Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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

Rocky is a beautiful active dog who needs wide open spaces with other large dogs and an experienced trainer. This dog is probably smarter and stronger than you! But he will excel at agility. He loves kids but is currently too boisterous around small kids, and in particular, my 12 pound dog.
Rocky is a Lapponian Herder and has longer hair that is quite sheddy. He has strong herding instincts. He is also a cuddly silly boy, is happily crate and house trained. He needs to work on leash manners.
Unfortunately I have a new job that is 25% travel and he is not living his best life in our small house.
