Notes from Underdog Rescue of Arizona, LLC

MEET ROCKO!!!

Rocko is a smart, spirited, and loyal companion looking for someone who believes in second chances. This 60-pound Staffordshire Bull Terrier/Boxer mix is packed with personality, intelligence, and athleticism.

Rocko is a high-energy boy who thrives on structure, daily exercise, and mental stimulation. If you're someone who loves outdoor adventures—biking, hiking, running—Rocko will be your enthusiastic sidekick. He's leash trained, crate trained, house trained, and knows basic commands.

Though cautious with new people, once Rocko trusts you, he’s all in—playful, goofy, eager to please, and full of love. He does best as the only pet in the home so he can soak up all your attention. (And keep an eye on your tissues… he has a soft spot for them!)

Rocko is ideal for an experienced dog owner ready to give him the time, consistency, and companionship he craves. If you're looking for a dog who will form a deep bond and be your adventure buddy, Rocko is your guy.
