Hi my name is Rocco (pronounced Rocko) I am just a baby. I was found in a dumpster and then picked up by this lovely rescue AARF from the local shelter. I was all by myself. I think my pleading puppy dog eyes worked. I love attention. I adore kids. Playing is my thing and I like toys! I know how to use a pee pad. I can be vocal when I want attention or I am hungry. I will grow up to be a very smart and stunning boy!

The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip.
Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.
It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.
NOTE: In our bios, we provide information based on our volunteer's experience with a particular dog; such as temperament, training, and ability to get along with others.
AARF is a 501(c)3 Non Profit, all breed, no kill organization. Our group is always in need of donations in order to continue to give the needed medical care to our rescues. Adoption fees do not begin to cover all of the medical costs. Any donation, no matter how small is a big help and is greatly appreciated. Please help us to continue to help them. Thank you.
