With a name like Rocket, you bet he's got energy! This handsome guy with his golden tan and black coat and gold eyes are just begging you to stop by the Humane Society's Pets Fur People in Tyler, Texas and adopt him today.

Once you take the time to go by and meet Rocket, you'll be signing those adoption papers real quick and taking him home with you. Rocket is a two-year-old shepherd and hound mix and weighs approximately seventy pounds. He may be on the larger end of the spectrum, but that doesn't mean he's lazy. Rocket loves to play and is gentle playing around small children and older children too.

Gayle Helms, Pets Fur People's executive director says he already knows some basic commands, is crate trained, extremely playful, friendly, like the companion of other dogs and cats too and he never turns down an opportunity to go for a ride in the car!

Rocket has been neutered, is current on starting vaccinations, including rabies, and has been microchipped for identification purposes. He will go home with a starter kit of food, a collar and leash, and a certificate for half-price basic obedience training from Tyler Obedience Training Club.
