About this Dog
Date into Rescue: 08/06/2025 Reason for being in rescue: Lovingly surrendered by owners Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Rocket is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. On 08/13/25 Rocket had a dental polishing. Our veterinary has recommended the Veterinary Oral Health Council for a list of approved products for ongoing dental care. Weight: 12 lbs Height: 17 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $349 Fence needed? No What kind of home would be best for me? Rocket was the beloved companion to a family with teenage children. Life and financial commitments landed him in rescue looking for a homw that has the time he wants and needs. We promised him we'd get it right! Rocket adores other dogs, but truthfully, he’d be just as happy being your one and only. What matters most to him is time with his people, so he would thrive in a home where his family is home far more than they’re away. He’s not the kind of pup who’s happy waiting for hours—he wants to be part of your day, every day, all day! He is your shadow, your shirt, and your heart. Now, a little honesty—Rocket is a talker. He barks in excitement when he sees you, and when joy hits him, he can’t help but announce it to the world. Because of his vocal personality, he’d do best in a detached home rather than an apartment or shared wall situation. What is my personality like? Rocket – Your Personal Velcro Pup! If you’re looking for a dog who will love you so much he practically fuses himself to your hip, meet Rocket. This little Mini Poodle lives for being held—he’ll ask to be picked up, and the moment you put him down, he’s asking to be scooped right back up again. His favorite place in the whole world - Your arms. Don’t let his snuggle bug tendencies fool you—Rocket has an active side too! He loves to play outside, zip around the yard, and soak up every ounce of attention while he’s at it. A fenced-in yard would make him happiest, but he’d also be content with multiple fun walks a day to keep him moving and engaged. One more thing—Rocket is awesome at the vet’s office. Charming, cooperative, and calm, he takes his visits like a pro and wins over everyone he meets. Rocket is looking for a family who wants a constant companion—a little shadow who will run to greet you, play with you, and curl up in your arms at the end of the day. If you’ve ever wanted a dog that loves you to the moon and back and then some, Rocket is ready for launch. How do I act when I first meet new people? Rocket is a happy, enthusiastic boy ready to meet new friends. Other tips and tidbits: Rocket's birthday is 04/11/2017 House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule as long as a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.

Adopt Rocket Aug 25 and Receive Rocket Aug 25's Fund

$0.0 is Rocket Aug 25's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Rocket Aug 25, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Rocket Aug 25's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Rocket Aug 25 was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Rocket Aug 25’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Rocket Aug 25’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Rocket Aug 25’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
