Rocky was kept outside in a pen for the first 9 months of his life, before he found himself a the home of a SPOT volunteer. She intended to keep him, but has come to the realization that, at age 76, he is too youthful and active for her. He loves her other dogs and her cats and is friendly with everyone. He jumps up on people and needs proper housetraining (she keeps pee pads down so he is confused about the other dogs urinating on them), He sleeps in a crate at night and when left alone. Rocky is fun, energetic and smart. He will be a great family dog and friend.
