Rocky's Story

Rocky is 2 years old and gives a full body wiggle greeting to everyone he knows! He loves going to the parks and dog friendly stores. He is very easy on a leash and non-reactive towards other dogs or people. He even walked quietly through a yoga class in a park! <br/><br/>Rocky was scheduled to be euthanized at a shelter on the day rescue pulled him out. He had a rough start in life but once realizing what it felt like to be washed and clean and receive regular meals, petting and walks he blossomed into an amazing happy and loving dog! His splayed toes are signs of vit D and calcium deficiency as a pup, but it does not hinder any part of his walking or play. He looooves to chase after toys in the house as well as cozy up for tv time! Despite his breed mix, he is a calm guy who is very relaxed and just enjoys simple attention. He isnt looking for a job...he is looking for relaxed outtings at an enjoyable pace with lots of love given to him. <br/>He was afraid of cats when tested with them. Fenced yard required. <br/><br/> if interested in adopting, please contact irondawgs13@gmail.com for adoption application
