Rocky

My story

Meet Rocky, a spirited and lovable 4-year-old pup who came to us all the way from Georgia in search of his perfect forever home. With his high energy and playful personality, Rocky is always ready for an adventure and would do best in an active household that can match his zest for life. A fenced-in yard is highly recommended for this guy—he thrives when he has space to run, explore, and get his energy out. Rocky is a huge fan of toys and will happily entertain himself or play with you for hours. He’s also dipped his paws into pool life and has swum before, so if you have a pool, don’t be surprised if he wants to join you for a splash! Rocky is strong on a leash and can be a bit of a puller when he’s excited, so continued leash training will be important to help him become a better walking partner. He already knows some basic commands like “sit” and is eager to please, so with consistent guidance, he’s capable of learning so much more. When it comes to potty habits, Rocky is considered house-trained as long as he’s given a chance to go outside shortly after eating. While Rocky has a big heart and lots of love to give, he can be dog selective. Because of this, we strongly recommend slow, proper introductions with any potential canine siblings to ensure a good match. He’s not the kind of dog you can throw into a dog park and expect things to go perfectly—but with the right approach, he can get along with other dogs. Rocky will do best with someone who understands his energy level and is willing to give him structure, training, and a whole lot of love. If you’re looking for a loyal, active, and fun-loving companion who’s full of personality, Rocky might just be the one for you. He’s ready to start the next chapter of his life—could it be with you?
