Rocky's Story

Rocky is the sweetest and most handsome gentleman you will meet. He takes the gold in cuddling and kisses. He is also very playful and absolutely loves his toys. He is incredibly affectionate and loves to show you how much he adores you. His favorite thing to do is curl up next to you for long movie marathons. He even loves to have his head on your lap when driving. He is great in the car and always up for an adventure, but his other favorite pastime, besides cuddles, is playing with toys or playing ball with you. If you have a fenced in yard, he would just love it! He lived with cats and other small dogs, so we know this boy is also a fan of fur friends. He used to be best friends with the kitty he lived with at foster. But, Rockys story had just turned around after Dog Lover Rescue saved him from a kill shelter in Texas, when he went to what we thought was going to be a wonderful foster. Shockingly, he was instead abandoned when the fosters split up, moved and left Rocky behind, alone in their apartment! Without food or water, alone for who knows how long, this boy was not found bc he was barking or crying or scratching….nope! Rocky was found by someone who finally entered the apartment to clear it. He was patiently waiting and met officers with a wagging tail and the sweetest personality, as told by the deputy. Rocky is obedient, quiet, loving and sweet and everything wonderful you could hope for in a dog! Apply NOW to adopt this angel and show him he is finally in a home that will never abandon him, again!<br/><br/>3 yrs, 55 lbs, neutered & vaccinated<br/><br/>Please ONLY Submit Applications directly through the rescue: www.DogLoverRescue.org<br/><br/><br/>***Do NOT send any inquiries thru Petfinder, as their website is having serious issues since relaunch in December and we have not been receiving anything.

Dog Lover Rescue's Adoption Policy
Once an application has been submitted, which is done online at www.DogLoverRescue.org, we will reach out within 24-48 hrs. Make sure your applications are COMPLETE! It is important to share as much detail as you can on those- about yourself, your family and your pets. This helps us with our MATCHMAKING approach- forever should mean- forever! We work so hard to match you with a dog that is truly a great fit and vice versa and have an impeccable record with this that we are so proud of! We then schedule a in-person meeting/ home check and get into the details! We love these opportunities to meet the families, other dogs and pets! Occasionally, we will do virtual meeting/ home checks for out of state homes we are not able to travel to in a timely manner. ***Please note: we prioritize those that submit applications and regret that we cannot answer individual emails, as that would be a whole other job in and of, itself. We receive an overwhelming amount of messaging daily and because we are always fighting the clock for our rescues in kill shelters, we have come to determine putting applicants over all else is the most efficient way. It also lets us know who is truly serious and willing to give their time for an application, and then worth our time for consideration. We greatly appreciate those that respect and follow our process! All questions will be answered in those follow up calls and meetings! Rest assured, we are committed to all of our applicants to finding the most wonderful match and together, saving a life in need!
