About Rockett
Rockett is an adorable, entertaining little charmer with expressive eyes that pull you in. He strikes a lovely balance between playful and calm. Enjoying a game of fetch or a short walk, he's quick to settle in for cuddle time on your lap. Fully house-trained and a great nighttime snuggler, Rockett curls up next to you without a fuss. His face has that "grumpy old man" look, but his body is pure puppy. While he's feisty and can get possessive over high-value items, he does thrive on patience and needs a home willing to help him build trust. Rockett gets along well with other animals, showcasing his playful, well-mannered side with the cats in his foster home. This loving guy is looking for a family that values companionship and is willing to spend quality time together. He deserves a place where he can be close to his people most of the day.

His forever home should commit to regular grooming to keep him feeling his best. Your new best friend is just one click away.
