Description
Posted Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Are you looking for an adventure partner? A couch cuddler? A handsome hunk of a dog? Rocky is all that and more! Like many rescue dogs, Rocky had a rough start in life; he once knew the love & comfort of couch cuddling but due to no fault of his own, found himself alone, in a backyard at the end of a chain and then spending the next 1 ½ years in a local shelter. Rocky was very stressed yet loving when he finally went into his current foster home and has been a wonderful house guest ever since. The goal now is to help Rocky feel safe and secure while still giving him the necessary structure that most dogs need. Building his confidence and teaching him how to respond to stimulating situations will help Rocky be his best self. Recently, Rocky was able to spend time with a wonderful local trainer who built upon the skill set that DITR volunteers and his foster mom were teaching him. He has been practicing ‘place’, ‘wait’, ‘leave it’, ‘drop it’, ‘stay’, ‘heel’ and learning how to manage stimulating situations (other dogs, squirrels, cats, house guests). Rocky is very smart, eager to please, extremely food motivated and responsive to training. There have never been any issues with Rocky’s love of people including children – except that he thinks he is the size of a cat. He literally will try to curl upon your lap – all 65 lbs of him, or stretch himself across whatever you are doing on the couch. Or throw his paws around your neck if you are sitting – so again, this is where training can be helpful with a dog of his size. Rocky rarely barks and will spend long periods of time chewing his bone or kong (filled with peanut butter). Rocky is wonderful in his crate and will race to it because he knows he is getting a snack! He really just wants to be with his people and can be quite mellow. If you are interested in meeting Rocky, please fill out an adoption application online on our official website.
