My story

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

Rocky is a big sweet boy who likes everyone, especially other dogs. He is a gentle soul and just likes everyone to get along. He hasn't had much training, but we are working on that. He now gladly goes into his crate for his biscuit reward, and also goes outside to potty and is oh so proud of himself now!

3 years old
75 lbs.
House & Crate Trained
Microchipped & Neutered
Seems ok with cats, needs supervision
Good with other dogs
Not tested with young children
Heartworm Positive - slow kill treatment

Rocky is filling out so he will easily weigh 80lbs or more. He is a big guy and is full grown, but has missed a few meals in his life. Sadly, Rocky is heartworm positive but we are taking care of that, doing the slow kill method on him and he is doing very well.

Heartworm treatment is very expensive, well over our adoptions fees, but we can't let dogs die of this treatable condition. If only people would give their dogs the monthly preventative we wouldn't have to see this. Once the treatment is done he will have no lasting affects at all. If you would like to include Rocky in your household please fill out an application, he is waiting to meet you!

If you are interested in adopting Rocky please go to our website, copy, paste and complete our adoption application. Email the application to gsdrescuectx@yahoo.com.
