Rocky is a neutered male, black and brown germ shepherd 3 Years.

Allows leashing, walks well on leash. Socialwith people, a bit on the shy side. Was in dogplaygroup, did well, was neutral and able to becoexist nicely with a group of 8+ dogs in theyard! 

He was surrendered to the shelter by his owner just over 11 days ago and as his world turned upside down, Rocky fell apart. After his owner handed him over, Rocky started barking and growling in his receiving kennel. He had to be catchpoled for vaccines and to be moved into his new kennel His very understandable reaction to losing everything he loved and being in a new, scary place earned him the notes “staff only.”

This is not the Rocky we met yesterday. Rocky came out of his kennel with ease and walked amazing on leash! He was a little shy at first and remained pretty mellow for our whole interaction. He did warm up and become more affectionate as time progressed.

Per his owner, Rocky is friendly with all people INCLUDING CHILDREN!! He is not good with cats. They also say that Rocky is destructive when left outside alone, but judging by the flystrike on his ears, he was outside alone a LOT. They say he needs training and has no manners, but I didn’t see any evidence of that. He was a very good boy!

Rocky was in a large playgroup with other dogs, including a dog who is about 30 pounds. He was easygoing, tolerant, and neutral. He did run with the dogs for a little bit but mostly just wanted to hang out.
