My story

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

Foster Notes: Rocco by is a 8 month gentle man, ready to find a family. He has a rough story, adopted as a puppy from a high kill shelter just to be returned a few months later because his owner “didn’t have time for him”. After being back in the shelter for over month and being the longest residents with a potential death sentence for space, he finally was rescued and now he’s under my foster care. He’s shy but full of love, he just wants an stable and loving home.
Highlights
- dog friendly, great with small dogs
- cat friendly
- Super sweet and chill
- Good with people, never aggressive and not a barker
- Kennel trained
- Loves walks and toys
Requirements
He’s a around 40 lbs, so he needs someone who can give him walks and is patient to train him. He’s a puppy still and has so much potential to learn.
