My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rocky is a sweet boy who was found as a stray and stayed with his finders for two months before heading to the shelter. In that home he did well with kids, was housetrained, and was described as an affectionate and playful pup with a couch potato side. He did well with small dogs and was gentle and curious when meeting the pet bunny. He can be shy at first but warms up to new people over time (and with the offer of tasty treats).

Here’s what one volunteer at the shelter said:

“Rocky is a little shy but is a good walker. He takes treats gently and is a sweet boy.”

Rocky has been tolerant and independent when meeting other dogs in playgroup. He’d like to meet any resident dogs before heading home to make sure it’s a good fit. Ask to meet Rocky today!!
