About me Meet Rocky – Your Future Best Friend! Hey there! I’m Rocky – a spunky, chunky ball of love looking for my forever home. I may be round (okay, I’m really round), but that just means there’s more of me to love! I’m a grey and handsome fella with a heart as big as my belly, and I’m ready to snuggle my way into your life. I’m fantastic with small children – they’re my favorite humans to hang out with! I’m gentle, playful, and totally down for a good cuddle session. But, I’ll be honest, I prefer to be the only dog in the house. I’m a bit of a solo superstar, so I’m looking for someone who can give me all the attention I deserve (I’m worth it!). When I’m not lounging around looking cute or basking in the glory of being a majestic fluffball, you can find me snacking on whatever delicious treats you’ve got. I love food almost as much as I love naps, and I’ll happily curl up with you for an afternoon siesta after a good snack. So, if you’re looking for a loyal, goofy, and all-around awesome companion to share your life with, I’m your guy. I promise to bring joy, laughter, and a whole lot of love to your home. Let’s make it official – adopt Rocky, and let’s live our best lives together!
| 04/29/2025 FROM FOSTER: Still doing the same being a great dog. |
| 07/16/2024 FROM FOSTER: Over the last week, Rocky settled in nicely in our quiet home, with two adults. He bonded quickly, and is very affilliative with us both. He's still recovering and decompressing. He has slept well in his crate at night and when we aren't home. He seems to be potty trained when given access to outside -- he will stand by our back door to tell us he wants to go into the yard to use the bathroom, and likes to go out directly after a meal. seems to be nervous around children. |
| 07/10/2024 From Foster: Rocky has been doing well! Lots of rest, quiet time, and snuggles. He's still working through his cold and meds, but seems alert, is eating, etc. |
