About Rocco

Heās got just enough wrinkles to be squishable but not so many that you have to worry about all those Shar Pei health quirks. On walks, Rocco acts like every person is an old friend and every dog could be a soulmate. His skills include dramatic leaning for pets, curling up like heās auditioning for a bakery, and encouraging spontaneous smiles wherever he goes. Heās a total cuddlebug who also has a social streakāready for whatever adventure is on the calendar, just as happy to end the day snuggled tight against your side. Apartment living suits him well (heās fostering in Phoenix, so he can handle city life) and heās earned full trust inside: crate trained, house trained, never any drama. He gets along with kids, cats, and dogs alike, and his idea of personal space is basically ānone.ā Car rides? Rocco thinks theyāre great, even if he feels duty-bound to check out every passing sight.
