Rocky is a Name a Boxer dog!    

Thank you to Tony Szklany for naming Rocky.
I know there are a lot of Rocky's but I need to pay tribute to our Rocky. I wasn't looking for a dog when my stepson brought you home. You were too much work for him though he loved you so. So it fell to me to train you or was it you who trained me. Anyway you grew up with our young sons one learned to stand with you there for him to pull himself up on. You would play hard and rough with me but were always gentle with my wife. There seemed to be no end to your energy when you were young. I thought you would never slow down. What I wouldn't give to have you in my face again with one of the pull toys you used to love. In the years I had to travel for work you were always there with the kids waiting for me when I got home. Whenever I would work on something around the house you would be there near me watching what I was doing. When anyone in the family was sick you wouldn't leave there side. When you left us my 12 year old son cried my brother. I know we did not lose a pet we lost a son. Rocky was the best dog ever and I hope the family that gets this rocky gets as much joy as our Rocky gave to us. Rocky FOREVER!!! “

ROCKY  (born 12/23/06)
 
Rocky is a handsome fawn 15 week old Boxer boy who was well cared for by his family.  He was surrendered to our rescue program because of a severe allergy reaction that one of the family members developed.  Rocky was truly loved and they were very sad to see him go. 
 
He is currently being fostered with 2 other young Boxers who give Rocky plenty of exercise and attention.  Rocky is very happy and comfortable in his crate for a short time.  Cats hold the typical curiosity for Rocky but he has no urge to chase them.  He has 3 human foster brothers and loves to cuddle with them. 
 
Rocky has a wonderful disposition, loves to go for a walk, and is learning to be housebroken.  We feel that this sweet puppy has lots of love to offer the right family!  Rocky is scheduled to be neutered and will be available for adoption as soon as he recovers.
