About Rocco

Adoption Fee: $0
German Shepherd / Rottweiler
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

Rocco our Rock Star needs a foster or adopter. He is a mature gentleman, with some arthritis that we are treating with meds, and nothing stops him from enjoying his walks, swimming in the lake and even some light running after a ball. Our boy is 12 yr old, weighs about 70 lb and is healthy in all other ways. He believes in live life to the fullest, day by day. He asks so little from his people: a soft bed, a carpeted floor, good food, a good bone and belly rubs.. Rocco loves to be brushed and have his butt rubbed. He used to be city dog with the hustle and bustle of the city. Presently he loves the suburbs, with walks in the woods, swimming the lakes, wading in the creeks, and laying in the sun. He loves car rides. His owner died many years ago and he hasn't had a real home for a long time. We are looking for a long term foster home, where he can live out his years with someone who he can bond with and love. WJVA will be responsible for him medically. We just need to find that home that wants a companion. A older adult home would be best. And even though he is good with most dogs, he would be best being the only dog. He loves to play still, but forgets his back legs are not as young as they used to be. All of us in WJVA love our boy and want the best for him. He needs a little time to warm up, but food and a squeak ball makes him feel relaxed and he will be your friend. He actually is good with most bigger dogs, but because he hasn't lived with another dog before we feel he would do best as the one and only. Please if you would like to meet Rocco, please email: [email protected]
