Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey there, I'm Rocket the chiweenie and I would like a new forever home before the new year. At first I may be a little shy or unsure with you but it doesn't last long and then you will see the amount of energy that I have and maybe even nickname me the "energizer bunny". Some people call me the "rocket man" because my large ears make me look like I'm going to just take off. I like to be held if I'm ready to go to sleep, you can try at other times if you can catch me. I love small squeaky toys, big stuffed bears and comfy dog beds to lay in at night...the staff here make sure I am well taken care of. They love me and who wouldn't since I'm so dang cute and tiny. In my previous home I lived with cats and kids. They try to put shirts and sweaters on me here to keep me warm BUT I am not having it, it always winds up off by the time the staff gets in the next day. Come on in and ask to meet the chiweenie. See ya soon.
