Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

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

Rocky is a handsome 6.5 year old German Shepherd.
We live in San Francisco with 2 cats.
While fostering Rocky with a German Shepherd rescue organization,
I fell in love and adopted him.
Rocky likes people, especially those that like dogs!
On walks Rocky is friendly to people, but sometimes has anxiety toward
other dogs. Since working with a trainer, and socializing at doggie daycare,
Rocky is calmer toward other dogs on walks.
Rocky peacefully lived with another dog for 3 years.
Due to my aging, I have made the difficult decision to re-home Rocky to
a younger more active household. Since I am very attached, I am also open to sharing
Rocky within San Francisco. It would be a plus if his new guardians(s) has experience
and continues to enforce Rocky's training achievements.
He loves to run, play ball, and go for car rides!
He is very huggable.
Rocky answers sirens with a wolf howl!
Rocky is a happy dog with a smile that makes me smile.
