My story

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

We rescued Rocky July '24 and have been trying to make it work ever since, but we're just not a good fit for each other! Rocky would do best living with another, less anxious dog - one that can help give him a great daily workout of playtime, which he adores. Rocky is smart, super athletic, and very loving with his core family (and his toys). He doesn't guard food or toys. He doesn't trust anyone outside of that circle, though, and is protective in situations when he meets strangers while on leash or while at home. He will not let someone just walk into the house. They must be slowly introduced to him. He will guard his home, and he will guard us (if he's on leash) but when he is on someone else's property (off leash) or at the dog park, he's a different dog! No signs of behavioral issues in those environments. Rocky is also VERY athletic and strong. He jumped our yard wall and chased deer, so he needs a tall fence enclosure.
