Story

Meet Rocco – a Sweet Senior Gentleman Looking for a Calm, Loving Home Rocco is a 15-year-old senior dog with the kindest soul. He’s hard of hearing and beginning to lose some vision, but his heart is as big as ever. He is fully house trained, gentle, and incredibly loving. Rocco does best in a quiet, calm environment where he can enjoy his golden years at an easy pace. He loves soft beds, peaceful companionship, and being near his people. He may move a little slower these days, but he has so much love left to give. Due to our increasingly busy schedules, we’re no longer able to give Rocco the time and attention he deserves, and this decision was made with his best interest at heart. We are hoping to find a patient, compassionate home that can give him comfort, stability, and lots of love. If you’re looking to open your heart to a sweet senior who will reward you with endless affection, Rocco may be the perfect match.

Meeko

Australian Cattle Dog

Size

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meeko is a sweet, active, almost four year old female spayed heeler mix. It breaks my heart to even be in this place. But unfortunately I do not believe that we are the right home for Meeko anymore. We rescued Meeko from death row at an overpopulated shelter in Arizona about 3 years ago. We have experience with the breed, and thought that she might be a good playmate for our other heeler. But Meeko is quite different from our first heeler and is very high energy and requires a long walk or hiking, fetch, and special attention daily. We have tried training, overnight camps, interactive games, daily exercise, mentally stimulating games, etc. On top of her physical and mental needs, Meeko is urinary and fecal incontinent. The vet believes she was hit by a car or had some other trauma event before we adopted her, and parts of her spine are fused together. She does pretty well though when she is kept to a strict feeding and potty schedule.
