Description:

Rocko is a funny character, he might be a little older but no one let him know he should be slowing down. Rocko has lived with other dogs and cats similar in size. He does not do well with larger dogs. He has also not had experience living with kids.

He is ALL IN no matter what he is doing - from playing tug to cuddling. He loves to snuggle and cuddle most of the time with some crazy wild play in the evenings. He can be quite energetic for brief periods and is very excitable.

He has a heart murmur that he's had his whole life and it's a low grade. It is not a concern at the moment but something that an owner should be aware of. It appears that he has mature cataracts and has reduced vision. The former owners do say that he seems comfortable with his eyes and the low vision doesn't seem to affect him much. Adopters should be prepped for potential follow up care with an ophthalmologist for the rest of his life.

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
