About Rocky

Meet Rocky, a sweet and mellow Yorkie mix who embodies the perfect balance of relaxation and playfulness. He enjoys quiet afternoons cuddling with his favorite human but can also energize for a bit of outdoor fun, especially when chasing after lizards or squirrels. While Rocky gets along well with people, he prefers to take his time to get to know them, making a home without young children the ideal fit. He can be shy and deserves an environment that prioritizes his comfort. Rocky does well with other dogs, particularly those that are calm and respectful, as he has had past experiences with more dominant pups that made him a bit insecure. At 15 lbs and with long, soft hair, Rocky requires regular grooming but is a good boy during baths and trims. He’s already neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, so he’s ready for adoption.
