Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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


In May of 2023, I responded to an animal complaint. Upon arrival, a lady advised she had been feeding a stray dog and it became aggressive towards her other dog. I first met Rocko as he came from down the road and came right up to me. I am K9 Sheriffs Deputy. Immediately I knew the dog wasn’t what he was portrayed to be. Through further investigation I found out the lady attempted to feed Rocko near her other dog. In attempt to give Rocko a chance at life I brought him home instead of letting animal control take him. In our parish the chances of him getting put to sleep instead of a chance is high. I immediately placed Rocko around my other dogs and he had no issues. He is food aggressive but that is easy to manage. He is so lovable and I’ve tested his temperament In so many ways. He is a big baby but I can’t give him the yard and attention he deserves. Please consider giving him a chance.
