About Rocky

Rocky’s world got upended after his family split up and moved, so he’s landed back at the rescue despite two solid years as a cherished house dog. He’s still that affectionate, loyal, small-to-medium dog everyone remembered. House-trained and social, Rocky naturally gravitates to where the people are and lights up when playing with other dogs. He’s the sort that’ll break out a spontaneous round of zoomies and then settle in for a walk — he does well on a leash, too. Kids are in his comfort zone, but he benefits from structure, particularly around food. Meal times can bring out a touch of protectiveness, though he’s unfailingly gentle when taking a treat. Rocky flourishes in homes that understand his need for predictability. He’s ready for a home that sticks, someone in need of a true, sturdy companion. Rocky is waiting for his second shot at a family that won’t let him down. Adoption inquiries welcome. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
