Meet Rocky 🐕
Yellow Lab mix | Tough Name, Zero Toughness | Sit Icon
Let’s address the elephant in the room: his name is Rocky, but this man has never fought a single battle in his life—unless you count his ongoing war against boredom, personal space, and not being pet right now.
Rocky is extremely affectionate. He loves people with the intensity of someone who’s just had three energy drinks and found out you’re his best friend. Personal space? Cancelled. Calm behavior? Optional. Playtime? Mandatory. If joy were an Olympic sport, Rocky would accidentally knock over the podium and still win gold.
Despite his action-movie name, Rocky’s greatest talent is not boxing, climbing mountains, or training montages. It’s sitting. This dog sits like he’s posing for a Renaissance painting. Like his entire life has been leading up to this one command. Ask him to sit and he’ll slam that booty down with purpose and pride.
So if you’re looking for a tough, brooding “Rocky,” keep looking. If you want a goofy, lovable, bouncy yellow Lab mix who will adore you forever and sit like an absolute legend—this Rocky is ready for adoption.
No stairs. No punches. Just vibes 🐾💛
Dogs: HECK YES!! We always recommend a meet & Greet!
Cats: Unknown
Kids: Unknown, we always recommend bringing the whole family in to meet this guy!!
