Rocky has been part of our family since July 2020. Not only is he beautiful and athletic (he loves to run!), he is smarter than average and keeps us on our toes. He is curious about everything, especially what you're doing at any given moment. He's a real "man's dog" and would like nothing more than to hang out with the guys in a garage drinking beer or riding in a car. Don't worry ladies he will also steal your heart. Right now he is in my lap trying to convince me that he's a lap dog. He loves our other dog Aly and he respects/fears our cat (and she knows it). Not all dogs tolerate him and vice versa. Rocky needs a home without children and should not have child visitors. He needs to be introduced properly to all guests on leash. We prefer to muzzle him until he calms. He has formal training and has an E collar. He will need a large fenced area. We love Rocky but we acknowledge that he needs low stress home that a military family cannot create.
