Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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

Rocky is seven years old. He loves attention and play.
He was adopted from the SPCA after being owned by a single older woman. He was my husband’s buddy in his retirement.
My husband has recently passed and my family is spread out across the country. I need to rehome Rocky to allow me to visit my kids.
Rocky does not like fireworks or thunderstorms....he seems to be unsettled and shakes when he hears them.
He doesn’t understand how to get along with very young children, but is okay with adults and older kids.
He loves to lay by a window and keep an eye on things, he is a good watch dog and will let you know if there is anything happening in the yard. He loves to sleep on the corner of your bed at night, and will sit on your lap. He loves walks and trips to the dog park.
He love treats, and knows a number of commands: “sit, stay, come, down”.
He travels well...loves to go “bye-bye”.
He will become your “buddy” very quickly.
