Description Rocky
Rocky's Compatibility:
Dogs – Yes, plays well with others
Cats – No, thank you
Kids – Rocky is wishing for an adult-only home

Rocky is a smart and well-trained boy who came to the shelter after his owner could no longer care for him due to health issues. He's housebroken, crate-trained, and knows all the basics like sit, down, and stay-he's the perfect gentleman.

But there's something else that makes Rocky unique-he loves to chat! His "woo woos" will definitely add some fun to your day. He's looking for a quiet, adult-only (18+) home where he can be himself and enjoy life at a calm pace.

If you're looking for a loyal, talkative companion, Rocky's your guy! Come meet him and see if he's the perfect fit for you.

Important Notice: A “meet and greet” with any existing dogs in your home is required, supervised by our team in our play areas. We encourage bringing your family and current dogs, especially if traveling from afar. Cats are not required for a meet and greet.

Adoption Hours: Daily 12-5PM, closed Wednesdays. No appointment needed, unless the dog or cat is in foster! Apply and then call us at 317-773-4974 to set up a meet and greet with an pet in foster care.

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?

You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
