Islip Adoptable Pet Of The Week: Rocky

BAY SHORE, NY - If you're looking for a new companion, consider starting your search at a local animal shelter like the Islip Animal Shelter. Despite the coronavirus pandemic, many pets are still looking for their forever homes and shelters are still working to fulfill adoptions.

One of their available pets is Rocky, a 7 to 8-year-old male pug/poodle/pomeranian mix.

Here's a full description of Rocky from the Islip Animal Shelter Facebook page:

Say Hi to Rocky. He is 7-8 years old and weighs 22 pounds. He is a Pug/Poodle/Pomeranian mix from a house with 33 other dogs. Due to this they had no training in the housebreaking and leash department. They are sweet and ready to learn. Rocky is on the shy side and would do best in a home with older children.Since they came from a house with many other dogs they would do best in a house with other dogs. Due to their poor nutrition and them being small breed they will need dentals either upon adoption or shortly after.
