as long as it takes to find a new loving home.  Stop in and speak with our adoption counseling team today – we look forward to meeting with you.
