Rocky's Story

Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt your regularly scheduled cat videos to bring you a dog so handsome, he should be on the cover of Doberman Monthly. Prepare yourselves for Rocky, a stunning 2.5-year-old Doberman with a magnificent barrel chest and an irresistibly adorable nubbin of a tail that wags like a metronome on overdrive.<br/><br/>?Rocky is a world-class people-lover. Seriously, he thinks he's a 80-pound lap dog who hasn't fully mastered the concept of "personal space." He is an eager beaver for attention and will approach you like you're the last person on earth with opposable thumbs and a back-scratching hand. He's polite, he's enthusiastic, and he's basically a four-legged, velvety shadow.<br/><br/>?But let’s be honest about his one quirk: he is the definition of a 'Velcro Dog'—or perhaps more accurately, a 'Super Glue Dog.'?<br/>TRANSLATION: Rocky has a case of Separation Anxiety because, frankly, he thinks your life is just too boring to be lived without him. If you dare leave him alone, he will initiate "Operation: Great Escape" to come find you. Think Shawshank Redemption, but with less prison and more concerned neighbors watching a Doberman scale your fence.<br/><br/>?The Ideal Home<br/>?Because of his commitment to your presence, Rocky needs a very specific setup.<br/>?He needs an adopter who is home much of the time or works from home. You are his whole world, and he means that!<br/>?The Fortress: A secure yard is not a suggestion; it is the first commandment of the Rocky rulebook. If he can get out, he will get out in his quest to find you. Think high, solid, and escape-proof!<br/><br/>The Roommate Vetting Process (Rocky's Rules)<br/>?No Fuzzies or Farm Animals: His prey drive is, shall we say, enthusiastic. Therefore, a home with NO cats and NO livestock is mandatory. Rocky views small, furry things as "fast-food opportunities," and we need to keep everyone safe.<br/><br/>?Dog Friends: When it comes to canine companions, size matters (but not for the reason you think!). He finds little, frenetic small dogs overwhelming and they can be a trigger for him. He thrives with large dogs that have a calm, chill, and confident demeanor. If your current dog is a big, relaxed, "zen master" type, they might be his new best friend!<br/><br/>?Rocky is a big, loyal goofball just waiting for his person to start the endless snuggling. If you're looking for a stunning companion who will never, ever let you pee alone again, Rocky is your guy!<br/>?Think you're a perfect match for this handsome, high-need, heart-stealing Doberman?
