Rocket (now Rocky)

My story

PICK ME! PICK ME!I’m Rocky, named after “Rocky Top,” one of Tennessee’s official state songs! The lifestyle of my adoptive family changed after three years, so they honored their adoption contract and tearfully returned me to FOCCAS with my toys, food, bed, the blanket I like to carry around (and guard when there’s a vacuum cleaner nearby). And to tell you the truth, I’m ready to find my real FOREVER family immediately! I’ll let you in on a few secrets: I’m not quite five years old, so I’m mature enough to have some manners but young and high-energy enough to bring spirited joy to your day! I’m already neutered, house trained, crate trained, harness-trained, and microchipped. I get monthly doses of parasite preventatives, so I’m flea/tick/worms negative (including heartworms). I LOVE to cuddle on the sofa, chase bubbles and butterflies outside, and play “flying disk” in a fenced yard (and even bring it back to you for another toss—check out my videos at https://youtube.com/shorts/Yklw_HMr_N0?feature=share and https://youtube.com/shorts/eBqrKNrS1zc?feature=share ). I can’t speak your language but I can help you understand mine through mumblings and body motions (watch me extend an invitation to play flying disk in the snow-- https://youtube.com/shorts/y28r_o990Ac?feature=share ). I enjoy having a fenced yard to keep me safe and the companionship of other dogs and people of all ages (though car rides make me nervous). I know several commands (including sit, down, stay, spin, shake, catch, “leave it” -- https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mzVe3TBQwag?feature=share and https://www.youtube.com/shorts/y1XTC9Rhz4k?feature=share ) and am food-motivated; so I’m eager to learn more. My former mom bragged that I’m the “perfect dog”! If you’re looking for fun, love, smarts and devotion, you’ve come to the right place. Apply today to see if you’re my perfect match!
