Story
#A5023039 Meet Rocky , a sweet, scruffy 9-year-old Akita boy who’s looking for love and a fresh start. This gentle senior has been through a lot, arriving underweight and in rough shape, but his resilient spirit still shines bright. With a cozy spa day and some TLC, his once-luxurious creamy coat will be back to its former glory. Rocky is hard of hearing and appreciates a calm, gentle approach, but he has so much love and loyalty left to give. He’s low energy, low maintenance, and would make a wonderful companion for a fellow senior looking for quiet, comforting company. Rocky is ready to spend his golden years in a home filled with kindness, peace, and care - will you be the one to give him that? -9 year old white Akita -67 pound male - may need to be neutered before/after adoption, but the shelter can likely help with this! -may also need the standard round of shots and preventatives before he can go home with you, the shelter can likely help with these as well -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 6/9/25 as an owner surrender - but we have no notes and no idea why, as Rocky is the sweetest, gentlest thing! -sweet scruffy senior in need of a spa day, to help him be more comfortable and return his luxe creamy coat to its former glory -weary but resilient - has obviously had a difficult past, given his low weight and poor condition, but is still ready and willing to give you lots of love and loyalty for the rest of his days -hard of hearing, so requires a gentle approach -needs a loving rescue, foster, or adopter to give him the care and attention he needs to live out his golden years with dignity and comfort -low energy and low maintenance, other than a few common senior ailments, so could be an excellent match for a human senior looking for calm companionship https://youtube.com/shorts/MC7TR38cg7I?si=DCrRri5nHhJPX0O3 For more information, contact volunteer Lisa at lisaa@unitedhopeforanimals.org ------- United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals.
