What WeRescue Scout knows about Rocky

Rocky thrives with an active owner or family who can meet his high exercise needs and have time to bond with him as he warms up. A home with kids is ideal since he has lived with them before, though introductions should be calm and supervised given his initial shyness.

Good to know

  • Needs a highly active household with daily exercise.
  • Dog-compatibility uncertain; female dog intros possible but require careful management.
Good with kids Good with other dogs estimated Not recommended for homes with cats High energy — needs exercise Knows some basics Some pet experience helps estimated Needs space or a yard estimated Very affectionate Low-maintenance coat estimated

Shelter

We are an all-volunteer 501(c)3 No Kill shelter which receives no funding from Mower County, the City of Austin MN (shelter location) or the state. All funding is through adoption fees, donations and fundraisers. All funding goes to care of animals, zero payroll. We work with local law enforcement and the city pound so that no animals are euthanized once their hold time expires and they are unclaimed. Our average population runs about 30 dogs and 130 cats. In addition to rescuing and sheltering animals, we partner with local vet to sponsor periodic reduced cost spay/neuter clinics, and six times per year we host an on site visit of the MNSnap.org mobile surgical vet unit which provides reduced cost spay/neuters. We are small in numbers , but huge in heart and dedication.
