Rocky is a great boy who just needs more activity than we can give him. We have had Rocky for 3 years and he’s the best. Unfortunately we aren’t home enough to give him the home he deserves. We are very saddens we need to give him up to someone who can tend to his needs more then we can but know Rocky deserves so much more.
