Rocco is a 2-year-old male American Pit Bull Terrier mix. He was rescued from a life of cruelty and neglect a few short months ago and is now in need of the loving home he deserves.

His adoption fee is only $20 this month. Stop by for a meet and greet today at Palm Beach County Care & Control today! Ask for ID#1598003. For more information, call 561-233-1272.
