My story

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

This past year has brought many unforeseen challenges. Through no fault of his own, we need to find a loving home for our 9 year old chihuahua mix dog (born 12/25/2011). Rocco loves everyone! Although he is very good with babies and kids, he would prefer to be in an adult household or one with older kids where he can get lots of attention. He has lived with a cat & another dog in the past but requires slowly warming up.

Rocco loves to go on walks and to play short stints of fetch. He is crate & house-trained, and he can do several tricks. He LOVES to be on a lap, curled up in a blanket, or sun bathing.

Rocco is up-to-date on all vaccines and health checks (including dental work). He has been neutered & microchipped. We will send along several months’ supply of food, a food storage container, bowls, leashes, harness, crate, a sweater, a coat, toys, & all of his vet records. Please help us find him a new home!! We are heartbroken to be in this situation.
