My story

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

Meet Rocket! he transferred to us from another rescue. His finder really wanted to keep him but her older dog did not like Rocket so she helped to get him healthy again. Rocket was in rough shape when he was found. He tested positive for Lyme disease and Demodex. After a few weeks of medications and baths he is now looking for a family. Rocket is an Australian Shepherd mix that loves people and attention. He is a medium sized guy at about 45 pounds and walks great on a leash. He shows signs of potty training. He did great with the cats at the shelter but still recommend a slow intro with them as he does like to chase. Rocket would love another active dog to play with. We really can't say anything negative about this guy. Someone will be lucky to get him, so apply quick he won't be here long!!

Rocket's adoption fee is only $150. This includes: Bordetella Vaccine, DHPP Vaccine, Microchip, Flea Treatment, Dewormer, & Spay/Neuter Surgery. As well as age appropriate 4DX Testing & Rabies Vaccine!
