Rocky
Rocky is a male dog staying at Pet Alliance of Greater Orlando.
Rocky has had all of his shots, and he's been neutered. He also has work to do on house-training etiquette.
Notes from Rocky's caretakers:
This big boy weighs in at 109 pounds! But, don't fear, he's a gentle giant looking for a forever family! Rocky is 3 years old and a mixed breed. He does great with children and people of all ages. He can be aggressive with other dogs when it comes to food, and has not been tested with cats. We always recommend a meet and greet if you have other pets at home. Rocky's new family will need to make sure he remains on heartworm preventative for the rest of his life as he has already been treated and defeated the disease! The big lush needs some leash and obedience training, but he just wants to be loved on and give you a hug!

Toby
Darling Toby is a male dog staying at Pet Alliance of Greater Orlando.
Toby's ideal forever home would be both a cat- and kid-free environment. He's had all his shots, and he's been neutered. Good news: he's already house-trained.
About Toby:
I am a sweet boy that loves attention. I do take some time to warm up. I would do best in a home with no children and not a lot going on. I can get very nervous at times, but once I get to know you I'll be your best friend!
