My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Looking for an experienced “Pomchi whisperer" to foster or adopt Rocky, a 5 yr old 10 lb male Pomeranian Chihuahua mix. He is super cute and can be very sweet however he has suffered years of abuse so he reacts sometimes by trying to bite. 90% of the time he is an angel but 10% of the time he turns into a beast and is not for a inexperienced dog person or household. He needs someone that will spend time working with him so he learns that he is not going to be hurt and doesn’t have to react in a negative way. He is currently in a foster home and is making leaps and bounds however there are too many dogs there and people coming and going and we think a quieter less stressful home environment with allow rocky”s rehabilitation to excel. He has bit people and still try’s to bite especially when he has to go in a crate or when a collar/ harness is put on him. However once that collar and leash is on he loves going on walks.
Rocky is a work in progress but he just needs that special person that is willing and able to work with him one on one and help build his trust. He is great with other dogs and animals and has no problem with kids although we will only allow him to go into a adult only home. Rocky is basically a diamond in the rough and he just needs that one special person to help turn everything around for him. If you think you could be that special person please contact us.
