Meet Rocky, a 17-year-old old boy who is a gracefully ageing canine. Aside from a graying muzzle, physical and visual discapabilities, he still has his groove – and makes a great companion nevertheless. Disowned by his former owner due to his old age, Rocky’s life seemed like it was the end for him – he’ll never experience love again.

A new arrival at Anne Arundel County Animal Control, Rocky thought he was about to euthanized due to his old age – until one couple decided to give him another chance at life.

This couple was all too generous – despite the possible and unavoidable grief that has yet to come, they still strived to care for Rocky, and made him as happy as they could.

Rocky is now loving his new home – he is even his favorite treat, a dog ice cream concoction named ‘Frosty Paws’! His owners knew that they’ll have to say goodbye one day, but meanwhile, they’re doing the best they can.
