My story

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

Meet Rocket – the only thing faster than his charm is his tail wagging! This handsome 2 year old black and white beauty was found as a stray in Pascagoula, and despite his stellar looks, no one came to claim him. But now, he's ready to blast off into a new adventure with a family of his own! Rocket's got the perfect mix of sweetness and spunk. He’ll greet you with a smile and a wag, and he’s always up for making new friends. With soft fur, a heart of gold, and the kind of affection that’ll have you melting, Rocket's ready to be your new best friend. He’s a treat-trained pro, loves to sit like the good boy he is, and his easygoing, outgoing personality will win you over in a heartbeat. This gorgeous guy deserves a home where he can shine, so don’t let him sit in the shelter for months like so many black dogs. Rocket’s waiting for you to come and meet him—let's make his dreams of a forever family come true!

By adopting me today you will save the life of two pets -- you'll save me and that will make room for the Shelter to rescue and save another pet.
