To apply to rehome Rocco, please click on the 'Come and Meet Me' button below. Applications will close when a suitable match has been found. PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO THE CURRENT COVID RESTRICTIONS WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO CONSIDER APPLICATIONS WITHIN A 1 HOUR DRIVE FROM OUR CENTRE (WR11 7RT). Rocco is a real character! He is a super zesty young boy who will make a fantastic companion if given the chance to succeed. He is an energetic chap who has already mastered some of his basic obedience (he will happily show-off his skills if a treat is promised!). Rocco can be rather overwhelmed when first meeting new humans, but does seem to really benefit from having a canine companion around to help build his confidence.

Type of home needed

A quiet but active home will be needed for Rocco, where he will not have to contend with too much going on in the home but where his need for exercise of both his body and his brain will be sufficiently fulfilled. He tries his best to be housetrained, although the occasional mistake can occur from time to time. Rocco's family would benefit from breed experience, especially in terms of Rocco's tendency to be 'all legs' and rather vocal at times. He has lived in a home previously, and may just take a little time to adjust to his new way of life in new surroundings.

More about me

Rocco can live with children of secondary school age and older, and could share his home with another dog. It may be beneficial for Rocco to have a canine companion whom he can rely upon for a little bit of a confidence boost when required. His time left alone ought to be built gradually over time, and his family will need to understand that the first meet (or two) may not be as 'hands on' as could be for some other residents.
