Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rocco is a 11 month old Schnauzer/Poodle mix. He's a gorgeous boy who weighs about 20 pounds.
Rocco enjoys playing and when he relaxes he likes to be a lap dog. He is very well housetrained and gets along fine with other dogs.
Rocco came to us after being surrendered to a local shelter. The shelter adopted him out but he was returned because he bit a stranger when they tried to pick him up. The adopter did not have any problems picking him up but returned him anyway. Rocco will need a confident owner who will be willing to invest some time and effort into training him. He is a great boy who is not overly energetic for his age. He will make a great companion for someone who understands his quirks.
