My story

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

Rockette loves to play ball, train with treats, and play with squeaky toys. She is a cuddle bug and loves to sit with her people, often rolling over for belly rubs and giving kisses as a thank you. She would benefit from a large yard and would likely excel if given a job to do. Rockette seems to want to please those she is around. As a treat motivated dog, it is likely that she will continue to learn with enthusiasm. She is an active girl who will love daily walks, active engagement and socialization, and as many hikes as her family can go on. She is a mountain girl through and through and we can't wait to see her journey with you!

Age: 3 Years
Other Dogs: Yes
Cats: Yes
Kids: Yes, we think she will do well with kids. Sweet, can be jumpy.
Weight: 45 pounds
Leash behavior: Walks fairly well on leash. Occasionally pulls but is responsive.
Home Type: Active
Fencing: Secure fencing required
