Description:
Rocco is a charming 2-year-old German Shepherd/Blue Heeler mix weighing in at 40 pounds - ready to steal your heart. Hailing from Kentucky and having recently made the trip to NJ, this sweet boy is all about love and attention. With his friendly personality and playful spirit, Rocco is the perfect companion for anyone looking to add some joy to their life. Rocco thrives on human interaction and is eager to be by your side, whether you’re going for a walk or just relaxing at home. This quiet boy is looking for a loving family that can provide him with plenty of snuggles and playtime. Rocco has been said to be so sweet and simply loves to be loved. He's housetrained and up to date on all age appropriate vaccines. He's very active at first but once Rocco settles down, he's very relaxed and gentle, especially when he finally came off his leash and was able to run free and play in a fenced in yard. Rocco does great with other dogs, and adores being in the car. He is working on his leash skills but loves being out and about. To help adjust to leash walking in a new environment and as an added bonus, we are offering a training package with Rocco. He does jump and pull since he's not very familiar with walking on a leash but is smart and can surely be taught quickly. A fenced-in yard is also recommended. If you’re ready to welcome this wonderful pup into your life, apply for adoption at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application. Rocco can’t wait to meet you.If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: [email protected] THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!
