Story
Rocky is a professional heart-melter who will instantly steal your love with his big, soulful brown eyes and a serious talent for giving the sloppiest, wettest kisses. He is the ultimate loyal companion who thrives on human connection, wanting nothing more than to make you the center of his entire universe. Rocky is the perfect sidekick for cozy evenings; his absolute favorite activity is sitting right next to you on the couch, happily chewing his favorite toy while you watch your favorite TV shows. He craves physical closeness and will happily chill for hours as long as you keep a hand resting on him or give him his favorite back scratches. Because he thrives so beautifully one-on-one, he is looking to be the exclusive "king of the castle" as your only pet. In return for that title, he promises to pay you back with 100% of his devotion, endless loyalty, and a joyful, rambunctious welcome party every single time you walk through the front door.
Beyond his deeply affectionate personality, Rocky is an incredibly well-mannered and easy-to-manage dog who has already mastered the basics of home living. He is fully potty trained, knows his basic commands, and is highly motivated by treats, making him a dream to handle. He is also an absolute superstar when it comes to his crate, viewing it as his personal safety zone where he can fully relax and feel secure. When it is bedtime, he sleeps soundly through the night without a single cry or whine—all you need to do is place a blanket cover over his crate to keep him peaceful until morning. While he can occasionally get over-excited or a little rambunctious when his favorite people are around, he is remarkably easy to redirect simply by showing him his beloved toy chicken. Rocky is the rare package of a trained, well-behaved dog who also possesses an ocean of love to give, making him the perfect match for anyone ready to be completely adored by their best friend.

Fenced Yard Required: He has a playful, athletic side and absolutely loves to run, so a securely fenced-in yard is a must for him to burn off energy safely.
Maintain Crate Structure: It is highly recommended to keep him crate trained. The crate gives him the physical boundaries and security he needs to stay balanced, relaxed, and structured.
Managing Excitement & Nipping: Rocky gets incredibly hyper and overcome with joy when you first come home or let him out of his crate. He will literally jump right into your arms to lick your face! Because his excitement levels peak during greetings, he can occasionally nip by accident out of pure over-arousal.
