My personality

Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Rocky is 5 years old.
We acquired him from family friends who still have his parents.
He is a loyal companion.
Protective. Alerts us when someone is in the yard, at the door, etc.
Craves attention. Needs to be with a family that is home with him often.
Loves to play fetch. Loves massages. Loves treats. Loves walks. Loves car rides.
His best friend is our cat.
He is house trained, he will let us know when he has to go, but when we are gone for an extended period of time, he will potty in the house. We recently started putting him in a kennel when we are going to be gone for more than a couple hours.
We are a busy family and feel that Rocky deserves to be with a family that can give him more attention.
His biggest downfall is that he is food aggressive. If he finds human food or we drop human food and he gets ahold of it he becomes aggressive if we try to take it away, so we don’t try to anymore.
