My story

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

Meet Rocco Farmer, a gentle 5 year old mixed breed dog who's looking for a new home to call his own. Rocco's journey hasn't been easy; he recently lost his beloved owner, which left him feeling a bit shy and uncertain. But underneath that shy exterior we know there's a heart full of love and loyalty.

Despite his initial shyness, once Rococo warms up to you, you'll find a loyal and affectionate companion who just wants to be loved. His soft fur and soulful amber eyes are sure to melt your heart, and his occasional playful exuberance makes him seems younger than other dogs his age.

Rocco enjoys leisurely walks where he can explore new sights and smells at his own pace, but he also loves a good romp in the yard, with ample time to roll in the grass (or mud). Indoors, he's content curling up on the floor (or sofa) for a cozy nap, or receiving gentle pats and scratches underneath his chin.

This resilient pup is looking for a patient and understanding owner who can provide him with the love, security, and reassurance he needs to come out of his shell. With a little patience and lots of love, Rocco Farmer is sure to blossom into the confident and happy dog he's meant to be.

If you're ready to open your heart and home to this sweet boy, come meet Rocco today and gives him the second chance he deserves.
