My story

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

Rocko came into our lives ten years ago, all the way from Cali, Colombia. He was born in October 2015, just a tiny puppy when a close friend gave him to us as a gift. From the very beginning, he was meant to be family.

Bringing Rocko home wasn’t easy. He made his very first big journey on an airplane, traveling in a kennel, brave and small, not knowing that he was on his way to a new life. At just 6 months old, he arrived in the United States, and from that moment on, he has never left our side.

Rocko grew up with us. Every stage of life, every change, every move to a different City, every day, he was there. He is now 10 years old, and his personality is as unique as his story. He’s a little anxious and nervous, especially around strangers. Loud noises and people screaming make him uncomfortable, and he doesn’t like being petted by people he doesn’t know. Rocko chooses who he trusts, and once you are in his circle, you are in for life.
