Rocky's Story

Meet our absolutely precious and darling boy, Rocky!<br/>“Can I come up on your lap and cuddle?”<br/>He always asks so politely! What a happy guy! SO sweet and SO gentle! He loves everyone and everything and looks at you with eyes so trusting as he eagerly follows to see what you’re up to. <br/>Rocky was estimate to be 8 or 9 years old but he acts more like 4. He’s about 35 lbs. and on the smaller side of medium. He is a quiet guy and does not mind other dogs or cats and will happily accept kisses from them. He’s friendly around chew bones, toys, water, and food bowls. I haven’t heard him bark but he does join the other dogs in an impromptu serenade.<br/>I don’t know that he has ever been in a home before but he has been a quick learner! He successfully mastered the dog door to do his business outside in the yard. We are looking for an adopter who has either a fully secure fenced in yard for him, or an adopter who is willing to keep him safely leashed outside. He is crate trained and will hang out in a crate while no one is home, with no issues. <br/>Rocky arrived in rescue having small bumps all over his body which was biopsied and came back as a condition that is a result of chronic over-exposure to the sun. This condition plus the scar around his neck is assumed that he lived outside on a chain in Texas. Despite that he is so loving and trusting. Rocky will surely benefit from a loving home where he can learn what it is to be a cherished member of the family. You too will be rewarded with him politely asking you for snuggles, with big sighs of relief while falling asleep in your lap, and with the most adorable soft snores.<br/>He can’t wait to meet someone who is ready to cherish him, and give him a loving and cosy forever lifeif that’s you, please apply to meet him!
