rocky

Hi, My name is Rocky! Although I had only lived in a shelter for my 1st 10 mos of life, I am learning that living in a home is awesome! I'm a big ole baby, and my foster family says I don't realize that I'm too big to be a lap dog. That doesn't stop me from trying though. I'm sweet, goofy and playful, and so grateful for affection and attention. I like other dogs and ignore cats, as they don't impress me much. I'd prefer to be involved in everything my humans do and follow them around like a shadow. I also love toys, tennis balls, treats and an occasional cupcake from the counter, although I'm learning that isn't the right way to get food. I'm crated trained and now potty trained.

My history, I was pulled from the St Tammany Parish Shelter during their "Fight for 50" campaign during recent Mayday status. I didn't do anything wrong, but because no one had adopted me, I was one of the longest residents and ran out of time. Thankfully I didn't lose my life, but I still don't have a home.

If you want to meet a pup in person, Once Upon a Tail Rescue does adoption events at PetSmart in Covington, LA on most Saturdays with many of our adoptable dogs there.

Don't forget to complete your application ahead of time, so you don't miss out on the pup you've connected with. If pre-approved, you have first priority & can usually take home your new best friend the same day!

*Please note that there is no obligation to adopt by completing an application.*

**All dogs are required to have complete vet services, including shots, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip, which are included in the Adoption Fee. Some dogs may still require completion of these services due to current age, size, breed and/or health. All vet services must be done at the vet clinic used by Once Upon a Tail Rescue in Mandeville, LA.

**Every share brings a deserving pup one step closer to their forever home!
