My story

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


Rocko is a schnauzer/min pin mix that doesn’t shed and doesn’t require any special grooming (he’s really a unicorn in that department). He was adopted when he was 1-year old from the Humane Society. He is a jumper and he hates to have his nails trimmed. He has had formal training and knows some basic commands like “sit”, “down”, and “rollover”. He still pulls on a leash. He could use more training if jumping and pulling bothers you. I would call Rocko a very “normal” dog, but he isn’t a great listener. He is healthy, but I haven’t taken him to a vet in years. He is also not up to date on vaccines. Rocko is afraid of vacuum cleaners and will bark at them until they are turned off and out of his sight. He is also neutered. Rocko must stay on a leash or he will run. He has decent recall, but he’s still managed to get loose a few times (I would have to take his bowl full of food out and shake it and yell “are you hungry” to get him to come back).
