About Rocky

Meet Rocky! Rocky is an adorable Chiweenie mix, about 10 to 12 months old and weighing around 16 pounds. This little guy is the ideal size for anyone seeking a smaller companion, and he boasts an amazing personality to match. With a sweet temperament and a loving nature, Rocky is truly a good boy who’s hard not to adore. Rocky came to us after his previous family faced an accidental litter. We’re grateful they entrusted him and the rest of the little family to our care, where they can get the veterinary attention they need and find loving homes. In foster care, Rocky has really thrived, showing us just how wonderful he can be. Affectionate and playful, he seems to charm everyone he meets! One standout quality about Rocky is his fantastic relationship with children of all ages. He loves to cuddle, relax, and play with them, making him a perfect addition to families. Rocky also gets along well with other dogs and enjoys having some chew toys to keep him entertained. Remarkably, he hardly ever barks, which adds to his already pleasant nature. His foster mom has barely heard him make a sound, reinforcing what a well-mannered boy he is. Not only is Rocky affectionate and playful, but he’s also a quick learner in terms of household manners. He’s both crate trained and house trained, thriving in his foster home. Rocky loves going for walks and rides smoothly in the car. Whether it's an adventure or a quiet day at home, he’s thrilled to join you. Rocky is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and will have a health certificate before adoption. He truly is perfection in a small package—loving, friendly, and great with kids and other dogs. If you’re ready to welcome a loyal companion into your life, Rocky could be your perfect match.
