My story

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

Hi there, I'm Rocket - a dashing black and white Husky with a pair of mesmerizing blue eyes that'll capture your heart. Life has been a bit of a journey for me, but I'm ready for the next chapter with a new family who appreciates my vibrant personality. When it comes to people, I'm a social butterfly. My tail wags a lot, expressing my sheer joy when I meet someone new. I might even jump up, eager to get close and shower you with affection. I've been working hard to learn my leash manners, too. I'm not just a people person; I'm also a furry friend enthusiast. I've been loose, wiggly, and playful with other big dogs. What am I looking for in a new home? Well, a place where I can be the center of attention, of course! Due to my high prey drive, it's best if there are no cats, critters, birds, or small dogs around. I haven't had any experience with small humans yet. In a nutshell, I'm a friendly, affectionate dog with a bit of a playful streak. I may have some fearful behaviors as I learn so many new things, but with the right family, I'm sure to become an even more confident and loving companion. Ready to make me a part of your life's adventure?

Medical History: I appear to be a healthy adult, but it's always a good idea to set up an appointment with my new vet soon, so that we can meet and make plans to keep me happy and healthy!
