My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Rocko: Your Future Best Friend!

Are you ready to welcome a bundle of joy into your life? Look no further than Rocko, the sweetest and most playful pup you`ll ever meet!

Other Pets: He may be able to coexist with a cat, but supervision is key. His playful nature might make him a bit too much for a timid cat, as he does have a curious streak! He has done well in playgroup, but meet and greets with all canine households members is ideal, to ensure they will be perfect canine siblings.

Doggie Day Out Foster Report:
Rocko is a playful ball of energy who charms everyone he meets. He hops right into his kennel without a fuss and settles down quickly, proving that he’s not only fun but also well-behaved. This good boy was a champ during his bath time—calm as can be, allowing nail trims without any issue.

This handsome fella is currently in his prime chewing era and is a bit of a sneaky one! He joyfully snatched a sneaker and pranced around like he won the jackpot! If it’s within reach, it’s up for a chew test in Rocko`s world! He’s also a big fan of playing fetch with water bottles and even had a blast popping a dodgeball during playtime. With some supervision, chewy bones, and plenty of toys of his own, we’re sure Rocko will learn the ins and outs of what’s meant for chewing.

On walks, Rocko is a dream—he stays close, frequently checking in with his handler, making him a perfect companion for adventures. Imagine watching your kiddo take him for a run; their bond will surely fill your heart with joy! Rocko`s youthful exuberance means he might accidentally knock over little ones in his quest for love and snuggles, so he’d do best in a home with older kids who can handle his playful nature.

He`s a sweetheart who knows how to sit and takes treats with the utmost gentleness. Once you sit down, don’t be surprised if Rocko decides your lap is the perfect spot for some cuddle time. If you`re ready for endless fun, love, and snuggles, Rocko is waiting for you. Come meet this lovable goofball and see if he’s the perfect companion for you!

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process consist of filling out an agreement document that specifies the adopter will have the adopted animal vaccinated for rabies and spayed/neutered as needed, within an appropriate time period. Currently the adoption fee is $50, but $40 of that comes back in the form of a voucher than can be used at local veterinarians for the rabies vaccination and/or spay/neuter procedure.

Go meet their pets

Our shelter is open to the public every Tuesday through Saturday from 12 - 5pm.

We do have officers on duty everyday (including holidays) to clean, check-on and feed the animals in the shelter.
