ROCKY

Black and Tan German Shepherd

Meet Rocky! 🐾 D250212!

Rocky is a sweet and gentle soul who’s ready to find his forever family. At 6 years old, this handsome black and tan German Shepherd has a heart as big as his paws. He’s a total people dog who thrives on affection and loves being part of the action, especially if food is involved! Rocky is very food motivated, which makes training a fun and rewarding experience.

He does well with dogs after slow and proper introductions, and may be okay with small animals or cats with the right supervision and guidance. Due to his size, he’s best suited for a home without small children, not due to temperament but because he might accidentally knock them over with his enthusiasm.

Rocky will need a secure, fenced yard to keep him safe while he explores and stretches his legs. He’s the perfect companion for someone who’s experienced with shepherds or large breeds and is ready to offer him structure, patience, and love.

Are you the right person to give Rocky the forever home he’s been waiting for? 📷 Please include photos of your yard and fencing with your application. Let’s find this big hearted boy the forever home he deserves!
