Rocky - Border Collie and Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Bristol, Tennessee

Rocky was pulled from the shelter on his D-Day, along with his housemate sister Grace. Both had Malnutrition and upper respiratory infections, were extraordinarily scared and nervous. Once settled into his foster home he became a happy tailwagging guy who looooved his first bath ever! He is gaining weight and should be about 50# when fully filled out. He is 2 years old, learning housetraining and is wary of visitors but comes around once they earn his trust. He loves his lil sister who is 20# and a sheltie/papillion mix and they play and wrestle and sleep together.
Rocky needs a fenced yard, healthy diet, active lifestyle, and people who understand his need for trusting them before approaching them. He has a beautiful smile and happy energy once he relaxes and settles in. if interested in adopting, please contact irondawgs13@gmail.com for adoption application
