About Rocky

Meet Rocky! Rocky is a loyal, adventurous German Shepherd who relishes classic activities like playing fetch, chasing bugs in the yard, and enjoying long walks. This seven-year-old has excellent house manners and knows basic commands. Rocky benefits from professional e-collar training and prefers staying close to his people, cherishing quiet moments of affection, though he does not like being picked up or handled roughly. He can be protective of his home and family, alerting you with a bark when strangers approach. However, he has a gentle heart for children and gets along well with other dogs, especially enjoying playtime with Golden Retrievers and smaller breeds. Rocky thrives in an active household with a securely fenced yard where he can explore safely. Despite being born without two toes on one of his back feet, this does not hinder his zest for life.
