Hi! I am energetic young man who LOVES to spend time with people, going on walks, and playing with other dogs my size. I would love a home who is looking for a companion to snuggle!
MEET ROCKY!
More about Rocky
Goofy, silly, playful, energetic, snuggly—all words that describe Rocky! Rocky is a fun guy who delights all the humans who come in contact with him. He is very people-social and never turns down a good lap. He will lean into all the pets and ask for more.
Rocky enjoys playing with toys, and can really get into it. Sometimes the noises he makes can come across as scary but he is just being playful and having fun! (Even if he’s a tad vocal and other enthusiastic about it.) He enjoys playing fetch and LOVES a good game of tug.
Rocky has a brother, Bullwinkle, who is also adoptable. It is possible that they would do well being adopted as a pair, if there is enough space in the home for them to choose to be together when they want to and separate if they need their space. Here at POOCH we have found that both dogs enjoy their individual time and like to play occasionally, but can get frustrated when forced to be in enclosures together.
Rocky can be reactive to larger dogs, but has been working with the youth to stay focused on his handlers and learn to ignore other dogs when out and about.
