Rocky is the family dog of the Takizawa household, a small everyday pet woven into the domestic life surrounding investigator Seidou Takizawa. He is an ordinary animal rather than any creature of the ghoul world.
Rocky is a little dog of no stated breed, coated in short brown and white fur. His ears stand upright, his tail is cropped short, and a red collar sits around his neck.
There is nothing unusual about Rocky. He behaves like any household pet, warm toward the people he belongs to and forever angling for a bit of attention.
