Story
Hi, I'm Wilcrest. If you're a Houstonian, you may conclude how I got my name. I am sweet and shy at first but I'm friendly with cats, small dogs, and children. I love the safety of the my kennel and I even know where to go potty- outside! I am learning to walk on a leash and know that with practice, it'll be a perfect trip! I'm not too keen on being alone and will let you know. In order to be safe and secure, I need another pup in my forever home to help me come out of my shell. If you're looking for a companion to accompany you through life, I just might be your girl!

Story
Rocky won't ask you to take him to any parties. He is a shy, submissive loner who surprisingly doesn't like to be alone. He weighs 13 pounds and is a couch potato. He enjoys running, tugging, toys, walks, and chase. He wants to lead while on a leash. He's a good guard dog who is protective of his home. He is cautious, submissive, and jumpy around children as young as six but because of his fears and timidity he'll need to live with kids at least 15 years old so he isn't afraid. He is afraid of dogs and cats and didn't want either coming anywhere near his toys so he cannot live with a cat. He barks at dogs he meets during walks and plays rough with them at the dog park. You should consider bringing your dog to meet him as he might be happier being an only pet. He is house trained and spent his days either crated (where he feels safe) or in a room in his foster's home. In his originally home, he had free roam of the house and used a doggie dog to let himself out. His family gave him up because they moved to another country. He knows the come and no commands. He got into trouble for chewing, jumping, barking, and running away. He'll need time to warm up to you so please be patient. His foster said it took two weeks. If will be worth your while because then he will show affection and follow you everywhere. Please offer lovable Rocky the home and family he needs. (tw 5/1/2024)
