About Rocky
Rocky is a charming and affectionate 7-year-old dog with a beautiful red coat and super sweet eyes that have the power to melt anyone's heart. Despite his age, Rocky is full of energy and enthusiasm for life. He loves to explore the outdoors, making daily walks an essential part of his routine. Whether it's a morning stroll to start the day or an afternoon adventure, Rocky is always ready to hit the pavement with his boundless energy and curiosity.
Rocky's loving personality shines through in everything he does. He has a natural affinity for other dogs and thrives in their company. While he can be quite exuberant during playtime, he's also perfectly content to relax and bask in the sunshine with a canine companion who shares his love for both activity and relaxation. Rocky's ideal playmate would be one who enjoys a good romp but also appreciates the quieter moments spent lounging together.
In addition to his playful nature, We believe Rocky would make a wonderful family dog for households with kids aged 6 and older. His sweet demeanor and loving disposition make him an instant favorite among all who meet him. Rocky is well-behaved and house-trained, adding to his list of desirable qualities.
Rocky dreams of finding a forever home where he can truly be part of the family. He loves to snuggle and would be overjoyed to find a place where he can jump up on the couch and even share a pillow with his favorite humans at night. His affectionate nature and love for close companionship make him the perfect addition to a family that values both active outdoor time and cozy indoor moments.
Rocky's perfect family will appreciate his blend of playful energy and loving tenderness. They will provide him with the daily exercise he craves while also enjoying his gentle cuddles and sweet presence. With his beautiful red fur and heartwarming eyes, Rocky is ready to bring joy, love, and a sense of adventure to his forever home.

Adoption details
BARC adoption officers will work with you to help you find a dog or cat that matches your needs, they will discuss things like yard fencing, exercise requirements, other pets and family members, lifestyle factors, and breed experience. To help make this as quick and easy as possible, we ask you complete and adoption questionnaire (located on our website, or you can complete on when you visit). This helps ensure that we are introducing you to the most suitable animals we have available.
We encourage all members of the household to attend a meet and greet with a pet prior to adopting an animal. If the animal being adopted is a dog, we will also require existing dogs in the household to attend the shelter as part of the meet and greet.
Holds can not be placed on animals over the phone, and can only be applied at the discretion of management.
