"Project POOCH, quite simply, changes lives. We operate a kennel inside a youth correctional facility and pair currently incarcerated youth with shelter dogs. The youth learn kennel management, positive reinforcement, grooming, and training techniques. The youth learn what it means to be depended on by another living creature and what it means to be trusted and relied upon. And, they learn what unconditional love feels like—sometimes for the first time. Our dogs get trained, loved, and adopted into their forever homes. There is no limit to the amount of time a dog spends in our care, and we are focused on the individual needs of each dog."
"ROCCO" is AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at "PROJECT POOCH"
listed as "Catahoula mix?"neutered male, approx 3 yrs, 70 lbs(still filling out)
My name is Rocco, or Roccito Burrito, or Rocco Paco—we do a lot of nicknames around here!—and my POOCH team think I’m one of the best boys that ever was! I was a favorite at the Marion County Shelter and was there for a few months, but no one was interested in me. So I got to come to POOCH and learn lots of things and make new friends. Now it’s time for me to find my forever family. Is it yours?
Special Considerations: Is curious about countertops; adopter will need to work on potential for counter-grazin Needs: Someone who loves sweet goofy big boys!
