My story

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

Meet Rocky
Rocky is adorable, sweet, and mellow puppy around 5 months old as of mid-May. He has a gentle heart and a playful spirit. He’s still in his puppy stage and loves being around people, especially kids. Rocky gets along great with dogs of all sizes and lives with 6 other dogs. He has such a gentle disposition we think he'd do fine with cats and other animals as well. He already crate trained. He is still working on perfecting his potty training, but he’s making great strides every day.
This mellow and submissive boy is learning how to enjoy toys and playtime. He rarely barks, but when he sees someone pass by or notices you're eating something tasty, he’ll let out a little yip as if to politely ask for a bite of food —though he listens well when told to stop.
Rocky came to us from Mexico, where he was found fending for himself on the street. Rocky is a survivor, hence his name, and you can tell how grateful he is to have landed himself in a loving foster him. We think Rocky is mostly Black Mouth Cur and a super mutt of other breeds (maybe boxer, ridgeback, who knows?), but he's smaller than he looks and we don't think he'll be more than 55 pounds, although he's too young to really predict size at this point.
Rocky is the perfect mix of sweet and silly, and he's ready to find a loving home where he can continue to grow and thrive.

Rocky is up-to-date on his vaccines, microchipped, and neutered. If you are interested in meeting Rocky, please fill out our adoption application, available at: https://forms.gle/SvHPFFNF2hZVCSSSA, and we will get back to you within 72 hours. (Please do not inquire via adoptapet as those messages tend to go to spam and we may miss you!)
