This helps Labradors and Friends Dog Rescue Group with pet care costs.
Foster or forever home wanted, meet Rocky. This sweet young dog has already had a little bit of a rough start in his life. He was first brought to the shelter allegedly found as a stray at a mere 2.6 pounds and about 6 weeks old back in June of 2024. Rocky would be adopted a couple of weeks later by what should have been his forever family.
Fast forward about a year and a half now and the family felt Rocky was too "hyper" for them. So once again, Rocky finds himself back in the shelter where he started as a small puppy. This is an unfortunate scenario in today's overcrowded shelter environment. The need to hold an animal to allow time for the family to find him is not needed because they willingly surrendered him due to not wanting him any longer. Rocky quickly came out on the "at risk" list and when we heard his story, we just couldn't let this be the way Rocky's story ended. We hurried to get together a plan so Rocky gets the second chance he deserves.
He is a sweet, fun-loving young pup that is eager to please. The previous family didn't do much in the way of training so Rocky needs a patient family to teach him what's expected of him. Luckily, he is young and smart so learning will come easy. Rocky just came into the rescue so we are still getting to know him. The volunteers that interacted with him said he is very sweet and gets very excited but settles down nicely. Once we get to know Rocky a little more we will update his bio.
If Rocky seems like a dog you'd be interested in meeting, please fill out an application at labradorsandfriends.org. Rocky is located in Southern California.
