My personality

My story

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

Rocko is a calm, easygoing Pit Bull with a gentle soul and a lot of love to give. After losing his person, he found himself in the shelter confused and heartbroken—but in foster care, he’s truly begun to shine again.

Rocko now lives peacefully with multiple dogs, including Star, and has shown that slow, thoughtful introductions help him build positive canine friendships. While he’d be perfectly happy as an only dog, he’s also open to a respectful dog sibling in the right setup.

He thrives in a quiet, low-key environment and would do best in an adults-only home where he can relax, feel secure, and enjoy the companionship he’s been missing. Loyal, steady, and deeply affectionate, Rocko is ready to open his heart again to someone special.
