Goofy & Playful, This Guy Will Make You Smile... Meet Rokie!Hood River Adopt A Dog Rokie

 

If you're new to our blog, we write about a local shelter dog each week and have for over a year now. Of the 60+ dogs we've featured, all but one have been adopted. Let's keep that up! As mom to four rescued shelter dogs, I urge you to adopt a shelter dog, don't buy from a breeder. The Hukari Animal Shelter currently has 17 dogs, the most I've seen in the 2+ years I've been involved with them. If Rokie doesn't strike a chord with you, there's sure to be another pup who will capture your heart. Check them all out: www.hoodriveradoptadog.org.

Rokie is just the sweetest Golden Retriever Mix, is around five months old and weighs in at 40 pounds. If those huge paws are any indication, this guys got a lot of growing to still do. Rokie is big, goofy, silly, loveable and an all around fun guy. He's up for anything and loves adventures and playing. He does need some discipline, though, and needs a firm hand to teach him some manners. This guy is going to make someone an awesome running or biking partner, he loves water and adores riding in the car.

Rokie is too young for neuter but is current on shots and microchipped. The adoption fee for Rokie is $200, plus neuter deposit, cash or check only, please. The adoption fee is charged to help recover standard average veterinary expenditures for each dog. Please call ahead to meet Rokie in Odell at the Hukari Animal Shelter 3910 Heron Dr, Hood River OR 97031. Call the shelter for more information 541-354-1083. Adoption hours are Wed 5-7 & Sat 9-11. You can download an application at: www.hoodriveradoptadog.org. You can fax your application to 1-877-833-7166.

Roki looks like he would make a great companion for an active young person.  He's quite the handsome fellow: love the ears!!

Gretchen,

        It sounds like you have had luck with rescue dogs; unfortunately we chose a pup that was so abused he is a biter and is now in the pound for a 10 quarantine. We are going to have to take him to training if that does not work...Here in Texas one more bite and he goes down that is the law. : (

I am so surprised to hear you say that at five months Rookie is to young to neutered.  That is absolutely not true with the perfected early spay neuter techniques used today.  Even here in NC animals need be only 6-8 weeks old to be spayed or neutered at the Humane Alliance of Asheville, NC.  We have had several of our rescue litters spayed at 8 weeks and all have done wonderfully. Two of the litters we have been able to follow have dogs now reaching a healthy 13 and 11 years old.  Please have your group contact them at  http://humanealliance.org/fix-your-pet  and ask for info on early spay neuter and their wonderful training opportunities.  Thanks for all you do.

Good morning Gretchen. Rokie looks great, playful and whimsical. I volunteer with a rescue group in my area and we spay and neuter all our animals b4 they are adopted and it happens b4 5 months. Nonetheless this sweet pup (love the ear) is a happy one and I hope he finds his forever home today. My heart breaks for the one that hasn't found a home. Please feature him again.
