About Rocky
Rocky is a sweet boy looking for a fresh start and a loving home. As a 3-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix, he weighs approximately 9.7 lbs and is full of potential. Rocky does well with other dogs and would thrive best in a home that has a confident resident dog, who can help him navigate a world that may seem overwhelming at times. Having come from a hoarding situation, Rocky needs a patient adopter who understands his shyness and can introduce him to new experiences gradually. He hasn't been well-socialized with new people and may show fear in unfamiliar settings. A calm and understanding approach will allow him to blossom into the loving companion he is meant to be. Rocky dreams of a forever home filled with snuggles, tasty kibble, and a cushy bed. He’s ready to become a cherished part of your family, offering all his love and loyalty in return. If you think you could give Rocky the gentle, loving guidance he needs, he might just be the one for you! Click apply to start the adoption process.
