Story
Meet Rocky!
Rocky is a 4 year old, 8 pound long-haired male chihuahua who was surrendered to CRT by his previous family as Rocky was struggling to adjust to a young child being in the home. Rocky is the typical chihuahua and when he finds his person, he follows him/her everywhere, loves to give kisses, and is just the happiest he can be. Once he loves you, you will be the center of his world. Be prepared to be absolutely adored!
Rocky is great with small dogs. He is pee pad trained and leash trained. He does not do great with children so he is required to go to a home without small children. Rocky does still mark sometimes, but his foster mother notes that that has diminished the longer he’s been in her home.
Rocky does need some time to adjust to a new home. When he first got to his current foster home, he growled any time his foster mother tried to brush him, put him in a crate, or generally do anything that Rocky didn’t want to do. After being in his foster home for a few days, though, he decided he liked his foster mother and now she can’t do anything at home without him! He can and will be snippy for the first few days, but if you give him time and do not crowd him, he will come around in due time!
Medically, Rocky has a history of seizures and takes daily antiseizure medication to prevent them. The seizures do not last long and do not happen often but do need to be monitored.
Rocky is neutered, UTD on shots, heartworm negative, and on HW preventative.
His adoption donation is $300.00.
