My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
In Perkinsville-Meet Rocket, a 6 month old Aussie mix who came to New England after being rescued from a kill shelter in TX, along with his siblings.
Rocket is in need of a loving family to embrace his silly personality. He is eager to please and loves to cuddle. He loves his stuffy toys and is house trained with a doggy door. He sleeps in his crate, knows the basic commands sit, stay and come and would really enjoy a good puppy class. He needs an experienced dog owner who practices patience and positive reinforcement.
He is wonderful with children, but is fearful of cats. He has a natural heel on his leash but needs to be reminded to settle at times. He is certainly a special being who will make his future family complete.
Rocket has his required vaccines, and is neutered and microchipped. He is being fostered in Perkinsville, VT, along with his sister Sparkles
If he sounds perfect for you, please fill out our application:
There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family and $125 transport fee which is what we paid to tranport him from Texas to New England. All adoption fees are used for future rescue efforts.
