Rocko's Story

Meet Rocko, a 3-year-old Shih Tzu mix weighing 12 pounds. This little guy is the definition of a calm, gentle companion. Rocko is house and crate trained, though he’s so well-behaved that he can also be trusted to sleep wherever he chooses around the house—preferably somewhere soft and cozy.<br/><br/>Rocko enjoys the quieter things in life, like brief walks, relaxing at home, and going for car rides. He walks nicely on leash and is happy to stroll along by your side without trying to rush ahead. Around new people, Rocko is friendly, calm, and easygoing. While he may bark occasionally, usually when excited, he is generally a quiet dog overall.<br/><br/>His foster describes him as a very sweet, well-mannered boy who simply enjoys being around people. He has shown no aggressive behavior and has also been very nice with other dogs. Rocko recently met children and was calm and friendly with them as well.<br/><br/>Rocko does appear to show some signs of separation anxiety, so he would likely do best in a home where someone is around often or willing to continue helping him build confidence when alone.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loving, laid-back companion who will happily curl up beside you and enjoy life’s simple moments, Rocko may be your perfect match.<br/><br/>His minimum adoption fee is $400 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents.<br/><br/>He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.<br/><br/>For information about this dog's breed(s), visit:<br/>http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm<br/><br/>To fill out our adoption application, go to:<br/>http://fs16.formsite.com/WishBoneCanineRescue/adoptionapplication/index.html
