Adopt Rocky a Boxer / Mixed dog in Des Moines, IA (37767830)

Location:

Des Moines, IA

Description:

Meet Rocky! He's the absolute friendliest, most loving boxer. He is good with kids and great with other dogs. He was found stray, but is such an affectionate and polite guy. He just loves to hang out with and love on his people. Rocky is about 2 years old and weighs 65 pounds. We noticed he was walking funny, so we had his hips x-rayed. It turns out he was likely hit by a car at some point because he has a crushed pelvis. There's nothing to be done surgically for it as it's already healed weird, but it doesn't impede him or hurt him at all. He loves running around and playing with friends! He just has a sashay when he walks, and will likely develop arthritis earlier due to it. Daily joint supplements are recommended by our vet. We're lowering his adoption fee to $200 in hopes that a special someone will love this boy, despite potential future limitations. Please share to help him find his forever!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as ''Out of Town'' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.
