Meet Rocky, the old faithful doggie who stayed just long enough on this planet to meet his little sister. . “Rocky thrived in his new home,” the couple, Beth and Michael Clark, wrote.

In 2015, a young Fort Meade couple adopted a 17-year-old canine – Rocky – from a shelter

When Beth got pregnant, he even participated in her pregnancy photoshoot

“When I started showing, he was a lot more attached to me”

After the birth, as soon as they took their baby girl home, they noticed Rocky was unwell

A few hours later after greeting his human sister, he quietly passed away at the age of 18

“Someday your mom and dad will tell you all about your first dog, Rocky…”

“I hope our story helps other people decide to adopt senior dogs”
