Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rocco is a gorgeous red colored Pittie mix. He is a male that is about 2 years old. He is a bigger boy that weighs about 70 pounds.
This poor boy was picked up as a stray at a high-kill AC facility where he was to be euthanized....thankfully rescue stepped in to save his life before it was too late. Rocco is brand new to rescue and we are still getting to know him. We do know that he is very nice and friendly with people, but he does not like cats...so he would need to be in a home without any small animals. He also rides well crated in a car.
If you would like to get more information on this sweet boy and find out more on how to make him a part of your family, please contact Nancy at plaidpjs@sbcglobal.net or call 773-631-8999.
His adoption donation is $200. He is fully UTD on all vaccines, is neutered and is HW negative.
Rocco is currently in paid boarding in Steger, IL while he waits for an open spot in a foster home or can find his forever home.
