A Gift for your donation

If you donate $25 or more, you get a 2.75" x 3.5" ornament of Rocky (with hanging ribbon), painted on 140lb archival watercolor paper by illustrator and artist Lisa Nelson. She will write your preferred message on the back.

At checkout, we offer to either hang it on The Phinney's Angels Tree until the end of January 2021, or mail it now to you or anyone you would like. The ornaments hung on the tree are laminated. Visit the Phinney's Angels Tree at The Pierce Park at 17 Weston Rd, Lincoln, MA. 

Rocky, a 14-year-old Maltese, is a pure charmer and all-around sweet boy. Right before Rocky was adopted, some five years ago, he had surgery to correct an oral fistula and dental issues, and that’s why his little tongue still hangs out when he’s sniffing around. 

Even though he experiences crusting in his eyes and is slowing down a bit because of age, that hasn’t stopped him from living his best life with his dad, Rick. Now during his golden years, he often prefers to “do his business” at home rather than trekking down 14 stories out of his apartment building. So little Rocky gives a sincere tag wag to newspapers or pee pads.

Rocky can be a picky eater regarding kibble, but he’s always up for a table scrap of hamburger! This cuddler with a particular affinity for his stuffed orange giraffe loves taking a snooze and being picked up for human hugs. 

Years ago, it was written on Rocky’s “permanent record” that he doesn’t like cats, but we’ve got intel that he sometimes can be spotted playing with his kitty sisters Lily and Lotus, who ooze purrsonality! 

Through Phinney’s support, Rocky gets the prescription eye drops he needs to keep his eyes clean, as well as dog food and vet visits. 

Help Rocky continue to be happy and safe with Rick
