My story

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

Foster notes, 4/30/24:
Rocky is extremely calm, loyal, affectionate, and sweet to anyone who he is comfortable around. Once he loves you, he always will. He is very laid back and loves belly rubs and going on walks.
He is uncomfortable around strangers and is protective of his people. He also does not play well with other animals. Although he can be defensive and assertive with other people/animals, Rocky is an amazing and loving dog when in the right environment. Rocky is house-trained and is very well-behaved when left alone in the house. He is very calm and never barks. Rocky walks extremely well on the leash, and he knows the commands “sit” and “stay”. Rocky does not do well with other animals and should go to an home with no other pets. I know when the right family gives Rocky a chance, they will absolutely fall in love with him.
