Here's what the humans have to say about me:
July 2017: Rocky is a Chihuahua baby who is about 10 months old now and about 15 lbs. He is a local surrender but originally came from the Virgin Islands and was lucky to make his way to the states. Rocky has some typical Chi characteristics with a headstrong nature and being a little defensive over his body so little kids won't be a good match. He loves playing with other dogs and he goes to the dog park and runs his little heart out. He has been around cats and he will play chase but is not aggressive, though this would need to be monitored. Like most Chihuahuas he can be vocal when he first meets a new person or new dog but then is all tail wags. He is full of personality!
Like most puppies, he likes to chew and can be possessive of what is in his mouth. He is going to be working with a trainer to help his humans learn how to help him. An experienced Chi owner will just love this guy! He is a bundle of energy and he loves to run and play with his day care buddies. His foster mom says he also loves playing fetch, cuddling up next to his people while they work, and learning new commands.

Please note, we do not have a physical facility where our dogs are housed, they are cared for in our network of wonderful foster homes throughout New England. If you find a dog you would like to meet, our expectation is that, once approved, you will travel to meet the dog in the foster setting where they are feeling safe and loved.
