Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rocky is a cuddle bug. He just turned 4, asks to go outside, and has never been aggressive a second in his life. I’ve had Rocky since he was 7 weeks old, and he’s been with my older chihuahua his whole life (who may also go with him if you would like so we can keep them together). Rocky is a happy and friendly pup, and it breaks my heart to re-home him. The reason being, he is an anxious dog and we now have two small children. We’ve kept them apart the past two years, but it’s becoming incredibly difficult to continue and it’s not fair to Rocky.

1) Rocky cannot and be caged. It causes him great anxiety, but the good news is he is great around the house loose. He’ll ask to go out, lounge around, and prefers to be in your lap!

2) He has a metal plate in his front left leg. He is healed, the surgery was over 3 years ago, but in cold weather he will limp as it’s uncomfortable for him.

3) Ideal owner is someone who stays home most of the time and can give lots of love to him!
