My story

Animal ID: 945873 How this pet arrived: This pet was brought in by their previous owner on May 31, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Say hello to Rocky Balboa! This outgoing guy is ready to hang up his title as outdoor champ and step into the ring of indoor living. With limited history around other dogs and no known experience with cats, Rocky would benefit from slow, thoughtful introductions to any potential furry housemates. He's a strong, enthusiastic walker who could use a refresher in leash manners-let's just say he's got that forward momentum thing down. As a former outdoor dog, Rocky Balboa is still learning about the comforts (and rules!) of indoor life, so a patient and active home will set him up for success. Due to his impulsive nature, Rocky needs a home with children over the age of 5 and a lifestyle that includes plenty of physical and mental enrichment. Think walks, runs, hikes, K9 sports, puzzle feeders, chew toys-this smart cookie is up for all of it. Ready to go a few rounds with Rocky? Bring a leash, a collar, and take this champ home today! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home! Primary Color: Black Weight: 84.6 Age: 2yrs 0mths 2wks

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Rocky Balboa, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
