About

Rocky is a handsome, intelligent boy looking for a special home with an experienced and dedicated owner who can see past his challenges and appreciate the wonderful companion he can be. Rocky would do best in an adult-only home and would prefer to be the only pet, where he can have the space and stability he needs to thrive. He struggles with strangers and has a history resource guarding behaviors, so he will need a patient, understanding adopter who is willing to continue working with him on his training and help him build confidence. While Rocky may take time to trust new people, those who earn his trust quickly discover what a loyal, affectionate, and rewarding dog he is. Once he's comfortable, Rocky loves spending time with his people and forms strong bonds with those he knows and trusts. And he can have a bit of playful side to him as well! Rocky isn't looking for a perfect owner - he's looking for the right one. Someone who understands that behavioral challenges don't define a dog and is committed to giving him the guidance, structure, and support he needs to succeed. If you're willing to invest the time and patience Rocky deserves, you'll gain a devoted best friend who will be incredibly grateful for the chance to finally have a place to call home.
