My story

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

We recently discovered rocky does not do well with small children. I have a 1 year old and we live in a small space, we can no longer live as a cohesive unit ,due to some of rocky's fear aggression based behavior. He is a sweet dog with some weird quirks. He is scared of his own shadow. He loves to lay down and snuggle. He is a sweet boy but we need to find him a new home with no children. He has never acted on these aggressions, but I'm afraid our house is too small for him and it's not fair to keep him outside all day or locked away. He gets along great with other dogs of all sizes. He has never been around cats. He doesn't eat very much and he does not require alot of exercise. He's a bundle of love and joy in the right setting. He does pretty well on car rides and he isn't scared to go to the vet! He does have some skin issues, lots of itching and redness around his paws during allergy season. Call/ Text 732-644-4359 for questions!
