Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rocky was found wandering a neighborhood in south Austin. After 5 days of reported sightings, no one could catch him, but he was looking tired and hungry. We set a trap and caught him the first night.
Rocky looks like a shepherd someone shoved into the body of a chihuahua and that's just the first indication of his goofiness. Rocky loves to play, and will make you laugh endlessly with his antics. He's a rough and tumble little guy and loves attention. He gets along with other dogs, but does need a slow introduction. But he is in a foster home with 6 other dogs and doing great! He is mostly house trained, but does have a few accidents here and there. He does fine in a crate and sleeps in a crate overnight currently. He likes to chew on things and will chew on things you don't want him to if you don't give him an option. But he redirects easily on appropriate items as long as you provide them. Rocky is a young, hilarious little guy who will give you a lifetime of laughs!
