Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Rocky, the feather-weight champion of Adopt-A-Pet! While we don't know too much about him as he's new to AAP, our first impressions of this little one are, well, he's little! - weighing in at a whopping 4.06 lbs. of SWEETNESS. He's a quiet little boy, not at all hyper. We scooped him up the same day he got dumped at Chicago Animal Control and are scratching our heads as to why someone would give this little angel up. So all we can tell you at the time of this writing is that he's been very polite, quiet, a little reserved, and true to his breed, he enjoys being held. He also has pretty unique coloring and markings for a chi...rather like a Holstein cow (for all of you cow officianados out there).
Rocky should be adopted into a home without young children, just because he's so very small. This report is written just after being taken to his foster home where he was befriended within minutes by the other small dogs there, with frolicking erupting immediately thereafter.
Rocky's adoption fee of $300 includes: vet exam, heartworm test (neg), distemper combo vaccination, bordetella and rabies vaccinations, fecal exam, routine deworming, flea control, microchip and neutering.
