Meet Rocky

Meet Rocky, possibly part Jack Russell terrier. He weighs around 10# and is 1 to 2 years old. Rocky has been with PPAWS since September 1st.
When he came he was very fearful. The major trait that you would have to accept is that he is very shy to most people. He sometimes barks and growls at new people to get them to go away. Making new friends is very difficult for him. It would be at least a week before he could show that he trusts you and wag his happy tail. He would hide in his kennel if you kept an eye on him. While not being watched, he will explore.
What Rocky needs is a daily structure. Doing the same thing day after day.
To help with his fearfulness Rocky’s forever home would be best to have a partner dog, to help guide him how a dog fits into your home, he would love a fenced yard to do his exploring and squirrel chasing. Small or young children can be somewhat unpredictable, so probably best he not live with small children.
As you can see, this boy is special and will take a very special home. He loves to snuggle on his foster mom's lap when she sits down to watch tv. If you think you are interested in finding out more about Rocky. Please fill out an application.
