Gru and his three littermates started life in an abandoned house, fending for themselves until Animatch stepped in. Now, they’re safe, happy, and more than ready to move on to forever homes.

Let’s get one thing straight: all puppies are cute, all puppies seem to love everyone, and Gru is living proof. Right now, his days are filled with play sessions, wrestling matches with his siblings, and lots of tail wags. It’s easy to look at him and think, “He’ll grow up to be a perfect, well-behaved, friendly dog just like that!” Well… not exactly.

Here’s the reality check: when Animatch lists a puppy, we can only guess what kind of adult dog he’ll become. Genetics matter, sure—but what really shapes Gru’s future is the time, energy, and consistency his family invests.

Love? Absolutely—it’s essential. But so are training, socialization, mental stimulation, and daily exercise (and no, “daily” doesn’t mean once a week). Gru needs to meet new people, experience new places, and learn new things—every single day. Puppies are like sponges, and what Gru soaks up now will stay with him for life.

Gru and his littermates are eager to start their next adventure. If you’re ready for the joy (and the work) of raising a puppy into a happy, well-adjusted dog, Gru—or one of his siblings—could be your match.

Note: At this stage, Gru absolutely needs a home where he won’t be left alone for more than 2–3 hours at a time.
