Rocky is in an SGS foster home, since he has come into SGS's care he has come on leaps and bounds, his foster dad says he will make a cracking pet, he's a cute cheeky boy who loves nothing more than cuddling up to you, he'll also jump up and keep your seat warm when you leave it.

As you can see he is a very dignified looking boy and will make a wonderful pet :throb:

If you have room in your home and your hearts for Rocky please visit our website www.scottishgreyhoundsanctuary.com where you can view details of our homing policies and complete an application form or email us at info@scottishgreyhoundsanctuary.com or phone us on 08456439335
