Rocky’s Animal Shelter
Rocky was actually a stray dog, who ended up at the animal rescue organization, Friends of Anne Arundel County Animal Control in Maryland, six times in a gap of just three years.
Love At First Sight
A young couple happened to be visiting the shelter Rocky lived in just to drop off a carload of donations, but they decided to take a quick walk through to see the dogs put up for adoption. There, Rocky grabbed their attention – and rest, as they say, is history.
Finally, A Roof Over His Head
It is really a comforting fact to know that he will finally have a roof over his head even at the last phase of life. Whether they’ve had to spend the most part of their lives in a shelter, going through abuse or neglect, or had to say goodbye to at least one family in the past, senior dogs have often borne far more than their fair share of heartache.
Old But Hopeful
“When you go to an animal rescue organization and bring home a senior dog, you’re giving a beautiful, life-changing gift—not only to the dog but also to yourself”, that’s how Rocky’s new adoptive mother feels. She and her husband brought Rocky home fully aware of the certain obstacles in the road ahead.
Don’t Lose Hope
Rocky’s new parents have a very positive approach to life, spend most of their free time with Rocky. They claim that he is a fantastic example that it’s never too late and that the best is yet to come!
