About Rocky

Rocky is a charming little Chihuahua mix, likely with a hint of Miniature Pinscher and plenty of personality. At around five years old, he is navigating a significant change in his life after his family had to relocate for a military position, leaving him in the care of a loving foster. While he adjusts, he is receiving comfort and care, but what he truly longs for is a permanent family to call his own. This little guy is a devoted lap dog who thrives on snuggles, chasing balls, and playing with his toys. He gets along well with kids and other dogs, making him a great fit for a loving home. Rocky is both potty and crate trained, heartworm negative, and has been neutered and vaccinated, ensuring he's ready for his new chapter. He's looking for a family that can provide the support and warmth he deserves. Could you be that special someone to help Rocky feel at home again?
