Bookroo's summary
Lizzie discovers an ad for Rocky, a bulldog who'd rather nap than guard. Concerned about his future, she takes on the challenge of finding him a suitable home. As she fosters Rocky, Lizzie learns about his stubborn, sleepy nature. Can she find the perfect family who appreciates his laid-back lifestyle? With an older couple seeking a calm companion, Lizzie might just have the answer. Will Rocky finally find his forever home?
From the publisher
Welcome to the Puppy Place–where every puppy finds a home!When Lizzie sees an ad in the paper for a dog in need of a new home, she is immediately concerned. Why is this person so anxious to get rid of their puppy? Rocky is a cuddly, couch potato of a Bulldog. He was originally brought in as a guard dog but he would rather nap than protect a store. While fostering Rocky, Lizzie learns that the puppy is very stubborn and not open to changing his lazy ways. But every pet owner has a different need and Lizzie is able to find an older couple in need of a companion who are more than happy to accomodate the sleepy puppy’s lifestyle.
