My story

Hey there, future fam! Rocky here! Don’t let the name fool you—I'm definitely not a fighter, just a big softie with lots of love to give! I’m a sweet, loving senior guy with a heart of gold, and I can’t wait to find my forever home. I’m the ultimate smooth talker, always ready to shower you with kisses—hands, faces, you name it. Hugs, scratches, and snuggles are my love languages, and I’m always down to meet new friends. Now, let me tell you about my walking game—I’m a champion walker! You’d never guess I’m 9 years old because I could totally go the distance (yep, 3+ miles, no problem!). I’ve got impeccable leash manners, with the occasional speedy chase after a squirrel or bunny. But hey, who can blame me, right? When it comes to training, I’m pretty sharp—food is my motivation, obviously! I’ll keep you company in the kitchen (looking for sneaky snacks), and I might even try some counter-surfing if you leave any goodies unattended. No worries, though, I’m learning that people food is off-limits. I do love a good squeaky toy and puzzles, though—keeps my brain busy! I love being with my people, and after a nice walk, I’m all about snoozing at your feet. When I sleep, I sleep hard—I’m a solid 8-hour sleeper with zero complaints. But, full disclosure, I do get a bit punchy and anxious if left to roam around alone, so I’d love a home where I can keep an eye on you. Once I get the hang of things, I’ll know you’ll always come back! I’ll admit, I’m a bit dramatic about the crate ("Yo, Adrian! Awooo!"), but I’m getting better with it. A doggy door would be a plus while I figure out my signals for when I need to go out. I’m really good at coming when called, and I’m not the usual escape artist that most Huskies are. Oh, and I’m super chill with kids! I’m still learning boundaries with food and my space, so I would do best as the only dog in the home, with an experienced owner who can help me feel secure. I’m great with cats and really enjoy being around people! I’ve got a heart of gold, and I’m ready to be your forever friend. Let’s make this official—I’m ready to be your contender! ##2300336##

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Rocky, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
