Rocky

by Mary (NY)

We rescued Rocky who is a Boston Terrier/Chihuahua mix when he was a year old, weighed 11 lbs. was skin and bone and we weren't even sure that he'd make it. He is now 3 yrs old, weighs 22 lbs and is the most lovable, cuddly, expressive, loyal, playful, fun dog I have ever known. He has the softest floppy ears and loves to go for walks and ride in the car and his only downfall is he is a huge resource guarder (probably from being a rescued dog or a Chihuahua) and will growl if you get near him when he has a treat. You can also see the conflict within himself at times when he's growly like that (acting Chihuahua like) and then he realizes what he's doing and comes over and snuggles and hugs you like the sweet Boston Terrier. He is such a joy and we are incredibly happy we found him.
