Rocky is only a year old and has already been through a lot.  He was hit by a car, and his owners could not afford to pay for his medical treatment.  The local animal shelter stepped in and helped Rocky through two major surgeries.  Rocky is healthy and happy, but his left hip was damaged beyond repair and he has a permanent limp. In the short time that he has been with APB, he has been checked out by an orthopedic specialist who determined that his leg is fine as is.  It helps him balance and seems to be able to bear more and more weight with each passing day.  

Rocky is a happy, playful puppy.  Yes, he’s still a puppy even though he’s a year old!  He will need an adopter who has solid dog experience and can help him work through his puppy and “teenage” years to become the great dog we know he is destined to be.  After all, he is part Boxer, and they are known to be rather stubborn!  Rocky is good with adults and with children, and he gets along with other dogs and cats (he really likes to play!)  Rocky is housebroken and crate trained.  As he loves to spend time playing outside, Rocky needs to go to a forever home with a large, securely fenced back yard.
