My story

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

Rocky is a 16 month old male neutered Shih Tzu mix. He’s a fun and happy guy with a lot of energy! He loves to play fetch with his favorite toys, go on walks, and he’s eager to learn and please! Rocky is super smart and has picked up on basic commands such as sit, come, stay, lie down, and go to crate. He even “asks” to be let up on the sofa when it’s time to relax at the end of the day. Rocky thrives on routine and structure. We are looking for a savvy adopter who will continue to provide Rocky with a structured environment to ensure his success in his new home! Rocky gets along well with other dogs, but can be a little pushy if a dog is very timid. We have not cat tested him. He will not be allowed to go to a home with children even though he seems to really adore them. He is crate trained and house trained. Rocky has a few behavior issues we are happy to discuss with a potential adopter but we are confident his issues can be overcome! We will require training classes with a reputable dog trainer when he is adopted to ensure his good behavior is reinforced.
