More about ROCCO

Meet our gentle giant Rocco who came to us through no fault of his own!

Rocco has a lovely history of being friends with everyone he meets, even though he did take a little time warming up to us. New owners need to be aware of Rocco's sensitive side and not overwhelm him to begin with. With time and patience, he will be the most affectionate and loving boy.

This 40kg lad does not realise his size when it comes to other dogs and can be over enthusiastic which some dogs do not always appreciate, given his size. Rocco could live with another dog if they are the right match for him and who would be happy & comfortable with a big bouncy boy bundling towards them. New owners will need to be confident with socialisation to ensure Rocco learns good manners and respect all dogs of all different sizes.

Rocco is looking for a home with experienced owners, preferably with large guarding breeds, and would need a secure private garden for his ongoing training without distractions and safe place for zoomies.

If you are interested in our lovely Rocco, please contact the rehoming team at: rehoming@battersea.org.uk, ensuring you have first registered for rehoming on the Battersea website: https://www.battersea.org.uk/rehoming.

Please note due to volume of enquiries we may have at any time, we will only look to contact homes that we feel best meet all of Rocco's needs.
