Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Cosmo Rocket came into AMMF after the local shelter called and he was in the last group that was found nearby someone's house where they were presumed to have been dumped. Cosmo will be neutered in a few days, as he had a retained testicle that is going to require a more invasive surgery. He is fully vetted otherwise and is a very sweet boy. He loves playing with other dogs and toys and will do anything for a treat. He is a quick learner and is working on his house training. Cosmo has been in rescue since he was roughly 6 weeks old and is ready to go to his forever home. His ideal forever family would have another four legged canine companion, a 6 ft stockade fence (to keep his hound nose in check), a couch to chill on and possibly a bed to share if allowed. Cosmo would like an active family that could help him work off his puppy energy. Please consider adding this sweet boy to your family!!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 22, 2024, 3:49 pm
