My story

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

Rocky’s here ready to rock your world! In his own kind and gentle way that is. He’s very sweet and friendly and has great manners. You can tell he’s used to a home environment because he hops right up into the chairs in our play yard unprompted and sits like such a gentleman. He also already knows how to sit and lay on command for a treat. He loves his treats and always takes them gently from your hand. He’s a good listener – especially when there’s a treat on the line! Rocky is quite attentive and focused when you have a treat for him, but he’s also happy to entertain himself. He’s got a lower energy level and comes across as very easygoing. Rocky is a very good boy on leash. He’s easy to leash up and take out, and walks well without pulling. He does sometimes gently jump up on you, but it’s usually to give you a hug or check out the treat you’re holding. Even when jumping up he’s calm and gentle. He’s all about the pets and ear scratches if you have the time. He’s even been known to allow snoot kisses!
