Rocky's Story

Meet Rocky! <br/><br/>Rocky is approximately 11 years old, and while he may be a senior in age, his spirit remains as bright and enthusiastic as ever. He has a genuine zest for life and a joyful energy that makes him impossible not to love. His absolute favorite thing in the world is his ball—he treasures it so much that he’ll proudly carry it everywhere he goes, always ready for a game of fetch.<br/><br/>Rocky enjoys walks, exploring the outdoors, and hopping in the car for any adventure that comes his way. He gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats, making him an easy match for many types of homes.<br/><br/>Rocky does have hip dysplasia, so he’ll need a family who can help him balance his desire to play hard with the care his body needs. He absolutely loves to run and fetch, but he’ll benefit from someone who can help him enjoy these activities in moderation and keep him comfortable and safe.<br/><br/>When the day winds down, Rocky is just as content to settle in for cozy snuggles, soaking up all the love he can get. Large in size and even larger in heart, Rocky is a devoted, affectionate companion who is ready to share his endless love—and of course, his favorite ball—with a family of his very own.
