Meet Rocco

So in our time here in AZ we have gotten to know our brother's dog Rocco an Italian grayhound and he isn't your typical dog.  This dog eats carrots for snacks, he has to be invited before he will come lay with you and rather than sitting down and catching food in his mouth he has to jump up (usually pretty high) to catch it in mid-air.  He is a little hyper and taking him for a walk is more like a brisk jog, which is a good way to force you to pick up the pace in your exercise regimen.  In true dog fashion he does chase one of their cats Nala every once in a while and he likes to wrestle with Jonathan just about every night, which I might add he looks pretty vicious when he does.

I think my favorite thing about him is that he was born and raised in AZ but his favorite toy is a bean filled furry sweet corn toy.....like father like dog I guess....
