Cock-a-Doodle-Do! Meet Rooster! This 10-month old baby chick is an egg-cellent companion and came to us from a local Massachusetts shelter after being found as an emaciated stray with indications of being crated allllll the time. He has gained back some much-needed weight, strength, and confidence, and is ready to start his forever with some lucky family!
Our Rooster is outgoing, inquisitive, and playful, all wrapped into a perfect pittie puppy package. He likes to take long walks at his leisurely pace so he can sniff alllll of the smells and this social chicken can’t wait to say hi to anyone and everyone. Our unfeathered friend is usually a loose leash nature walker, unless he sees something of high value. Rooster is good in the car, dog-friendly, housebroken, and a super-duper snuggler. He is a typical and age-appropriate puppy who has so much love to give! He jumps, runs, bounces, and would love to enroll in a basic obedience class to bond with his people while working his brain.
And those satellite ears?!?! OMG – we fell in love before we noticed who was actually attached to them! Rooster’s eyes are certainly a window to his soul and it is obvious he is innocent, sweet, and brand-new to this world…taking in all that life has to offer, including meeting new friends. This domesticated bird is a foodie at heart – a lover of treats, and, well, everything else. He is just a big goofy puppy, ready to tigger-bounce his way into the hearts of his tribe. Our Rooster doesn’t crow loudly before dawn, and is content to just hang out, doing exactly what you’re doing. He is a LOVE! Because of his age and lack of history, older kids would be best for our sweet Rooster.
Rooster’s top 3 priorities: 1. A family who loves to love – with or without canine siblings! 2. A family who enjoys outdoor (and sniffing!) adventures. 3. A family who has time to spend with this GEM of a puppy!

Note: We spend well over $500 on the average intact adult dog coming into our rescue, which covers all standard vetting including spay/neuter, equipment, food, and preventative care while with us. The cost only rises if a deserving dog needs any additional vetting, and even simple appointments add up fast. While our adoption fees are intentionally lower to find great homes more quickly, we will gladly and graciously take additional donations to help offset these fees!
