Handsome Rocco is a great boy. He can be a little cautious when meeting new people at first as he hasn't had much exposure to new places or people. However once he's made friends Rocco loves all the love you can give him; there's never enough pats in his opinion! He is fostered in a family home with two boys and has been fine with them. He gets excited when he sees dogs on his walks. We were told Rocco has lived with a cat however we are unable to confirm how he would go sharing his home with a new feline. Rocco has had no toileting accidents indoors since being sterilised. He loves being inside with his humans.

Rocco has a little mischievous streak and will try to pilfer extra snacks from the bench when you’re not looking if he can! But he responds well to instructions. He enjoys his walks. He lived on a property previously so wasn't used to being walked on a lead, so this is a work in progress and he is slowly getting better. He is an active dog so will benefit from regular walks and this will also help him to feel comfortable around new places and experiences.

Rocco is a sweet boy looking for the right home to increase his confidence and fulfil his love of affection too! If you think this is you, then please complete our full SAFE Bunbury application form, by clicking on Apply to Adopt below (or via the link above if not on our website).
