About Rocko

Hi friends - Rocko here 🐾

I’ve been with my rescue since November 17, 2022 - that’s THREE winters now. I didn’t find my forever home for the holidays, but I’m still holding onto hope that my people are out there. Maybe you’re reading this right now 🤞❄️🐶

A little about me:

I’m a 4-year-old, 56.5 lb pit bull / mystery mix with great manners and a calm, loving personality. I’m past the wild puppy phase and solidly in my “loyal companion” era.

🐾 Why my foster thinks I’m pretty special:

  • House trained
  • Knows sit, high five, and leave it
  • Professional-level cuddler
  • Dog-friendly with other medium to large dogs
  • Great with older kids
  • Happy, affectionate, and easy to love

I’d thrive with a fenced yard and maybe a big dog buddy - but mostly, I just want a home that I can truly call my own.

❄️ If you can’t adopt right now, come skate tonight, have fun, and know you’re helping pups like me get one step closer to home!

💙 If you are looking to adopt, maybe this is our moment! 🤞

🎁 Adoption Fee: SPONSORED (our community is truly amazing 🙏)

Thanks for supporting my rescue - and for keeping hope alive, even after the snow melted 🐾💜

How adopting works

  1. Apply. Fill out the application for Rocko on Shelterluv.
  2. Review. Every application has to be approved by at least three board members.
  3. Home visit. We set up a visit to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone.
  4. Go home. Pay the adoption fee and start your life together.

More about adopting from ARF

Every dog here costs something to care for

Vet visits, vaccines, heartworm treatment, food, the occasional emergency. ARF runs on donations and fundraisers. That’s what pays for all of it.
