Story
152 days. That's how long I've been waiting. Waiting for someone to see past my big smile, to look into my eyes and understand. I'm Rocky, a 3 1/2-year-old terrier mix, brown and white, full of love for humans. But there are stipulations, they say. No cats for me, and I do best with older kids, those over 12. Maybe that's why my days here stretch into eternity.I watch as others come and go, tails wagging as they find their families. But not me. I'm good with dogs, they'll tell you that. And I have a smile that could light up a room. But still, here I am, slowly declining, day by day.If you could see into my heart, you'd know how much I long for a home. A place where I can feel safe and loved, where I can give my loyalty and my big, goofy grin to someone who understands. Could you be the one?🐶❤️Rocky is neutered, up to date on all core vaccinations and preventions. If interested, please come into the shelter or feel free to give us a call if you have any questions at 740-314-5583.Give us a call at (740) 314-5583 for more information!ADOPTION APPLICATION:All adoption applications are completed at the shelter unless otherwise noted.FOSTER APPLICATION:Want to be a hero for a homeless animal in need?
