Rocky's Story

NOTE: Please read our entire write-up before contacting us. If you don't know the age, breed, weight, what vet care we provide our dogs, the adoption fee, or how to apply, you have not read the write-up.<br/><br/>Rocky <br/><br/>Breed: Standard Poodle or Aussipoo<br/>DOB: 3-15-2024<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Weight: ~ 60 pounds<br/>Microchipped<br/>Adoption Fee: $400<br/><br/>Wow. Rocky has to be one of the most beautiful poodles we've seen in a while! He's simply gorgeous! We could gaze upon his beauty for hours. Then when we met him we learned he was just as nice as he was attractive!<br/><br/>This big boy is looking for an adult home that's good on their feet. He walks on a leash, but is big enough and enough of a dope that he can pull you sideways if not careful. He is getting better on the leash and does respond to correction, but he needs folks who can continue his basic manners, including leash manners. He's a very smart dog and catches on quickly. Plan on a year of dedicated training and this guy will be a master of every command you could think of! A real brainiac!<br/><br/>While it was suggested Rocky was a pure standard poodle, his coat is merle, which means his line was bred out at some point to give the coat color- likely to Australian Shepherd lines. Therefore, we have included Australian Shepherd/poodle as possible breed. <br/><br/><br/>Good w/ Other Dogs- Yes<br/>Good w/ Cats- Unknown<br/>Energy Level- Moderate<br/>Children- Teens<br/>Grooming Needs- High<br/>Walks on Leash- Yes<br/>Special Needs- No<br/>Knows basic commands- Learning (you are expected to continue training)<br/>Experienced Home- Required<br/>Good First Time Dog- We are seeking experienced home<br/>Rides well in car- Yes<br/>Crate Trained- Yes<br/>Low Allergen- Yes<br/>Good apartment dog- No<br/>Fenced Yard- Preferred<br/><br/>Adoptive homes within 1 hour of Raleigh, NC area only.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting this pet, please copy and paste this link to our adoption survey into your browser: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSczh9StAiRY4XnFt79xI3aCGpyhMh0Kg5UzQo0a3CyVWhP9Fw/viewform?usp=sf_link<br/><br/>Meetings with our pets, outside adoption events, are currently made only with an approved adoption survey.<br/><br/>All HEART dogs have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated for rabies, bordatella, distemper, parvo, adenovirus, and hepatitis.
