Our newest intake, Rocco, has rolled his way straight into Furgiven and all our hearts. This little guy has quite the story and has faced some major challenges already in his young life.

Rocco initially ended up in shelter care in Indiana after his owner left him with a roommate and moved out. The roommate was then spotted tying Rocco to a tree with a note indicating he was unable to continue caring for him. The shelter quickly intervened and gathered as much info on little Rocco as they could. They learned some of the hardships that Rocco has experienced, that he can be slow to warm up, but is the sweetest little guy once he learns it's safe to open up.

Rocco has shown us nothing but his sweetness since arriving into care. He loves a good lap snuggle. Mobility wise, he is partially paralyzed, and has quite a few wounds on his hind legs that are in the process of healing. He has since been fit with all of his adaptive gear, including a wheelchair, that will allow him to experience the world with his disability completely accommodated. He LOVES being in his wheels and is already a pro at zooming around.

Donations towards his care will help us cover his ongoing medical care, and rehabilitation needs. We have opted to begin with having spinal x-rays done immediately to help us better understand his trauma history.

Thank you so much for supporting our little Rocco!
