Rocket

I’m the new guy here at the shelter, however, things are looking up.

My favorite part of the day is play groups; it’s kind of like recess and I get to play with the other dogs…a very cool and fun thing to do.

I’m really starting to like all the attention from people too. Why don’t you come and hang out with me for a while? I can be your best dog ever if you give me a chance! Woof!

Rocket is a one-year-old terrier mix. He weighs 40 pounds.
