Rock Lee

My story

Meet Rock Lee! Rock Lee is a special boy who needs a patient and experienced adopter to help him thrive. He is a Special Adoption due to fear-based reactivity and ongoing medical needs common to his breed, Rock Lee requires a calm, structured home environment. Rock Lee can be reactive to strangers and other dogs, especially on leash, where he may bark, growl, or lunge. He responds well to commands like sit, stay, down, come, heel, and paw, and is well-behaved when calm. He lives peacefully with children and has no aggression around food or toys. Medically, Rock Lee has recurring ear and skin infections likely caused by allergies. These will require ongoing treatment and a limited ingredient diet, so adopters should be prepared for the commitment. Rock Lee’s ideal home will introduce new people and dogs slowly and calmly, always with him on leash at first. Professional training support is highly recommended to help Rock Lee adjust and manage his behaviors. If you have the experience, time, and love to dedicate to this special guy, Rock Lee could be your loyal companion. Please read his notes carefully and consider if you’re the right fit for his unique needs.If you’d like to meet our available pets, please check the “shelter information” box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton).
