About Rocky

Rocky is a young male mixed breed dog that recently arrived after his owner could no longer keep him. His background provides some insight, but our dedicated medical and behavioral teams will continue to assess him. Given his previous home, he may have some training, although we can't guarantee that all of it will transfer seamlessly into a new environment. Pending interactions with other animals at the shelter, Rocky's temperament is being carefully observed. Our staff is excited to spend time getting to know him, and will update his profile as they learn more. If you're interested in bringing Rocky home, please fill out an adoption questionnaire! It's important that all household members, including children and any resident dogs, meet him to ensure it's a good match. If things click, same-day adoptions are encouraged. He's ready for a forever home where he can flourish! Adoption fees cover his neutering, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations, and a small bag of food to start off on the right paw.
