My name is Grit and that is exactly what I am made of - grit and determination. 

You see, when I came to rescue I had literally been starved nearly to death and it has been through sheer Grit and consistent care by my fosters, that I have finally gotten to a healthy weight in just a few short months. I love food whether it be dog food or the occasional people food (don’t hold it against me but I’ve been known to do a little counter surfing   ).

My foster parents are working with me on manners while I am in my kennel as my preferred place is right next to the humans...mostly hoping for pets and food fall out.

Looking for a running buddy? I am your boy! Now that I have gained weight back, I have my energy back and I do like to run and play.

I get along with other dogs although I like to keep them away from my food. Kids, yep, they are great, especially when they eat and drop food for me. Bonus!

As for sleeping my preferred place is snuggled right up next to you either in bed or on the couch watching TV, I am not picky.

I’m ready to live my best life...all I need is YOU!
