Rocco 9 yr old italian greyhound 

LOOKING FOR A HOME in VICTORIA (not suitable for interstate homes):  Rocco is a 9 yr old male Italian Greyhound recently surrendered to us after his owner became unwell.  We've had Rocco in foster care for a while to assess his needs in a new home.  He is currently living with other Italians and cats, in harmony.

Rocco is a larger sized IG, whilst he has lost some weight in foster care, he is still around 9-10 kgs.  He is fully housetrained, he is loving but independent, he is great with other dogs but doesn't tend to wrap himself around his foster friends.  Rocco cannot cope as an only dog and barks if left alone.

Rocco is also advertised on our website and if  you meet the following criteria, please complete one of our application forms and we'll get back to you.  

Please ONLY apply if you meet the criteria and if you are in a position to take him immediately - ie you are not about to go on a month's holiday etc.  Due to time constraints we will not be able to respond to people who don't meet the criteria or who are not in a position to adopt currently.  

Rocco needs the following home:

* in Melbourne or within a short distance
* another dog or dogs in the household
* quiet home with patience and time for a dog who is adjusting 

Rocco's adoption fee is $350.  He is desexed, vaccinated and chipped and in good health.
