My story

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

Please contact Diane Pedulla (dianep@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Sweet boy looking for loving home

ROCKY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME with no kids under 12 years of age!!!!

 

Name:Rocky      Best Guess for Breed: Min Pin/Chihuahua mix   

Best Guess for Age: 6 years as of January 2024      SEX:  Male

 

Approximate Weight: 17 lbs

 

Gets Along With:  Other dogs and cats. Rocky cannot go to a family with children under 12 years of age due to his size and breed.

 

Currently Living at: DC area foster

 

Special adoption considerations:  Rocky cannot go to a family with children under 12 years of age due to his size and breed. He also cannot live in an apartment.

 

Rocky D is Looking For: A forever home! This great little dog dreams of being on laps, licking faces, and more love! He definitely wants to go on walks and explore his neighborhood, and is up for any adventure, either walking by your side or riding with you. You see - this dog is the perfect size to go everywhere with you!

 

Rocky needs time to adjust to new situations and may be a bit anxious at first. He would do best in a quiet neighborhood. Rocky would prefer to wake up to the sound of birds chirping than big trucks and buses.

What My Foster Says About Me: Well-trained, polite and sweet, and definitely a ladies’ man! Does not bark very often and can be protective. Rocky D is great at house-training, eats and drinks well, so if you want a gentle dog that still likes to play with toys and LOVES to snuggle with you, this is the dog for you.

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online HERE .

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
