About Rocky

Meet Rocky, a charming 3-year-old Chihuahua who weighs a solid 13.5 pounds. Far from a fighter, he’s as friendly as they come, getting along well with both kids and adults. Though he hasn’t interacted with cats, he truly enjoys the company of his doggie pals. Rocky thrives on companionship and will gladly follow you around the house, making him the perfect little shadow. Occasionally, he has a mishap indoors, but that’s something he's working on. He’s not a fan of leashes, so a fenced yard is essential for his outdoor time. When he meets new people, he can be vocal until he feels acknowledged, and then he settles right down. With a bit more training and love, Rocky will flourish in a forever home that understands his needs. He’s ready to find his person and live out his sweet life together. What are you waiting for?
