Rocco's Story
ROCCO EUGENE PERKINS WAS BORN SOMETIME IN THE GREAT YEAR OF 2006. SHORTLY THERE AFTER, ROCCO FOLLOWED HIS SOON TO BE SISTER AND MOM HOME, WHERE HIS FUTURE GRANDMA WAS WAITING TO MEET HIM. IMMEDIATELY, ROCCO HAD FOUND HIS FOREVER HOME. ROCCO LIVED AN ADVENTUROUS LIFE IN KANSAS CITY AND THE GREAT ROCKY MOUNTAINS. FEARFUL OF CATS AND FELLOW DOG LOVER, ROCCO WAS AN AMAZING FRIEND AND COMPANION. DURING HIS LATER YEARS, ROCCO BEGAN TO STRUGGLE. HE COULD NO LONGER TAKE CAR RIDES OR VISIT HIS GRANDMA (ONE OF HIS FAVORITE THINGS TO DO), OR GET UP OFF THE SLIPPERY HARDWOOD FLOOR ON HIS OWN. WE WISHED THERE WAS A TRANSPORTATION SERVICE FOR GERIATRIC DOGS, OR SOMEBODY TO POP-IN WHILE WE WERE AT WORK TO CHECK ON HIM. AS ROCCO'S NEEDS GREW, SO DID OUR IDEA TO START A BUSINESS IN HIS HONOR. A BUSINESS THAT COULD HELP ALL DOGS, IN ALL STAGES OF LIFE. ALTHOUGH, ROCCO IS NO LONGER WITH US, HE IS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND OUR BUSINESS AND THE REASON WE ARE SO COMPASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT WE DO.
