ROCKY's Story

Hello! As you can see, I am a very handsome gentleman. I'm full of love, but that love does not always extend to other dogs. I may do best as the only dog in a home. And, if you leave a gate open, I know how to run free and find ways to get into trouble - please make sure my outdoor enclosures are secure. I'm excited to find people that will love me and I hope you'll give me a chance to impress you! Insights from my adventure buddies and foster friends: He was the sweetest boy ever! Just wants to be loved! He did not respond as well to treats as much as he did a positive phrase. He is very cuddly and loves to take naps but it also energetic enough that he loved to go on a walk too. This dog is absolutely fantastic I could not say more positive things, he is such a sweet soul who wants someone to love. He’s the sweetest dog ever loves people and very chill and loves pup cups. We walked a trail and he was a great walking dog and didn’t bark and loved people. He’s perfect and so sweet. Rocky was a rockstar! Very sweet, cuddly, and inquisitive. Don’t let him fool you into thinking he is not interested in treats—he actually just wants a place at the table, and will wait until you sit down to eat to gobble up his own food. Rocky couldn’t wait to go on walks and did a happy dance whenever we took out his harness. He is an easy walker and will fish for compliments from strangers, but he doesn’t mingle with other dogs. At home Rocky is the cutest. Although he may seem pretty independent and can keep himself occupied with a nice window, he melts into a puddle of love and slobber when you give him attention and praise. He loves his chew toys, but was indifferent about tennis balls. He will take lots of naps on the couch, and loves it most of all when you are cuddling with him for nap time! When you go to another room, he will periodically come and check on you and then go back to his spot! My adoption fee has been fully sponsored. Adopt me and pay $0.00!!!
