Meet Rocky

Meet Rocky, a sweet 9 year old little short stack who is ready for a new chapter. Rocky came to the shelter on September 17 after losing the home and family he knew. After having a routine and people of his own, shelter life has been a big change for this senior boy. Despite everything, Rocky is an absolute sweetheart. He is easy to handle, leashes up easily, and walks nicely on leash. He also has the cutest floppy ears that bounce along when he picks up the pace on his walks. At 27 pounds, Rocky is the perfect size for someone looking for a smaller companion with a big heart. He has already experienced the comfort of having a home, and we hope his next one will be a place where he can settle in, feel secure, and enjoy his golden years surrounded by people who love him. Rocky is ready to leave the shelter behind and get back to the simple things he loves: having a person, having a routine, and having a place to call home. He’s neutered and available for same day adoption.
