For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
Name: Rocco
Breed: American Bulldog/Staffordshire Terrier Mix
Age: 2 years old
Background: Rocco was surrendered to the shelter. He is fully vaccinated and neutered and weighs at 60lbs.
Personality: Rocco loves to give and receive love. He loves being around people and wants to be by your side. He's the best of both worlds as he enjoys running and playing as much as he loves chilling and napping with you. Per his owner, he is house and crate trained. He knows "sit", as well. He has not been dog tested, so we recommend a meet and greet if you have another dog.
Ideal Home: Rocco would do great with an active family. He loves running and playing, so a yard would be great for him. He also would love someone who gives him a lot of attention and cuddles.
Final Thoughts: He is a sweetheart that appears loyal and seems to bond quickly to the people around him. He prefers to be with people than be alone, as he values people highly.
