Griffon's Story

🐾 Profile: The Noble Stoic Age: 5 years Weight: 35 lbs Breed: Beagle cross (compact, sturdy build) Energy Level: Low-to-moderate (selective bursts only) Personality: A quiet noble at heart, this pup carries themself with calm dignity—until you earn their trust. Initially reserved and observant, they like to size up the room before engaging. Once comfortable, their playful side peeks out in gentle, endearing ways: a sneaky toy toss, a sideways grin, ( literally)or a soft nudge asking for attention. He is a certified Velcro dog—deeply affectionate, happiest when close, and absolutely thriving on cuddles and praise. Loves being admired and will happily soak up attention like royalty on a velvet cushion. Temperament Highlights: Stoic and composed at first meeting Sweet, playful, and goofy once bonded Extremely affectionate and people-oriented Enjoys routine, calm environments, and cozy naps Prefers quality cuddle time over chaotic activity Ideal Home: Perfect for someone who appreciates a calm companion with a soft, playful core. Thrives with gentle structure, steady affection, and lots of physical closeness. Great for relaxed households, couch companions, and anyone who believes love should come with a side of dignity. Signature Move: Leaning their full 35 pounds into you and sighing dramatically—because cuddles are serious business.

Four Feet & a Heart Beat's Adoption Policy

At Four Feet and a Heartbeat, our goal is to ensure every dog is placed in a safe, loving, and well-matched home. As a no-kill dog rescue based in Lacombe, Alberta and serving Western Canada, we take responsible placement seriously—without making the process overly complicated. Before reaching out, please review the following policies: - Adopters must be 18 years of age or older. - We adopt primarily to Alberta and neighboring provinces, though out-of-province adoptions may be possible if transportation is arranged and paid for by the adopter. - A pet-safe home is required. Some dogs may need 6-foot fencing based on observed behavior (e.g. climbing, prey drive, etc). - Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered and fully vaccinated (5-way, Rabies, and Kennel Cough). - We do not adopt dogs for breeding, resale, or as gifts. - Adoption fees vary by dog and help cover food, shelter medical care and ongoing support. We rely on self-selection to help identify the right matches and ask that prospective adopters review the adoption agreement and dog bios before contacting us.
