My story

　　Rocko is all puppy! We think this guy may even be younger than 1 year old.He has puppy energy, and would make a great adventure partner. He loves to run, explore, play, and more! He just craves attention, and loves his people. He is impatiently looking for his forever family! He is house and mostly crate trained.From the past shelter: Once this guy gets out onto the play yard, he is great and seeks affection from people. He would thrive with an active family that will give him the chance to go hiking and adventuring with them. He does great with all other dogs and will make an excellent dog. He just needs the chance!From his foster: Rocko is a wonderful companion, especially if you are outdoorsy. He is very very smart, and is learning very quickly, mostly because he loves treats and food. Ive actually never seen a dog eat so fast every time, he must now what it is like to not know when you'll have your next meal. He is starting to figure out he will never go hungry again! Hes almost house trained, the reason I say almost is he will sometimes drink more water then he can handle and can't hold it to make it outside. He is working on this and catching on very quickly! He LOVES to play fetch and is still learning the "drop it" part but he seems to be learning quick. Hes not great on a leash, hes actually very strong but the harness helps a ton with that. He has been picking up on leash training, just needs continuous work. He just wants to be a good boy, and is trying very hard to make me smile at all times! He is a wonderful companion. Here is a video clip of sweet Rocko:/groups/087/permalink/7943?sfns=xmwa/watch?v=4sRqdtf3w5Y&feature=youtu.beThis sweet boy will be available at our adoption event this coming Saturday at the Fort Collins Petco 2211 S. College Ave from 10am-1pm. If you are interested in this friendly boy, please submit an application through our website aaanimalrescue.org. Please feel free to email with any questions [email protected] and size disclosure: As a rescue all of our dogs come to us from high-kill shelters or other rescues, so we do not get a lot of background or information on these dogs. We occasionally receive the mother with the puppies, but in most cases both parents are unknown. Because of this we do not know the full breeding of the dogs. We are required to list the dogs based on the breeds provided to us on their records, but they are all mixed breeds as far as we know, and we cannot guarantee the actual breeds of any of these dogs. Since the full breeding of the dogs is unknown we can also only give you an educated guess on the full-grown size of the dogs. All of the current information we have on the dogs is listed in their bio above. More information may be available at our adoption event, since a lot of the fosters turn in report cards on how the dog has done in their care when they drop them off. Adoption Process: If you are interested in adopting from us, the first step of our adoption process is to fill out an application online at http://aaanimalrescue.org/adoption_app.html. It takes us 24-48 hours to process your application and get back to you, via email. Applications turned in Friday afternoon or Saturday morning will not be processed since we are preparing for or at our adoption event. We do have applications on site at our events, but are not always able to approve them at that time and many of the dogs will already have holds on them, so we suggest you fill out an application prior to attending an adoption event. We can place a hold on one dog per approved applicant after a deposit fee has been received, please do not ask to hold a dog if you have not turned in an application and been approved, for the first hour of our adoption event, so that they can get the first chance to meet and hopefully adopt that dog. After the first hour of the event all dogs are available on a first come, first serve basis. If you already have an approved application on file, there will just be more paperwork and the adoption fee at the event, but you will be able to take home the dog/puppy that day. Since we are foster based and do not have a location, our dogs are only available to meet at our events, unless otherwise noted.
