Broccoli

My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fill out an Adoption Application HEADLINER:  Broccoli (Rock) is a puppy. Just an overgrown puppy. He has the curiosity and energy of a one year old. Is super friendly and lives to play. Rock has no idea how big he is and his whole focus is to run, jump and bounce around. HISTORY:                                              PERSONALITY: Rock is smart and can learn fast. He's curious and will observe calmly. He's friendly and will treat everyone as his siblings which can be unsafe at times. He's only one year old and with training and time he will outgrow this. Will play by himself and requires very little attention. He loves to cuddle up or lie by your feet and do nothing. He is food motivated (still growing so loves to eat). Rock is just a fun, goofy, bouncing, big clumsy dog. He doesn't chew or destroy anything (especially being a puppy) is surprising. Rock will carry his favorite toy around. He's curious about cats, his enthusiasm has frightened the cats, I don't think he would have hurt them, but they did not stick around to find out. FAVORITE ACTIVITIES:  Play fetch, walk, chew on a toy or just chase butterflies and bumble bees.  MEDICAL ISSUES:  None that we know of. WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST KIND OF HOME:  Rock is very much a puppy with no training. He's quick to pick up things so training him is easy. He has puppy energy and is super playful. A house that has adults who are strong would be perfect for him. A Family who can take him on walks and train with him would be nice. The family should be able to handle large dogs and understand that hes a puppy, a big strong puppy.  Application Fees, Adoption Donations and Rescue Policy: Please know that 100% of our fees and donations pay for the costs of rescuing dogs.
