About Rocky (5) (On Trial 2/3/13)
Rocky is a 3 y.o. Mastiff x, about 35kg. He is a real “toyboy” - balls, sticks, Frisbees, he loves them all !!!
Built like a front rower, but quite agile, it’s only fitting that he spends much of his day carrying his footy ball around, though his special talent is carrying a tennis ball and a stick in his mouth at the same time.
He has the most calm, gentle and loving nature. He really loves people, and is fantastic with kids.
Ricky would slot well into a young family, a devoted companion for the whole family while the kids are growing up.
But he would suit an older family also, as he is not high maintenance. \ He would do well in a normal yard, with regular exercise. He does love to go for walks, and especially swimming, yet he does not require hours of exercise. He is not barker, he is just a very chilled out boy. He loves to have a snooze in the sun or on his bed.
Rocky has the most beautiful brindle coat, and enjoys being brushed. Rocky has soft brown eyes that look lovingly up at you, until you can’t help but give him a great big bear hug.
Ro`cky is a fun loving, happy-go-lucky boy; he would make a great family member. He most of all loves cuddles. He would happily lay on his bed while you have a cuppa and watch TV.
He really will make a lovely companion and has a very big heart. He has a lot of love to give.

Adoption details
(1) The first step is to phone (preferred) or email the foster carer listed on the pet's profile (scroll to the bottom on the description). They can tell you all about the pet. They will also ask you about what sort of home you are offering in order to assess if it is a good match.
(2) Arrange to meet the pet, usually at the foster carers home or nearby.
(3) If that goes well we will arrange a property check so we can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you've selected. They will ask to see photo ID.
(4) If both sides agree, then you can pay for and adopt your new family member! The two week trial begins on the day of adoption.
