Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rocky is a West Highland Terrier/Poodle mix. He is 4 years old and weighs 17 lbs. He was surrendered for biting a child. Rocky was a bit snappy at first with strangers coming to the home. Initially he was high energy, mouthy and a little pushy for attention but he has improved so much and really settled down. He enjoys meeting other dogs on his walks and hanging out with them. He is very possessive about his toys so we recommend that he only have toys in his crate until he learns how to share. He is shy, silly and has a very affectionate, snuggly nature. We think he may shed. Rocky has high puppy energy even though he is an adult. He is a real boy and likes to mark his territory; he is housebroken much of the time but not 100%. He barks at noises or people in the street or if someone is at the door. He is a chewer so must always have something to nosh on, toy or rawhide, or his attention may wander to other things he is not supposed to chew. He gets along very well with other dogs in the home if they don't try to play with his toys. . We do not recommend Rocky for a home with small kids.
