Rocky's Story

Hi there! I'm Rocky, a handsome 6-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix with a heart as big as my smile. I was surrendered to the shelter when my previous owner had some life changes, and I’ll be honest—it was a pretty challenging time for me at first. I wasn't quite sure what to think of my new surroundings, but the people here have been so kind. While it took me a little while to warm up and realize I was safe, my sweet and gentle personality is finally starting to surface.<br/><br/>Now that I’m feeling more comfortable, I’ve been busy showing off my skills. I love playing with my squeaky toys, I’m a total pro on a leash, and I consider myself a professional couch snuggler. I’m very curious about other dogs at the shelter, but due to my lack of social skills, I would do best as an only pet. Because I’m a bit of a sensitive soul, older kiddos who can appreciate my nature would suit me best. I have so much affection to give, but I will need a little time and patience to adjust to a new home and routine. If you’re searching for a smart, loyal, and loving companion, I’m your boy! Apply to meet me today!<br/><br/>Every dog, cat and child will react differently to a new pet, so proper and safe introductions are always important for a smooth and successful transition.<br/><br/>My adoption fee is $225.<br/><br/>We do not have open hours for public viewing of our adoptable animals. We are by appointment only.<br/><br/>If interested in adopting, please complete our adoption application. Once your application is approved, an appointment will be scheduled to visit with your desired pet.<br/><br/>ONLINE APPLICATION can be found at: www.marshfieldpetshelter.org/adoption-application<br/><br/>All animals are vet examined, spayed/neutered, blood tested and microchipped. If old enough, they receive routine vaccinations.<br/><br/>Thank you!
