Doggie Details
Dogs Are Deserving Foster Observations
Rocky is a big ol' sweetheart. He loves love and just wants to snuggle. Rocky also likes to go for walks and does great on a leash. He is such a good boy, follows directions and listens well. He is chill yet playful. Loves toys especially ones with squeakers. Definitely a couch dog and wants to be right up next to you. He is house trained and can hold it for 4-5 hours when needed.
Rocky does seem to prefer women. He does ok with older men (60's+) but has a hard time with young men seeming scared and barking a lot. There has been improvement with men he has had frequent exposure to. Rocky has some skin issues and does need frequent medicated baths. Rocky is very well mannered and gentle and easily allows caregiving activities.
