Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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

Rocco is an 11 month old border collie mix. He is full of energy and has so much love to give to the right person. He’s good with kids and loves nothing more than to run with them and help them dig holes and jump in puddles. He loves water and has been known to jump in the tub while someone is getting a bath. He’s a high energy puppy who loves the outside and could spend hours there. If he doesn’t get a good amount of playtime he can become destructive.

He’s a good boy who could use some basic training and table manners. He hasn’t learned not to steal food if you walk away from it. He can be a counter surfer too. He is usually timid at first around new people but once he warms up to you, he’ll want to follow you everywhere.

Unfortunately our older male dog doesn’t like him. He’s a grumpy old man. And they’ve gotten into a few tussles. I can’t stand the thought of either of them or our kids getting hurt, so we had to make the difficult decision to rehome him.
