My story

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

Anyone else hearing 'Eye of the Tiger'? Our former heavyweight champion, Rocky, is looking for a comeback and needs your help to get back to his best. HSOP is just not equipped for training world champions, but report that his current workout is a brisk walk on a leash, multiple sniff reps followed by 30 sec reps of sit and hold.
Rocky isn't all tough guy, though. He is looking for his Adrian, some one to scratch his back and that can be his family. Rocky is currently around 58lbs, 1.5 years. He did come in with a training partner, Duke, and may be willing to join an existing training team but HSOP staff can help facilitate that introduction.
