Looking for an adventure buddy? Need that buddy to be dog friendly and fun? Like a Velcro dog devoted to you and anything you want to do? Then you’ve got to meet Rocky! This big boy still has a little bit of growing to do but he’s ready to bring his enthusiastic puppy vibrance to you! Full of energy, curiosity, and playfulness. He lives for canine companionship and hasn’t met a dog he doesn’t love. In fact, he’d thrive best in a home with another playful dog and a large yard to zoom around in. While Rocky is all tail wags with other dogs, he’s more cautious around humans, especially men. But with just a little time and patience that trust builds and he becomes your shadow fully devoted to those who’ve given him time to trust.
We don’t know much about Rocky’s past but what we do know is likely the reason he’s so insecure around strangers. Rocky wasn’t a loved member of a family he was a dog discarded alone in the rural orchards and left for dead. Still a puppy at that time we can’t imagine how scary and hopeless he must have felt. And if he was discarded like trash how was he treated when he did have a home? We can only speculate and work towards giving this sweet, goofy boy every positive experience he missed in his puppy years.
Rocky is thriving in foster care. He’s quickly bonded to the canine buddies in the home and fully trusts his foster family happily following them from room to room. He is high energy pup and would do best in an active household with at least one other confident, fun, playful dog. Rocky is both house trained and crate trained, and he loves being indoors where he feels safe and part of the family. While he’s still timid with a lead/leash, he’s getting more comfortable and is making steady progress, especially using a harness. He’s incredibly smart and wants to connect and please so badly. If you’re ready to give Rocky the time, patience, and love he deserves, he’ll reward you with unending loyalty. He’s not just looking for a home he’s looking for a family. Could you give him the home and family he’s never had? If you are interested in adopting a Marley's Mutts please fill out an application at http://marleysmutts.org/adoptionprocess/
