Rocky is an active and vocal beagle who landed here after his previous owner realized he needed more attention and engagement than they could offer. He thrives on play, especially games like keep away, and keeps staff on their toes with his spirited energy. Rocky’s personality shines once you get to know him—he’s lively, clever, and genuinely affectionate in his own beagle way. Some experience with beagles is handy, but not mandatory; it just helps make sense of his quirks a little faster. He does have some food guarding tendencies, so a home where he can be the only pet or one with dog-savvy adults or older kids is ideal. Rocky tolerates cats, but only just—if you’ve got cats, they’ll need to be pretty dog-savvy themselves. He isn’t house trained yet, so patience and structure will be essential. Everyone in the household should plan to meet him before moving forward with adoption. As an Aries, Rocky brings all the boldness you’d expect from his sun sign. Ready to meet your new best friend?
