Rocky's Story

Sweet, sweet, sweet — meet Rocky!<br/><br/>Rocky is an adorable 2-year-old Chihuahua/Pom mix who is as charming as they come. He’s a super friendly little guy, about 14 pounds, and currently recovering like a champ from his neuter.<br/><br/>Rocky plays beautifully with everyone—big dogs, small dogs, males, females—and even does well with dog-savvy cats. His foster has not needed to crate him during the workday, and he has been a perfect gentleman with no inappropriate behaviors. He loves to play ball, and his zoomies are legendary… he is so fast and leaves all the others behind during outdoor chase games!<br/><br/>On walks, Rocky does pull a bit, but he absolutely loves taking in all the sights and smells. He has met the neighbor kids and did great with them. At night, he crates without a fuss, even though it isn’t his favorite. When the house was a little chilly one night, his foster let him sleep in bed with the other small dogs—Rocky was in heaven, curled up close and quiet as can be.<br/><br/>He’s also catching on quickly with potty training, especially when kept on a consistent schedule.<br/><br/>Rocky is a truly wonderful little dog who deserves the very best family ever!

Illinois Doberman Rescue Plus's Adoption Policy
The first step in meeting our adoptable animals is the breed/species-specific application at www.ILDobeRescue.com. We do a vet check, landlord/association verification, and home visit to ensure a permanent placement for our wonderful animals. Thank you for considering rescue! We look forward to working with you.  IDR+ is a network of foster homes; therefore, we do not have a location to visit. The first step in meeting our adoptable animals is the specific application at www.ILDobeRescue.com for a Doberman, Plus dog (non-Dobe), or cat. Approved adopters are then directed to our foster homes.
