Rocky

Rocky is a beautiful lurcher cross who is really fed up of being stuck in kennels.  He loves people and having someone with him for cuddles.  He is very playful and loves running around in our paddock area but after a few bursts of energy he is shattered and likes to go back to his kennel to get cosy and comfy and take a nap.

He originally came into us via another rescue which was closing down and prior to this he was living with a family who fostered children and sadly through no fault of his own the family were no longer in a position to care for him.  He came in with his birth brother Joey but because of how strong and large they both are, we were struggling to find them a home together meaning that unfortunately we had to seperate them to better their chance of getting a home.

Rocky can be reactive towards other dogs when he is out and he will need some training to help him with this.  In kennels it is hard for us to put this into practice as the environment here can be noisy and stressful and he really needs to be out in a home.  He walks well on a lead but can be strong if he wants to be and he will need somebody strong that can manage him.
