My story

A portion of my adoption fee has been sponsored by my friends at Tito's Handmade Vodka. The adoption fee sponsorship credit of $375.00 will be applied during the contract process. Hi, my name is Rocket! I'm an owner surrender from Minnesota. My name is Rocket, but my foster family calls me Mary Lou. Mary Lou has been living with us for quite a while now and she is such a fun and loving girl. She is very energetic and LOVES games! Mary Lou enjoys playing with her toys and chasing balls in the backyard. She even made up a game of hide and seek and trained us how to play! Mary Lou is very playful and incredibly smart! A good nap on the couch or under your desk at your feet is also appreciated, because it can wear a puppy out playing so hard. It is one of the cutest things ever when she gets the zoomies; she is so fast! Mary Lou, is also good about entertaining herself and will settle down and work on a bone if it isn’t time for playing together. Mary Lou would be best in a home where she isn’t left alone for too long. She has never had any accidents in the house and isn’t destructive at all, but she definitely prefers to be in the company of others. Mary Lou, is on medication for her anxiety and is working hard with her trainer; she has come a long way since she first arrived at our house! She’ll need to continue with medication and her adoption includes some training sessions. We’ve seen a ton of improvement, but coordinated introductions with people continue to be necessary. A home with a fenced in yard and no shared walls are also necessary. A quieter street would be amazing for her. Going on walks, meeting other dogs, and dealing with loud noises are other things she can work on with you and her trainer. From her non-reaction to the rabbits and squirrels in our backyard it appears she doesn’t have a strong prey drive, but it is unknown how she would do with cats. For now, she would thrive being the only animal in the household. Everyone, even the “not dog people”, fall in love with Miss Mary Lou. If you can put in the time to help her feel safe and see how great life can be, you will be rewarded with her charming smile, her sweet snores, and a buddy who is always at your side. Mary Lou is a real gem!
