Rocky's Story

Rocky is one of a sibling pair of boys surrendered to HTP by their rescuer who found them on the side of the road. Both boys are beautiful dogs...and will be even more so once they gain more weight. They are very loving boys!<br/><br/>Rocky is the shy one...takes a little longer to warm up and is afraid of new things and experience, but is getting better. He is crate trained and working on house training. He loves to run and play in the fenced in yard with his brother Lil' Tyke and foster dog brother Jasper. He is also learning to walk on a leash and wearing a collar and harness for the first time is some adjustment. He rides nicely in a car, but needs to be picked up to go in and come out of the vehicle. Rocky does often follow the lead of his brother Lil' Tyke so we know he will learn these things quickly.
