About Me
Tall, thick, and handsome. A professional cuddler and gentleman seeking a forever plus-one. My love languages are snacks, naps, and aggressively leaning my entire body weight against you while pretending I'm lap-sized. Do you have kids? I love them like they are my own already. Cats? I've been known to ignore them.
I'm what the experts call "medium energy," which means I'm equally excited about hiking trails and marathon couch sessions. Want to go on an adventure? I'm in. Want to stay home and binge-watch TV while I become your weighted blanket? Also in.

Fun Facts About Me
- Extremely food motivated. You have treats, I have devotion.
- Crate trained and proud of it. Honestly? My crate is my little studio apartment.
- Zero accidents. I'm basically a gentleman.
- Know all the important commands: sit, down, leave it, shake, and more. Currently mastering spins to the right. Left turns remain emotionally challenging.
- Certified sunbeam enthusiast. I have suspiciously cat-like tendencies and can locate the warmest nap spot in any home within minutes.
- Toy lover and occasional toy destroyer. Some squeaky toys simply weren't built for my passion.
- Sweet, loving, and adaptable - I settled into foster care in about a day because I really just want to be part of the family.

What I'm Looking For

Someone who appreciates a loyal companion. If you sit down, there is a very high chance I will sit directly on you. Boundaries are just suggestions when you're this lovable.
Sensitivity. I can be a little cautious when I hear loud noises, so I'd love a home that's not in a busy part of town.

I've been known to enjoy a variety of dog friends (from Great Dane to Toy Poodle) but can be a little choosy with who I hang around with so we'll have to take that into account.
I've been waiting in the foster system for a while now, and I'm more than ready for my forever home. If you're looking for a sweet, happy best friend who's always down for snacks, snuggles, and sunshine naps... swipe right on Rocco.

The English Bulldog is a distinctive and beloved breed known for its sturdy build, wrinkled face, and gentle temperament. Originating in England, these dogs are characterized by their muscular frame, powerful jaw, and unique pushed in nose. Despite their tough appearance, English Bulldogs are affectionate, loyal, and great with children, making them excellent family pets. Due to their brachycephalic nature, they may struggle with overheating and breathing issues, requiring attentive care and moderate exercise to keep them healthy and happy.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The goal of City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is to find forever homes for adoptable cats and dogs so...
