About Rocky CA

Rocky CA is a neutered male German Shepherd with a tricolor coat of black, brown, and white. He is about three years old. Since being surrendered by his owner, Rocky initially struggled with the change, showing signs of stress. However, he has showcased significant improvement, now walking well on a leash and interacting positively with people. While he’s a bit shy, he warms up quickly and becomes affectionate. Rocky previously thrived in a playgroup with over eight dogs, displaying easygoing behavior and tolerating the various personalities around him. He is friendly with children but does not get along with cats. It’s also noted that he might be destructive when left outside alone, likely due to a history of excessive outdoor time without guidance. With training, he can develop good manners, which he already seems to have exhibited in recent interactions. Ready to welcome a loyal companion into your home? Apply now!
