About Rocko
Rocko is a 6 year old desexed male staffy cross. He is an indoor/ outdoor dog and is house trained. Rocko is good with other dogs but not good with cats, birds or pocket pets. Rocko is scared of thunder and will cry and scratch at the door to come inside. Rocko is good with children, however he likes to jump up on them when he first meets them so older children would be best. Rocko will bark when people walk past the fence or when a bird flies near however other than that barking is not an issue. He sits and waits for his command to eat, he likes to chase balls and ropes although he doesn’t like to give them back - it’s all about the chase for him. He is very strong on the leash so will need a physically capable handler. He loves chew bones, pats and attention.
Ideally we would love to see Rocko adopted with Nora (who is also listed). We have made the incredibly difficult decision to separate Rocko and Nora for adoption as they are unable to stay with their owner for much longer and there has been no interest in the pair.
Adoption details
If you are interested in one of our animals please phone or send an email to rescue@btcanimalshelter.com.au and we will reply as soon as possible.
A questionnaire will need to be completed which will allow us to ensure we are placing our animals into the right home. Once the completed questionnaire is received, we will respond by email / phone call to discuss the animal in further detail, and answer any other questions you may have. Please note that completing the questionnaire does not place you under any obligation to adopt. We can arrange a meet and greet for you (and existing pets) to spend some time with the pet and see if they are likely to fit into your life.
If you decide to adopt, payment is made and you can welcome your new pet into your life!
We offer a 2 week trial period.
